Tuaropaki Trust - Sustainable Farming

Sustainable Farming

 

The farm management team is headed by Peter Keeling of Wilson Keeling Farm Consultants, Te Kuiti. There are two business units, the sheep, cattle and deer breeding and fattening (the station) and the dairy farm.

Dairy Farm

The dairy farm is operated under a 50/50 share milking agreement, whereby the Trust provides the land and pasture and sharemilkers Alex and Chereese Henare the cows and management. The dairy farm occupies 23% of farm land area and is currently milking 1350 cows on a milking area of 510 hectares. To enable more cows to be milked and improve the operation of the dairy farm a new 64 bale rotary cow shed has been built.
