Points forts de l'investissement

Advanced Technologically Efficient Operation:

The property integrates advanced automation infrastructure, comprising 10 Lely robotic milkers, automated feed dispensers and automated drafting yards, with a strategically engineered farm layout that provides comprehensive laneway access to all 92 paddocks.
This integrated system enables best-practice operational performance through specialized milk production and livestock health monitoring capabilities, while optimizing livestock movement, grazing management, and cropping operations.

Premium Southwest Victoria Location:

Located in Victoria’s renowned Simpson dairy region, with an average rainfall of 989mm, the Property resides in one of the most reliable grass growing regions in Australia.
The Property is additionally surrounded by a wide range of contractors from silage to dairy plant maintenance, supporting full supply chain requirements.

Reduced Labour Requirements:

Automation of the dairy reduces labour requirements and fatigue, whilst optimizing workforce scheduling, addressing one of the industry’s most significant operational challenges.
This advancement further reduces workplace health and safety risks associated with impacted sleep schedules commonly encountered in conventional non-automated milking operations.

Scale & Value Creation Potential:

With already established production and significant capital investment in comparison to other dairies in the region and industry, this enables capital allocation to be directed toward maximising economies of scale and strategic value enhancement initiatives.

Self-Contained:

Sunday Ridge has the ability to keep replacement stock on farm, negating the need for costly agistment. In a normal year enough maize and grass silage is grown on farm for seasonal requirements.
