One dairy farm has just sold, another big rotary is on the market

A successful executor's sale has been held for OBerin's highly regarded dairy farm at Gunbower near the Murray River in northern Victoria.

While the Kurrajong Park farm was across 134 hectares (330 acres) located about 45km north-west of Echuca, another dairy is on the market on 417ha (1030 acres) also on the Murray River but at Murrabit, north of Kerang.

No price was disclosed for the Gunbower sale but the big Murrabit dairy has a listed selling price of $3.8 million.

D.K. OBerin's dairy came with a 24-unit swing over milking plant while the Murrabit dairy has a 50-stand rotary.

Agents for the Murrabit sale say the farm is milking up to 500 cows across fully laser levelled irrigated paddocks.

It has a 250 megalitre turkey nest irrigation holding dam and the dairy has a 20,000 litre vat, auto draft and feed system.

Agents say the property has good shedding plus a five-bedroom brick home as well as a four-bedroom bungalow.

"It has excellent facilities for a large scale dairy," agents said.
