Islington Farm

Te Pirita

Positioned in the renowned dairying district of Te Pirita, Central Canterbury, this 407ha effective dairy platform was purchased by the Camden Group in 2026, having been a dairy platform for ten years.

Milking 1,100 cows with a target of 500,000kg milk solids , the farm operates a self-contained system. Wintering of the milking herd is carried out on-farm.

Infrastructure is centred around a high-spec 54-bail rotary dairy shed featuring in-shed meal feeding, ACRs, Protrack automatic drafting, and a modern effluent system, supported by a calf rearing facility adjacent to the shed.

Reliable irrigation is provided via the Central Plains Water Scheme, with full allocation delivered across the property through centre pivots and fixed grid to support consistent pasture growth. Housing includes a spacious four-bedroom brick homestead alongside four modern staff residences.
