Retrofit ageing Dairy Sheds

We asked Gina Duncan, a rural valuer who specialises in dairy farms throughout the Waikato, and ASB Rural General Manager Aidan Gent about the biggest misconception on farm infrastructure value. Words Gina Duncan (Darragh Valuations) and Aidan Gent (ASB).

A lot of farm dairies built during the boom era will be fast approaching their use-by date. As part of a two-part series on ageing dairy infrastructure on farm, we look at the opportunity to retrofit ageing dairy infrastructure instead of rebuilding. Words Sarah Perriam-Lampp.
