Product prices and confidence are up – property market next? New Zealand’s rural economy is in its best shape for years and as the 201718 season warms up, more people will be seeing the value in farm ownership. Well they should...
Tim Mordaunt Managing Director, Property Brokers Limited
...Everyone has got the message about higher milk prices after two depressed years, but the rural economy is also getting a huge boost from continued strong beef and deer prices plus a long-awaited improvement in lamb prices. That Fonterra forecast in July of $6.75 per kg of milksolids for 2017-18 was great news indeed – and by late September, we were seeing export lamb prices 20% ahead of last year. Clearly now, product prices are up on the back of reduced supply into our major international markets – reduced from New Zealand and from our competitors.
Given this, we can expect prices not to retreat again in a hurry, giving New Zealand farm incomes a well-earned boost in 2017-18. For the rest of us, current pricing developments are a great reminder that New Zealand is, indeed, an efficient producer of high quality food products which are in demand from customers around the world. Customers who are, in some markets, increasingly affluent and discerning about what they eat and wear. Back on the farm, Rabobank New Zealand’s confidence index says it all. This quarterly measure of farmer expectations and intentions shot up in June to its highest level in 14 years with 57% of those surveyed anticipating further improvement in the rural economy over the year ahead. The surge in confidence was actually greatest among sheep and beef farmers. Across all sectors, more than 50% of farmers were expecting their own financial performance to improve this year. 1
RURAL OUTLOOK SPRING/SUMMER 2017
Higher confidence is feeding through to investment intentions, these were up also in the Rabobank survey. 40% of the sample said they will be investing more in their businesses over the coming year, which is quite a jump from 31% in the previous survey (March 2017). Some of that increased investment intention will certainly be directed at the property market – farmers looking to expand through acquiring blocks of land (or whole farms) across the fence or down the road. That has, of course, been happening over many decades as reflected in the increasing average size of New Zealand farms. Perhaps more today than in the recent past, farmers and investors are valuing what they intend to buy through analysis of likely future productive capacities and prospective financial returns. Land and improvements are being valued on farming fundamentals, free of speculation around how capital values might move in the short and medium terms. The analysis is not easy and people already on the land – those grappling with production costs and commodity price cycles – have a head start. Banks are driving rural property buyers in the same direction. The days of speculative lending on farms are over and loan applications usually have to be accompanied by rigorous cash flow forecasts, sometimes stress tested at interest and exchange rates rather higher than the levels prevailing at the moment. Risks and returns are under the microscope for firsttime investors and established farmers alike. None of this has actually dampened the rising tide of confidence within and around New Zealand farming. That is evident in the Rabobank surveys but also in the general rural property price trend – a trend that is definitely upward, albeit at a modest pace. The Real Estate Institute’s all-farms price index rose 9% in the most recent year (ended 31 July).
Median sale values were up across all farm types, allowing for some variation between different regions.

All indicators point to 2017-18 being a year of consolidation and steady growth in New Zealand farming. People are carefully weighing their property market options and running the numbers. At Property Brokers, we expect a more active and satisfying season for vendors and buyers – more so than the past two seasons. We’re certainly ready to serve the market, whatever transpires, our deep experience and knowledge of farming and of rural property.

In fact, the market virtually ground to a halt in some regions through these recent winter months after what was actually a lively autumn sales period. We are all looking forward to some serious sunshine, dry ground and lush spring growth. The latter will be just reward for several months of exceptional wet in Waikato, Manawatu and elsewhere!

MEDIAN PRICE, $000S
The weather has not helped. Much of New Zealand has had its wettest winter and early spring for years – and that makes it hard to show properties at their best. No vendor wants to invite prospective buyers onto muddy paddocks and driveways.

NO. OF SALES
Confidence is up and more people are attracted to farming but it’s not driving any great flurry of market activity, probably because of that shift to pricing on fundamentals and very recent memories of depressed farm incomes. We are in a recovery phase. People can always be confident and cautious at the same time!

What has not been up this past year is market sales volume. Institute statistics show a total 1,739 farms changed hands in the July year which was 1.5% fewer than in the corresponding 12 months to July 2016 (which was itself a down year).

Property Brokers Announces New Rural General Manager We are pleased to announce the appointment of Conrad Wilkshire to the position of General Manager Rural. Conrad commenced with Property Brokers this October and will be based at our Head Office in Palmerston North. Conrad has a solid background in agriculture with his previous role being Chief Operations Officer at FMG where he had been employed since 2009. Prior to that he has worked in prominent agri-focused companies such as PGG Wrightson and BNZ in senior roles throughout New Zealand. He began his working career with the Rural Banking & Finance Corporation in the Manawatu and has also owned and managed his own farm and property development in Hanmer Springs for the last ten years. Conrad is also the Director of the locally based Hopkins Farming Group in the Manawatu and has contributed a lot of time to his local community including the Chamber of Commerce Advisory Board and Talent Central which looks to assist Manawatu’s youth into careers.
Conrad Wilkshire General Manager Rural, Property Brokers Limited
Conrad is looking forward to making the change to real estate and feels his experience in the agribusiness sector will complement his new role well, “I genuinely feel I can make a difference by helping shape the way in which we deliver advice to farmers and growers, on all matters pertaining to rural real estate, particularly at the farm gate” he says. With a Bachelor of Agriculture (Rural Valuation) from Massey University and a Diploma in Business Studies (Commercial Valuation and Property Management) under his belt, Conrad is proud to now be a member of the Property Brokers family saying Property Brokers Country by its very definition is rural at heart so that’s a great fit personally. “I’m joining this proven rural team and backing Tim’s vision of making a greater contribution on behalf of our farmer and grower clients” say’s Conrad.
“I have had the privilege of building a career working alongside farmers and growers. It has never felt like a job, so I guess I’ve been very fortunate in that regard” he says about the rural sector and feels positive about the current rural market and outlook for the coming months - “While clearly the horticultural sector is a standout just now, it is good to see the year-on-year strength returning to both the number and value of pastoral farms currently sold year to date. Ultimately, I sense the value levels for dairy farm sales this season will be dependent on a combination of milk price, banking support and the influence of local government policy not least nutrient management policy in key regions” He says. Conrad and his family live in the Manawatu region and when he isn’t in the office, he is keen on sporting and outdoor pursuits having run several marathons in the ‘distant’ past but favours the bike these days. We have no doubt that he will be a keen starter for next year’s Property Brokers Race to the Brewery in February 2018. We are delighted to have Conrad and his rural expertise on board at Property Brokers and are confident that he will add significant value to our rural division and help us achieve even greater results for our clients.

Waikato/ King Country
Waikato definitely ready for spring growth Waikato has been waiting for the rain to stop and once the sun returns, the property market is expected to take off … just like the grass. The region has had its wettest winter and early spring for years, this having an obvious dampening effect on farm sales. But interest in the market is certainly up on the back of higher prices for milk and lamb, and continued strength in beef and venison. Property Brokers has several substantial property auctions in the pipeline but dates have been pushed back in anticipation of the drier days to come. Overall, the Waikato market has more listings and more activity than at the same point in the past two years. In the latest eight month period (to 31 August), 54 dairy farms have changed hands compared with 27 last year. Livestock and arable property sales have been up also, and prices have generally firmed relative to 2016 in all categories. Waikato continues to offer investment opportunities for all types of farming, with most buyers seemingly well appraised of new regulations around nutrient runoff and of pressure on the region’s irrigation water availability (not so much an issue so far in 2017!) Notwithstanding the weather, spring has opened with several exceptional properties coming to market. Among these, Property Brokers has listed Midway Meadows, a 572 hectare mixed farm off State Highway 1 between Taupo and Tokoroa. Midway includes 315 hectares of dairy pasture and an automated shed milking 1100 cows, along with beef finishing and cropping activities. Part of the farm is leased for a forestry operation. There are also five houses and other high quality farm infrastructure. Further west on the Central Plateau, near Whakamaru, Property Brokers is marketing a very productive 414 hectare dairy unit priced at $12.2 million. This self-contained operation on Sandel Road, has a fiveyear annual production average of 293,000 kg of milk solids.
Across in the King Country, the market is also gathering more interest this spring. Among listings here is a 357 hectare farm in the hills near Taumarunui specialising in manuka honey production from regenerating scrub. Current owners built an on-site honey extraction plant two years ago and last season’s harvest was 9 tonnes from bees in 280 hives. The farm on Pukeatua Road, still has 60 hectare of deer-fenced ground and can carry 1200 stock units on pasture not covered by the manuka and other natives which are now (productively) reclaiming the landscape.

idway meadows, located between Tokoroa, Taupo and Rotorua offers you an amazing opportunity to purchase a successfully growing farm business.
6261 State Highway 1, Upper Atiamuri, South Waikato
This multi-tiered 572 ha farming operation includes leased out land to international forester tenants, maize cropping land, lucerne and dairy pasture, milking some 1,100 cows through a 74 bale rotary milking shed which is fully automated and only 2 years new.
Andrew and Rebecca Parker are the third generation on the property, which has grown from the original farm on Hall Road back in 1974. The Parker’s then purchased the farm next door in 2006 and in 2013, went on and brought the neighboring forestry block which spans both properties.
The land was given the name ‘Midway Meadows’ by our very own land agent Paul O’Sullivan who spent time as a boy making hay on the farm which was then leased by his father and uncle. “We spent two summers making hay, carted and sold it far and wide” says Paul. “The old man called the lease block, which was then an unfenced block of approximately 800ha of red clover, the Atiamuri hay paddock”. Paul didn’t think that would appeal in today’s market so took the liberty of naming it Midway Meadows. Current owners.
The family all agree that over the years, the community spirit in Atiamuri has been great – “They all know who you are in the service industry and they are always looking out for your best interests” says Andrew of their close-knit community. “They always pull together to help each other out and the local contractors are a great support to our business”.
23
RURAL OUTLOOK SPRING/SUMMER 2017
The Parkers’ main focus on the farm has been on increasing milk solids per hectare with cropping and regressing and this is apparent in the many infrastructure improvements they have made over the last four years. “By making full use of the feedpad, feed wastage has stopped in the paddock and allowed our milk production to continue to rise each year” Andrew explains. “Our long-term goal was to reach half a million milk solids which we hit last year” he says. “The diversity of the farm is such a huge asset and this is how we can guarantee milk solids”. This year the farm is on track to produce 530,000 kg of milk solids with 2,000 calves reared on fresh milk and sold at 120 kg live weight. The land is subdivided with a very good standard of internal electric fencing. Paddocks are accessed by formed laneways of pumice quarried on the farm. With silage bunkers, four palm kernel bins with sliding roofs, three hay barns including a calf rearing facility and calf and cattle yards, there is everything needed to simply walk in and get stuck in to reap the rewards.
There’s also an abundance of accommodation with five houses in total. The main home features four bedrooms, an office, two bathrooms plus double garaging and a workshop. The main staff home boasts four bedrooms, there are two cottages and a long term tenant in the three bedroom home.
“Having the family work alongside each other has got us there but now we are all ready for something new. It seems the right time for us to move on to other challenges” they say. This outstanding opportunity is attracting wide spread interest. You should arrange inspection at your earliest opportunity. Midway Meadows is currently on the market as a going concern, by negotiation. View by Appointment Contact Paul O’Sullivan on 027 496 4417 Listing on page 18 WEB ID TPR55298
After accomplishing what they set out to do, the Parkers are packing up the farm house and are ready to try their hand at something new.

Hawke’s Bay
Hawke’s Bay looks beyond recent water issues Hawke’s Bay water management issues are doing little to dampen interest in rural properties this spring. New listings are up and the market continues to reflect good interest in the region’s productive potential over the long term. Properties Property Brokers’ recent listings include Tuki Tuki Awa, a 301 hectare dairy farm of excellent quality in the Makaretu/ Ashley Clinton district. This property, with 135 hectares of milking platform and secure irrigation, produced 177,000 kg of milk solids at its peak in recent years. Dairy units like this rarely come to the market in the Hawke’s Bay. In fact, market statistics show no dairy properties have changed hands in the region so far this year (from January to 31 August) and there were only three sold in the whole of 2016. Finishing farm sales are rather more frequent and the market has seen 12 sold during the January-August period, on par with the corresponding months of 2016. The statistics show that the median per hectare price on finishing farms has, however, tracked down slightly in 2017 – probably in reflection of water availability and fresh water quality issues which have been much in the news this year. The market has been grappling with the implications of a stalled Ruataniwha Water Storage Scheme in the region’s south, new scrutiny on ground water management on the Heretaunga Plains, ongoing investigation of last year’s Havelock North water contamination event, and new Hawke’s Bay Regional Council rules on farm nutrient control and runoff. The Ruataniwha scheme has been shelved at least for the time being, and the council has signalled a moratorium on new water consents from the Heretaunga aquifer. 29
RURAL OUTLOOK SPRING/SUMMER 2017
Notwithstanding these issues, many buyers still see the long-term potential in Hawkes Bay farming, the more so in context of today’s milk price recovery, continued buoyancy in horticulture and positive trends in the red meat sector. There remains also a confidence that more water will become available for irrigation over time, and that fresh water quality issues will subside as new requirements for environmental protection are embedded in agriculture and horticulture. For people able to take a long view, now is a good time to be in the market. Other current listings by Property Brokers include long-established Otoka, a 370 hectare breeding and finishing farm on limestone country south of Waipukurau. Once the home of Otoka Angus Stud, the farm is now used for ewe breeding, and lamb and cattle finishing with good results.

Rangitikei, Whanganui & Manawatu
Manawatu enjoys the upturn in milk and meat prices Like other regions, Manawatu has been deluged recently and this has put the brakes on some property market activity. Farmers are also enjoying the new production season in light of higher milk and meat prices – keeping the farm could be a better option! However there are good listings in the pipeline and once the ground dries out, and vendors are less busy, a number of good dairy properties are expected to reach the market. Industry statistics show just three have changed hands in Manawatu during the first eight months of 2017 (to 31 August). They have included the notable $14.5 million sale of a well-developed dairying operation near Otaki. The same period saw 24 grazing, finishing and arable properties sold across this region – on par with market activity through the previous two years. Among these sales, Property Brokers successfully marketed Twin Rivers, one of the largest land holdings of its type in the Manawatu. With 659 hectares of rolling hills and extensive flats in the Awawa area, Twin Rivers is a very well-developed breeding and finishing farm with significant cropping potential as well. It sold for $7.56 million. Property Brokers is picking up good interest in grazing land across the region, especially in smaller blocks which farmers already in the region can acquire to grow their existing operations without strain on balance sheets. This side of the market will benefit from the higher farm incomes that result from improved product prices during 2017-18.

RURAL OUTLOOK SPRING/SUMMER 2017
Meanwhile, Whanganui district has also been very wet this winter and early spring – and vendors have waited for drier ground before moving into the market. That said, several large livestock farms are expected to come forward before too long. The earlier months of 2017 were reasonably active in Whanganui with 22 grazing, finishing and arable properties changing hands between 1 January and 31 August. They included a 631-hectare grazing block off the Papaiti Rd, adjacent to the Whanganui River, which sold for $8.9 million. As in Manawatu, Property Brokers is receiving good inquiry for bare land blocks that might be suitable for livestock or forestry. In Whanganui farmers are likely to carefully weigh their options firming their intentions to invest for growth through additional land purchases across the fence or down the road.

Tararua
Tararua – land of opportunity Tararua continues being a land of opportunity for first dairy farm buyers. The plains between Eketahuna and Woodville are favoured for their rainfall, central location and generally lower land values compared with bigger dairying regions. Dairy farm sales in Tararua have picked up in 2017, six changing hands between 1 January and 31 August. Among these sales, the median price was $26,900 per hectare. This spring has brought a crop of new listings that include ROC Dairies, a 295 hectare standalone dairy unit west of Pahiatua. Marketed by Property Brokers, this property has an excellent gravity-fed water system and its own hill country support grazing. DOC Dairies is outside the priority catchment in Horizons Regional Council’s One Plan for regulation of farm nutrient leaching. The plan’s restrictions in such catchments are still subject to review and finalisation – and in the Tararua market overall, some participants are holding back until that process has been complete and the implications for farming become more clear.
have been similar to 2016. Among new listings is the large-scale Kaitawa property near Alfredton. This well-developed grazing and semi-finishing farm has 542 hectares of hill country and flats, and the latter include improved pastures that are suited for lamb and cattle finishing.

Canterbury & North Otago
Canterbury – versatile, productive and on the move Canterbury is on the move. Sales activity has been up this winter and, overall, prices have firmed slightly. The region is well into the new season with rural property listings on the increase and an air of confidence not seen since 2014. Market statistics for Canterbury show six dairy properties were sold during the three months ended 31 August, along with 25 livestock finishing farms and six arable units. These numbers are well ahead of the past two winters. Indeed, no dairy farms changed hands in the corresponding three months of 2016. In the latest period, the median sale price in dairy sales is now approaching its level of three years ago (although, in fact, the intervening period did not bring any marked retreat in prices on low sales volumes).
there is renewed interest in dairying and also in arable land for growing maize and grain as feed crops that will support higher milk production. Canterbury’s versatility is definitely coming to the fore! Property Brokers has a strong flow of new listings this spring. Prominent among them is Brander Farms, a higher-performing dairy unit on 294 hectares at Lowcliff south east of Ashburton. This is a premium, A2 milk supplier to Synlait which produced 1530 kg of milk solids per hectare last season. Brander Farms has excellent infrastructure including large-scale centre pivot irrigation. Tenders close 20 October.
Buyers are clearly responding to the milk price recovery, along with continued buoyancy in beef prices and the lamb price improvement seen late in the 2016-17. Canterbury, with its diversity of properties and versatile land use, is always one of the first regions to pick up as confidence improves across New Zealand agriculture.

This year buying interest is largely from people already invested here – those who can best see the longer-term potential and know how to apply farming fundamentals to the valuation of land and developments in the region. Banks are certainly encouraging this by requiring rigorous cash flow analysis as part of loan applications. As farm incomes edge back up in 2017-18, many on the land have prioritised debt reduction – and some also see more opportunity to sell up amid the revival in confidence. The market statistics show Canterbury finishing farm sales during the latest three months were double 2016 with the median price lifting to $36,000 per hectare. That reflects some shift from dairy to beef in line with commodity price trends. With milk prices recovering, 43

Brander Farm Brander Farm, situated approximately 30 kilometers south of Ashburton on the Mid Canterbury Plains is a very special place. Location to the coast, soil type, irrigation development, a sophisticated dairy shed and three good quality homes makes Brander a high standard farm. Current owner Stuart Brander purchased the land in 2008 as part of an equity partnership and brought the farm outright in 2013 moving from the Manawatu region to Canterbury seeking a new challenge. “It was a good simple farm with a nice shape, good soils and a great location” says Brander when recalling his initial impressions of the farm. The farm, originally a beef farm, was quickly converted to dairy and four years ago became an A2 farm with Synlait which was a new venture for Brander that has proven successful and adds significant value to an already impressive property. This 294-hectare property has a proven history of milking up to 1050 cows with production from 450,000 kg/ms to 512,000 kg’s of milk solids per hectare. A special feature of this farm is its layout with one central race that leads to a centrally located 54 bale dairy shed. The state of the art rotary Waikato Dairy shed features an AFF management system that allows feed to production and yield, mastitis checks, auto drafting and auto weighing.
45
RURAL OUTLOOK SPRING/SUMMER 2017
Five feed heads come into the dairy which allows several extra feed options. The shed also has a separate office, 5 silos, disc mill for grain and 800 cow yard. This incredible system allows for maximum production at minimum cost. A great farming location being away from the foothills and close to the coast gives the property the ability to grow grass almost all year round. “The best asset of Brander Farm is the close proximity to Christchurch making it very central and easily accessible – and of course the great weather” explains Stuart. The farm also boasts an excellent centre pivot irrigation system with central lane access. Three very good homes and an excellent range of farm buildings including calf/hay and implement sheds plus two sets of cattle yards are all key qualities. To top this off, the farm is Synlait A2 supply with cows and young stock available, ensuring the property receives a premium payment of 0.20 cents/ kg/ms over the total seasons production.
Always up for a new challenge, Stuart is selling Brander Farm to look for the next farming opportunity in the Canterbury region and to expand his investments. “Canterbury is the best place to farm so we will remain local and see what opportunities arise that we can add value to over the coming years� he says. This is a great opportunity to purchase a quality farm in a prime location.
