Dairy conversions
Done Right
We believe it's important to get your conversion process right from the start.
Why convert to dairy?
The dairy industry in New Zealand is currently thriving thanks to positive market drivers, including rising milk prices, the repayment of agri-debt, the outlook for dairying compared to other farming sectors, and recent changes in the national regulatory environment.
Whether it’s for a new or existing dairy farm, it’s essential to hold a consent for animal effluent discharges and water permits for taking and using water in the dairy shed. At Tarbotton Land & Civil, we help you succeed in the conversion or upgrade to your existing facilities, ensuring they meet industry sustainability standards.
Why us?
At Tarbotton, we’re a trusted family business with a reputation for getting the job done right the first time. For over 35 years, we’ve been committed to putting in the hard yards for our clients and have had numerous occasions to help some of them make the switch to dairying.
How can we help?
Our dairy conversion services cover all your needs, big or small, for a sustainable and efficient transition. We provide a complete solution from planning water storage to designing an efficient layout with stock laneways or underpasses.
Effluent systems and ponds
We provide end-to-end effluent management solutions. From planning and design to construction, upgrades, and maintenance. Our services cover effluent ponds, wedges, traps, sumps, and muck spreading, ensuring efficient wastewater handling and full compliance with industry standards for cost-effective, sustainable farm operations.
Irrigation
Using 3D machine control technology, we can design and build water storage ponds and dams for your stock with a high level of accuracy and precision. Our capabilities also include installing and removing mainline and tending to urgent mainline repairs.
Stock underpass and laneways
Need to create laneways and underpass on your farm for your stock? We help you develop the best solutions for herd flow and farm efficiency. By placing underpass strategically, you avoid disturbances and downtimes, and well thought laneways can help you save time when walking your stock from the paddok to the milking shed.
Culverts, bridges and underpasses
We also supply and install culverts, bridges and underpasses of all sizes for your own movements with machinery around the farm. Our team will take care of the full process, including liaising with affected parties, managing resource consents and providing traffic management where required.
