    Cloverlea Farms Ltd


    We are a family owned and operated dairy farming company made up of John and Anne Poole, Shaun Poole and Chris Poole.  

    Dairy Farming is in our blood.  We are a strong team with over 30 years of hands on dairy farming experience.  We are rural people with strong family values and a passion for the dairy industry.  We have set long term goals personally and professionally in this industry.  We've laid a good, strong foundation and are ready for new opportunities.    

    Farming is who we are.  We believe in the dairy industry, both for New Zealand and for what it has to offer our family.  Our skill set combines two generations of dairying where innovation and hard work has proved successful.  

    We know the support and guidance our team structure provides will ensure any farming venture we take on will prove successful for all parties involved. Being surrounded by family is the constant amongst the volatility of this industry.

    Within our farming team we make extensive use of experts in their field to get the best knowledge, ideas and training to aid us in our own farm practices.  We are open to new ideas and love our farming beliefs to be challenged.  We enjoy engaging with experts and working with others.  

    Our System

    We own and manage a 210 ha dairy farm in Pirongia and a 120 ha run off block on Mount Pirongia.  
    The milking platform is made up of 4 joining blocks of land.  
    We pride ourselves on our commitment to constantly make improvements to our land and develop our farming enterprise, including leased land, all year round.  

    cows

    We milked 720 cows this season.  We have a winter milk contract and have done since 2008.  Currently our split calving herd is made up of 300 autumn calving cows and 500 spring calving cows.  

    feed

    We run a high input feeding system making extensive use of a feed pad situated next to the 44 aside herringbone dairy.  We grow our own maize in addition to other crops including chicory, fodderbeet and turnips.  

    Young stock

    We manage all of our young stock and winter grazing, taking our reliance off external graziers, giving us full control.
