Holmes Family Farm

Matamata, New Zealand

The Holmes Farm at Matamata lays claim to having the first Waikato Centrus rotary platform installed in 2009.

Made from composite Kevlar a material that replaces traditional concrete, the rotary deck is both lighter and stronger. The steel sub-structure proven in Elite and Orbit platform is maintained, as are the high quality steel rollers and powerful yet economical electric drive units. A 101mm Waikato Milking System, Smartpulse, SmartECR, SmartSpray and Frontier Dairy Herd Management has been installed onto this platform.
