Jenny Buckley and Dave van den Beuken

"We are 50/50 Sharemilking in Tauwhare, Cambridge milking 550 cows on 170ha.
Our farm owners Trish and Paul Jones employed the services of AgFirst Engineering Geoff Neilson from the Te Puke branch to construct a weeping wall system and a 50m x 50m x 3m lined effluent pond, extending our existing effluent area from 20 ha to 50ha.

We found Geoff to be a great communicator, keeping us in the loop with the different stages of the build. He managed the various contractors exceptionally well so that there was minimal impact on our daily routine.

The system has been running now for 3 years and it has exceeded our expectations. We are very pleased with how the system performs."
