KAKAHU
Located south of Geraldine, the property is 1200 hectares ranging from river flats to steeper hills. 250 hectares are irrigated. Kakahu has an Angus and Charolais stud.
The Angus stud was started in 1954 by KH Hargreaves, Gerald’s father, and now we run 550 cows with around 100 of these at Clayton Station. Huge emphasis is placed on breeding animals with high production and great constitution. We breed cattle suitable for the high end meat market, so when breeders are paid for quality they will be at the leading edge.
The Charolais Stud was started in 2006 by Gerald and Tom, and now has 80 cows, selecting especially for good temperament and feet as well as growth and carcass attributes.
We run 3000 composite ewes and fatten all lambs.
We have two cattle sales a year, selling 100 Angus bulls and 20 Charolais bulls in June, and 60 Angus yearlings in October. We sell approximately 200 Kakahu bred commercial heifers for sale throughout the Spring. These heifers are mated to yearling bulls in the top 5% for Calving Ease.

Tom talking on RNZ at 9am today
Employers ask - when can we get our migrant workers back?
Allowing Avatar film crew into the country while thousands of other New Zealand visa holders remain locked out has incensed those working to get them home. New Zealand's borders remain closed, leaving those on temporary visas who were overseas on March 19 with no way of returning, unless they qualify for an exemption. Lynn Freeman talks to June Ranson, chair of the New Zealand Association of Migration and Investment who says the government is hiding this crisis from the public, Dr Tim Mackle from Dairy NZ, representing a sector with many highly skilled workers who are desperately needed back on the farm, and Tom Hargreaves from Kakahu Angus - a farmer who wants his second-in charge on his dairy farm back from Uruguay.
