Topography: The topography of the farm I’m doing is on the flats of Kaikoura
Making it a very accessible farm.
Climate: Average annual rainfall (mm): 844
         Average annual sunshine hours: 2,090
         Average summer temperature (°C): 17
         Average winter temperature (°C): 8

Soils are predominantly Fitzroy Hill soils mixed with Barrier steepland
soils, clay loam and rocky clay loam, along with smaller isolated areas of
Fitzroy clay loam and bouldery clay loam on the central ridge, farm gully and
on the tops of the spurs on the northern coastline (NZMS290 series).

The stock carrying capacity of my farm in Kaikoura is quite high due to the
topography of the land being so flat and with some steep land as well. My carrying
capacity of stock on this farm is two per acre so equals a maximium of 3000 stock
units on the farm.
The type of stock I'm using on my farm are Red deer and wapiti. The Red deer will
primarily be farmed for their meat where as the Wapiti will be farmed for both
Velvet and venison. The Red deer weights for sending away to the works are:
Stage- Adult weight over 200kgs
Hind- Adult weight 90-120kgs.
The wapiti will be used for velvet because they have a thicker velvet than the Red
deer.
Fertilisers that will be used on this farm are:
        Phosphates and nitrogen.




The farms objective is breeding and finishing stock for
production.
