For the three months ended August 2016 the median sales price per hectare for dairy farms was $40,469 (14 properties), compared to $35,614 for the three months ended July 2016 (32 properties), and $26,906 (21 properties) for the three months ended August 2015.

On a price per kilo of milk solids basis, the median sales price was $45.51 per kg of milk solids for the three months ended August 2016, compared to $33.62 per kg of milk solids for the three months ended July 2016 (+6.6%), and $37.50 per kg of milk solids for the three months ended August 2015 (+13.6%).
The REINZ Dairy Farm Price Index rose 6.6% in the three months to August 2016 compared to the three months to July. Compared to August 2015, the REINZ Dairy Farm Price Index rose 6.0%.

Care needs to be taken during the winter months as the low level of sales (14 for the three months to August) can distort the Index figures.
