Conasg Contracting & Engineering Ltd

In 1972 David and Kathryn Sinclair started in the world of agriculture contractors offering a full silage service, in the main Southland district of Opio, working out the farmily farm. After a few years, they decided it was time to expand and accomodate their growing client base. In 1989 Conasg Contracting and Engineering Ltd was established when the family moved to the farming district of Dipton, where the company has been for the last 29 years. The 89 acres they purchased was an established deer farm, which continued to be the other source of income when the silage was finished for the season. On the property was a deer/shearing shed and workshop for repairs and maintenace of the farm and contracting machinery. In 200 the deer were all but sold and contracting and engineering became the main focus. In the following years silage was the main source of income. The first two choppers were FC80 side mounted, followed by FCT850, FCT900 and two 1100's - both had grass front cuts.
