An opportunity exists for a dedicated family to participate in the growing & harvest of organic’ tea tree plant material for processing at an adjoining facility.
The current principals will enter into a guaranteed supply agreement & will supply sufficient harvesting plant to commence operations immediately.
The property has good access & is flood free. There is a huge scope for additional plantation. Assistance will be given to prepare seed-beds in accordance with ‘organic’ certification that does not offend sustainable agriculture & the image the company has established. Seedlings would be provided to meet annual planting requirements.
Payment will be by cubic measurement of harvested material & paid on a weekly basis. Supply must be on a weekly basis.
PLANT- One Kubota ’15hp 4WD tractor with attached harvesting equipment, two mobile bins, one near new Red Roo chipper/mulcher, slasher.
NOTE- The property is well grassed and would carry up to 100 steers with improved fencing without interfering with the tea tree project. High quality sand is also a feature on this property. A good home site & power only 300m away from front road access is also a feature. Access to spring a dam close to the proposed building site would provide water for external use.
APPROXIMATE INCOME- Based on the supply of 2x3cm material @$135 per bin over 300working days would provide a income of $81,000 per year. Increased annual planting with eventual ‘over the row’ harvesting direct into bins would increase annual income dramatically.
ASKING PRICE- $640,000. Suggested vendor finance based on the payment of $400,000 and the balance payable over seven years @4.5% interest. Interest only 1st year, reducing thereafter by $40,000 per year.
