“Buy it now because they ain’t making anymore” really rings home with this farm because the river bank river silt soils are rare and will produce maximum yields with minimum effort whatever you choose to grow. Currently producing approx 3,300 tonnes of sugar cane per year on 70 acres of cultivation area, this farm will easily convert to, horticulture, legumes, hay, rice etc with very little effort.
The improvements include a recently renovated high set 5 bedroom home with new kitchen, walk in pantry, upstairs and downstairs bathrooms, fully air-conditioned with ceiling fans, downstairs entertaining area, downstairs laundry and a separate activity or storeroom area as well. The surrounding lawn area is fitted with a pop up sprinkler system and irrigated from a diesel powered spear pump which also supplies domestic water and can also be used for crop irrigation. There are multiple bay sheds with flood proof raised sections and an inventory of tractors and machinery that would accommodate a farm 3 times its size. (Machinery list available on request)
Flood irrigated with one open water pump from a Lower Burdekin Water entitlement which is delivered through approx 2 km of 315mm poly pipe and outlets which has recently replaced the leaking outdated concrete underground pipes. Total area is approx 75 acres separated from the Burdekin River by a fenced forest area which is currently grazed.
One of the farm’s side benefits is its proximity to some of the best fishing locations in Queensland including Hell Hole, Kierle,s and Fieldings landings on the mouth of the Burdekin River, where mud crab and Barramundi etc are so plentiful.
The vendors also have a smaller cane block nearby for sale which can be sold as a package if required which together grows about 5,500 tonnes per year. Get more information on both these properties by contacting us today.
