Comments: ‘Candowie’ is very well set up for its existing operation as an irrigated row crop farm. The Kumbia district is renowned for producing peanuts corn, navy beans and sorghum. However the property is ideally suited to conversion to intensive fodder production with a focus on either silage or highly improved pastures. With Candowie’s unique water supply, quality soils, infrastructure, location on a tourist highway close to Kingaroy, Bunya Mountains and wineries, “Candowie’s” diversity of ventures is virtually limited only by your imagination.
