The farmland has considerable agricultural appeal on which the owners round off sheep in the 8 smaller camps with feedlot/ livestock handling facilities. The remainder of the farm (about 16 ha) is divided into bigger camps, getting planted with oats in winter to make hay for feeding livestock. The property is fully fenced and access is remotely controlled.
The farm has ample water in the form of an equipped borehole, delivering 40 000 liters/hour of good quality water. In addition, the property has been allocated water rights (175 000 cubic meters per annum) from run-off water in a furrow from the mountains. The furrow is shared by the neighbouring farm. At present, this water is not being used because the borehole provides sufficient water for the owner's requirements. There are also a number of natural ponds on the farm.
Although capable of supporting beef or sheep enterprises, the property equally offers exciting potential for wide-range diversification projects.
