Brandhoek: well developed farm off the grid

The R6.75 million Joubertina farm of 212 Hectare is completely independent from Eskom power and could be described as a mixed farming operation.

The pump station next to the canal/river consists of a 7.5 kva VBS solar system, which converts to three phase power supply for irrigation purposes.

At the main homestead on an elevated location, 5kva single phase solar power is supplied. This is a two bedroom, two bathroom barn type new built, with a large open plan living area and impressive views of the cultivated area below and views on the Kouga and Baviaans mountains. The original homestead is located near the main pump station and although habitable, would require renovations

On the mountain slopes, more than 450 000 litres of reservoir capacity supply the main homestead and the upper pecan plantation, all via gravitation and micro irrigation. The reservoirs are...

The R6.75 million Joubertina farm of 212 Hectare is completely independent from Eskom power and could be described as a mixed farming operation.

The pump station next to the canal/river consists of a 7.5 kva VBS solar system, which converts to three phase power supply for irrigation purposes.

On the mountain slopes, more than 450 000 litres of reservoir capacity supply the main homestead and the upper pecan plantation, all via gravitation and micro irrigation. The reservoirs are filled from the pump station on the canal edge.

Just over 1000 pecan trees have been planted since four years ago and many trees have reached the early stages of production. It is expected that it will reach the viable stage of production within the next two to three years. It goes without saying that the value of the farm will increase as production reach maturity. The pecan crop could surpass any return on investment in the entire area within the time span referred to.

Up to 200 sheep could be kept on the farm, utilising the available grazing between the trees and the natural grazing on the rest of the farm. This number could be increased by adopting a stock yard approach to livestock production.

A ware in the perennial

Skrik River, a tributary of the Kouga River, supplies water for irrigation and domestic use.

The property and most of the movable assets are registered in a Close Corporation (CC), which is a major benefit to the investor. No transfer cost except for the minimal fee to effect the change in membership of the CC, would apply. The VAT registration vests in the CC.

The main attributes of the farm could be summarised as follows:

• Own energy generation ensures independence from Eskom

• Economic viability and an above average return on investment in the medium and long term of the farm is virtually guaranteed

• The vested water rights for irrigation purposes

• The benefit of buying the property through the change of membership of a CC vs the costly transfer process of acquiring the property through conventional methods

• Safe area
