A winner of the prestigious Hanslow Cup for pasture production and land use, Avoca Forrest has received high and consistent inputs of fertiliser, pasture sowings, cereal/oil seed cropping, some summer cropping and an above all continual perennial grass and legume establishment. Taking advantage of year round rainfall by holding rain run off on the hills with deep rooted perennials and similarly on the more alluvial country with lucerne has reaped livestock and pastoral rewards.
These four adjoining lots are handily connected by quiet all weather gravel roads and similarly the strategic placement of 30 dams and contour ploughing/terracing means run off is judiciously collected from one block to the next. Some of the dams are 8 megs and registered for irrigation.
The majority of the farm receives 70kg of single super plus trace elements annually and the rewards are obvious. The vendors have religiously addressed any weed issues with spot spraying throughout the year plus a general pre crop spraying program.
Rainfall is 400 - 450mm annually and this block runs approx 1 - 1.5 DSE, season dependant alongside the cropping program.
There is a north facing 1950's weather/board dwelling plus some old shedding set well back from the road, inside it features 3 bedrooms, 10ceilings, a graciously wide hallway with 2m high stained dado walls plus semi mantle, front and rear verandahs plus a garage. With a little TLC it would make a comfortable home with a beautiful out look over the undulating surrounding farmland.
There are approx 17 paddocks with some blocks featuring excellent stands of remnant box eucalypts over the grass lands. The elevated portions have excellent long views to the Pyrenees Ranges and Mt Moliagul/Mt Bealiba. Over all fencing is in excellent order.
