1043 Witera Road, Colley SA 5671

Elders are pleased to present "Witera" to the market on behalf of Bay Family Trust, who purchased this property in April 1998. Since that time the property has been farmed using a mixed farming practice.

This property is in the heart of the Mount Hall and Mount Cooper farming district which is highly regarded for its reliability and high yields.

The cropping is mainly wheat and barley, with a reliable average yield of 2.5 tonne per hectare, with a lay pasture phase which is maintained by a strong agronomic program.

In addition to the cropping the vendors run approximately 1,200 merino ewes plus lambs with a Collandra North bloodline. The clover pastures are well established over the grazing areas of the property.

The property is located on the eastern side of the Flinders Highway in the Calca / Witera region, just 40kms south of Streaky Bay on the Western Eyre Peninsula.

Well set up for mixed farmers this property provides an opportunity for existing farmers within the region to expand their holding in a reliable grain growing region.
