3 Hansen Road, Walkamin QLD 4872

Unique opportunity to acquire a fully operational Lady Finger Banana, Avocado and Custard Apple operation on two separate blocks. Established within close proximity to each other and with full, modern infrastructure and contemporary, award winning homestead. Located at Walkamin on the highly productive Atherton Tablelands and close to major centres.
Mainly red volcanic soils, on level, to slightly undulating country, with small areas of lighter soils in three areas.
Approximately 29 200 Lady Finger Bananas, 5805 young Avocados (Hass & Shepard) and 3700 Custard Apple Trees are spread across the two blocks. The farm also produces and bales its own mulch hay with 1068 x 4' round bales this year.
Peak production of Lady Fingers currently yields approx. 50 - 55 000 cartons / annum with an average of 1.5 cartons / bunch.
The Custard Apples were introduced to add diversification and continuity of cash flow and are producing very well. They are 5, 6 and 7 years old now and sold in 6kg trays and 10 kg Bulk packs and mainly marketed in Sydney and Melbourne and exported to Singapore.
Very well-developed irrigation farm supported by a 1020 mm average annual rainfall (approx.) Irrigation licences of 369 megs are on the Mareeba-Dimbulah Water Supply Scheme. There are sand filters and under tree sprinklers across the two farms.
As this farm has been developed and established over the past 12-13 years all buildings and infrastructure apart from the second and original house, some sheds and cattle yards are modern and in excellent condition.
With such an emphasis on World food production and also on Australian Tropical Agriculture, this WIWO sale represents a timely opportunity for investors or current growers to expand, diversify and/or enter into the lucrative Lady Finger Banana industry underpinned by developing Avocado planting plus Custard Apples. Full production and financial figures will be made available to qualified enquirers.
