Paarl farm with fully gravity-fed water

This 42-hectare farm is located in a sought-after agricultural area, enjoying panoramic views over the beautiful Paarl valleys and the majestic Drakenstein mountains to the east. The fertile soils are perfectly suited to a wide range of crops, including fruit, lucerne, pastures, cash crops, and vineyards.

Gravity-fed water supply

Irrigation water is supplied via gravity from the elevated Ashanti Dam, owned by local farmers and managed by the Palmiet River Irrigation Board. Water pressure on the farm ranges from 3–4 bar, allowing 100% of the lands to be irrigated via drip lines and sprinklers without the use of pumps. No electricity is needed for irrigation. The farm’s annual allocation of 100,000 m³ is fully registered with the Palmiet River Irrigation Board.

Vineyards and Arable Land

The farm is partially planted with vineyards, of which 15 hectares are planted with cultivars such as Sauvignon Blanc (3.7 ha), Pinotage (2.2 ha) and Petit Verdot (9.1 ha). Quality grapes are currently supplied to the nearby Nederburg Cellar.
Additionally there are 19 hectares of arable land of which 5 hectares are under sprinkler irrigation with lucerne and teff.
