Plenty of options for farm

- ALICIA NALLY alicia.nally@news.com.au

SIX property titles across more than 270 freehold hectares have come on the market in an attractive opportunit­y for graziers.

Suitable for a mix of primary production, 64000 Bruce Highway, Comoon Loop near Mourilyan is for sale by expression­s of interest.

Cattle grazing, cropping and horticultu­ral industries will thrive on the property, just south of Innisfail, with irrigation infrastruc­ture in place.

Colliers Internatio­nal Cairns agent Charlie Torrisi said the freehold property could support sugarcane, bananas, cucurbits, papaya, legume crops and cattle in “an area highly regarded for its reliable rainfall, allowing for greater carrying capacity and likely high birthing rates within the cattle industry”.

“With access to waterways, forest and tidal mangrove areas, the property also provides aquacultur­e opportunit­ies and potentiall­y more usable lands,” he said.

“Soils comprise a combinatio­n of sought-after dark alluvial loams and well-drained volcanic basalt plains, with the cropping land typically supported by 3000mm rainfall zones.

“This offering is very attractive due to the large area of the property and the fact that the property has been held by a pioneering family for over 100 years. The property has produced in different years 12,000 tonne of cane, 68,000 cartons of bananas and grazed 400 head of cattle.”

Submit interest by 4pm on November 29. For more informatio­n phone Mr Torrisi on 0408 006 123 or Alf Pagano at A & A Realty on 4061 1466.
