Livestock Farm - Grahamstown (CRRG-BRF360)

The farm is situated in the middle of the game belt (near Amakhala), south of the N2 between Nanaga and Grahamstown and it is exactly 90km from central PE (Greenacres) right to the farm house itself

no less than 4.9 km of Bushman’s river frontage. .
The density of premier big 5 game reserves that dominate this region is testament to the habitat
Veld types
The riverine region, drainage lines and slopes are well wooded with pristine Cape valley bushveld forming a canopy of impressive proportions. The floodplain areas open up completely into some spectacular savannah grassland. Most of this region is previously disturbed soils that have either been planted, or reverted to various indigenous pasture. All the grazing seen at the elevated plateaus was in deep red sandy soils while the floodplains are composed of deep fertile alluvial soils. Overall the veld is in excellent condition and would well justify it’s officially rated 1LSU – 6ha stocking ratio.
Most of the valley floor is permanent pastures. Dragline infrastructure is in place to irrigate one pasture of at least 20ha in size.
Rainfall / water
The farm falls in a largely summer rainfall area with an annual average of 550mm. Currently water is drawn from the river itself as there is a series of weirs which combined store enough water to last at least 2.5 years.
Improvements
The main house is quite large and while structurally sound, the interior and exterior is scruffy, and would require some cosmetic renovation. Perimeter and internal fencing is good
Game
Naturally occurring game includes: kudu; bushbuck; bushpig; grey duiker and possibly even blue duiker along the riverbank.
