The farming activities on the farm are primarily cash crops including Cotton, Potatoes rotating with various other cash crops. There is 256Ha of land that is designed for the potential of citrus farming.

The main farming practice is cotton and tomato farming in summer & potatoes, wheat, pumpkin / butternut on a rotation basis and according to market requirements and demand.
 
Commercial Farm
This is an established farm that is fully equipped and irrigated with sufficient water to sustain farming. The farm has been owned and operated for commercial gain for 3 generations.
 
Due to this infrastructure, the farm can produce 4 harvests per 2 year cycle / 2 crops per annum. This provides diversification of income and increased resilience in market fluctuations.
 
The infrastructure on the farm is extensive with regards to irrigation, pivots, water reticulation, buildings and 2 processing plants. There are water rights for 1018Ha and it is linked to the Eskom grid for its main power supply needs.
 
The topography of the farm slopes gradually in a northerly direction towards the river. The soil has a dark brown / red color type – Hutton type, with mainly a sandy / loam texture type. The climate in this area is moderate and ideal for crop farming.
 
Dragon-Line Mobile Drip and normal Pivots and dripline Irrigation covers the whole farm. Probes are also used to monitor irrigation, and props are installed to manage the water reticulation optimally. This highly efficient irrigation system reduces the amount of water required on pivots as well as the electricity output. Dual valves on pivots allows for sprayers or mobile drip to be used. The water saving and the electricity saving is approximately 40% - 60%.
 
To manage the rate and velocity of runoff, the farm has established run off canals as well as barriers on the curvatures of the pivots to minimize the concentrations of runoff volume and to slow down the runoff velocity, allowing the water more time to soak into the soil, limiting its capacity to transport soil particles and diminishing its ability to cause scour erosion. Additionally, 30 000 meters of subsurface drainage has been installed.
 
There is a complete commercial cotton processing plant, Cotton Gin. One of only 6 in South Africa. The sector is within an industry that has potential to grow rapidly, as it is a commodity that was in short supply the world over, with an international shortage recorded in the 2024/2025 season.
 
The farm has 2.4m Game Fencing around the entire farm with 24 Strands. The fencing around the homestead is diamond mesh.
 
The subdivision of the farm into 3 portions has been approved.
 
Location
The farming activity in this farming node along the Weipe tract of land, where this farm is located, is orchard farming, with cash crops and game farming. It is well known for its superb soil quality, water availability and climate.
The location allows niche market access due to the timing and quality produced from the area.
 
Cash crop farming units with citrus farming are the bulk of the farming practices along the Limpopo River, due to the soil condition, good water quality and irrigation infrastructure in place.
 
The farm is located in the Limpopo province near the town of Musina, which is predominantly a summer rainfall area. The average rainfall for the area is 250 mm - 350 mm per year. The average daily summer temperature is between 25°C and 40°C and the average daily winter temperature is between 8°C and 25°C. This is a frost and hail storm free zone, but they may occasionally occur.
 
Farm Layout
The farm has an irregular shape, predominantly flat with gentle sloping in various directions, and towards the Limpopo River.
 
Irrigation Site Plan
The irrigated farmland used for crop generation consists of various blocks that are divided into pivots and orchards. Dragon-Line mobile drip on Pivots and normal Dripline Irrigation covers the whole farm. Probes are also used to monitor irrigation, and props are installed to manage the water reticulation optimally.
 
Water Rights
The main water supply is from the Limpopo River, and boreholes from this aquifier, which is pumped to balancing dams then reticulated to the farmlands. 1018Ha water sources are registered with the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry. There are 48 boreholes on the banks of the river and 9 inside the river bed. The pumps are submersible and centrifugal pumps.
 
Irrigation Method
Dragon-Line Mobile drip irrigation on Dual System Pivots is the preferred method of irrigation on this farm to the efficiency and the reduction in water consumption by approximately 40% - 60% and the saving on electricity by approximately 40% - 60%.
 
Subdivision
The Remaining Extent of Farm Alyth is approximately ± 1367.3484Ha. The application to sub-divide the Farm into 3 portions is approved by the council and the Department of Agriculture.

Property Information

This filling station site offers an excellent investment opportunity with extensive development growth potential.

The property is strategically located on the N12 national through Christiana in North West located between Bloemhof and Warrenton, on the way to Kimberley (Northern Cape). This site has entry and exit directly onto the N12 which services the traffic in both directions (east to west and west to east).

The N12 is a major road that connects George in the Western Cape to eMalahleni (Witbank) in Mpumalanga and is the main access road through the town and has high traffic volumes.

The size of the property allows for substantial growth and redevelopment to maximize the opportunity. The upside is to explore additional potential Retail vendores and Service opportunities on the site.

The existing filling station structure could be revamped according to the new proposed building plans. Building plans have been approved by council to redevelop the site on the current foundations. The existing canopy can be used but new tanks need to be installed.

Due to the high traffic volume of the N12, the estimated literage per month is approximately ± 300 000 liters.

This fuel site can expand exponentially and has the potential to become a benchmark site.
