8.56Ha Farm For Sale in Lusthof

This absolutely stunning farming opportunity is situated in the Lusthof AH community, north of Pretoria, not far from the R101 towards Warmbaths, with easy access to the front gate.
The property offers 8.56 hectare of which 6 hectares are set aside as pastures for goats/sheep and/or arable land for maize or other crops production.
An Environmental Authorization Certificate in terms of National Environmental Management Act (Act No 107 of 1998), (NEMA) and other related Acts, specifically for piggery facilities covering an area of approximately 2.5 hectares was approved and granted in February 2020.
Start-up operations were however, halted in March 2020, by the Covid 19 breakout and the planned establishment and development program of the operation was placed on ice and has not been activated since then.
This property is perfectly suited to the Tshwane Agrarian transformation plans to balance the relations between land, livestock, cropping and community, and future farmers are invited to obtain information on these plans from the Metro’s agri-related websites.
The piggery’s 5—phaze development plan called for the construction of facilities with a capacity of up to 500 sows and when fully operational a capacity to accommodate up to 1000 pigs. All these facilities were completed and needless to say, now lie in wait of new owners of the property to get going and turn this piggery into another South African success story!
Property offers the following:

All existing infrastructure Property Condition Reports will be made available to potential buyers who have financial institution pre-approval or approval-in-principle certification for the acquisition of agricultural land/farming operations.
The Farm Layout and Technical Design focused on areas for quarantine, breeding, farrowing, nursery and growing/finishing, as applicable, including controlled access to the facilities, loading areas, feed storage, water systems, ventilation, backup water, manure handling, dead-stock disposal, as well as animal welfare and easy cleaning.
Biosecurity and Health Planning focused on the establishment of perimeter controls, visitor and vehicle procedures, quarantine and isolation facilities, pest control, vaccination and veterinary protocols, and source stock from reputable, health-monitored suppliers.
Utilities, Buildings and Watse Systems focus included test housing, feed and water systems, ventilation, drainage and backup systems, and related disciplines.
The information above suggests that for a full-cycle farming operation to kick off, it now requires a breeding herd to build towards the targeted 1000 sow capacity with future development plans beyond a 1000—head finishing unit.
