Overview

A Blight for one is a Bounty for Another

*** All viewings are strictly by appointment only , Please do not turn up un announced for health and safety reasons*** This established kiwifruit orchard offers a compelling opportunity in the heart of Kerikeri's premium horticultural region. Spread across 43.16 canopy hectares (more than 25 ha of producing area), this property is now entering its prime after overcoming early management and infrastructural challenges that are reflective of the numbers produced to date. Don’t let this sidetrack you from the apparent that is superior infrastructure and an immense amount of rework that has taken place to now present this prime opportunity to market. Background: The first 2–3 years of orchard development faced complications due to poor management and less-than-ideal decisions around rootstock selection and establishment techniques. However, since then, a turnaround has been implemented with refined orchard practices, extensive replanting regime, and professional oversight—bringing the orchard back on track and setting it up for excellent long-term returns. ________________________________________ Orchard Structure & Development •Blocks: 10 blocks, comprising mostly R19 (Zespri Red) plantings from 2020–2023 •Planting Density: 6m x 4m bays with opposed male rows (~1040 plants/ha) •Shelter: 4m shelter walls every 12m (East-West orientation) •Varieties: Primarily R19; blocks also include rootstock-only areas and grafted nursery plants •Producing Area: 25.53 ha licenced and production ready ( approx. 30ha grafted ) •Non-Producing: approx.13.0 ha ________________________________________ Water & Irrigation •System: Automated Netafim irrigation system with fertigation line and 23ml drip lines •Irrigation Zones: 10 separate irrigation zones •Water Source: 20,000m³ irrigation pond, water consent of 81,000m³/year, also 25liters per second consented take from the creek on high flow. •Bores: Two production bores yielding approx. 40,000m³ •Power: All irrigation systems run off a 110KVA generator ________________________________________ Estimated Tray Production The orchard is now demonstrating solid production potential with a steady rise in tray numbers: Year - Estimated Trays 2024 - 11,026 trays 2025 - 66,703 trays 2026 - 132,925 trays 2027 - 198,140 trays Figures reflect projections from planted blocks based on current establishment and maturity progress.
