This gorgeous 100 acre parcel consists of 80+/- acres of Super High Density Planting (HDP) Olive vineyard centrally located on Cottonwood Road between Hwy 99 & Hwy 70 in the middle of Butte County. The planting is on 13-foot by 5-foot spacing resulting in 670 trees per acre with the support of a tre...llis system.

WATER: Tremendous water with a 50HP Pump producing 2,500 gallons/minute provides irrigation through emitters on drip-line. Laser leveled and terraced for draining. PROFITABLE: Has a great Supplier Contract. BONUS: Being within 1 mile of the large PG&E substation creates another big benefit.

Also note, we are currently being courted by multiple other solar companies for the remaining 50 acres with the price/terms yet to be committed. This energy contract would GREATLY increase the net income!!! CAP rate would be 9.1% with the one contract and farming 50+/- acres of olives remaining or 12.71% CAP rate if (2) option contracts are exercised at $3,750/acre for 100 acres total.
