The farm includes:

• 36 solar panels dedicated to powering the water system
• Separate solar power system serving the staff accommodation
• 20KVA diesel generator for backup power
• Electricity grid connection available approximately 1 km from the property

This combination of renewable and backup power systems helps maintain essential farm operations even during periods of low solar generation or maintenance.

Secure, Fenced Compound

Security has been carefully considered throughout the property.

The entire farm is enclosed by a 6-foot-high electric perimeter fence, powered by solar energy and supported by the diesel generator.

The system provides additional protection against trespassers and wildlife while helping secure crops, equipment and other farm assets.

The property also has two 800-watt solar-powered streetlights, providing additional lighting and visibility around the farm at night.

• One farm manager’s house, providing convenient accommodation for the person responsible for overseeing day-to-day operations

Having staff and management accommodation on the property can improve supervision, security and operational efficiency.

Farm Equipment Included
