A prime ready to harvest Pinus radiata Forest planted in 1966. As a 54-year-old forest, as you would expect it is ready to harvest. The sale includes 100% of the shares in the company owning the property so includes the land and trees on the property, 2,379 ETS credits attached to the property and the resource consent held by the company.

Harvesting could not be easier as it is right at the edge of Dobson township with a well formed road, not only to the boundary but right through the forest so no roading costs prior to harvest.

The land area of 70 ha is not all planted as there are electricity lines through the middle, hence a strip that is not planted and is the reason for the presence and quality of the road. There is somewhere between 55 and 60 ha of trees.

The terrain varies from flat to easy slope so simple shovel harvesting would be able to be used.

The trees were planted at a high density and have not been pruned or thinned so have grown to between 40 and 50 metres in height and are generally very straight. There is virtually no windfall and with an annual average (40-year record sourced from NIWA) rainfall of 2,760mm. Range from 2,080mm 3600mm, they have grown well.

Breast height diameter is from 1,200mm to 500mm with an average estimated to be about 700mm.

This forest has a huge weight of timber and is definitely for sale and won't wait around for hesitation.
