URGENT UPDATE: Two prime farmland parcels near Dowerin are now available for sale, with offers closing on October 7 at 11am (AWST). Listed by Nutrien Harcourts WA, these highly productive farms can be purchased as a whole or split, providing flexible options for buyers looking to invest in the Wheatbelt region.
These farms, known as Lydford and Lees, boast exceptional soil quality and a well-managed cropping rotation, featuring one-third canola, lupins, vetch, or pasture each year. They have been meticulously maintained by the current long-term lessee, with a strong history of fertilization, including the application of nearly 3500 tonnes of lime in the last decade.
The land has shown impressive productivity, with a recorded average yield of 2.75 tonnes per hectare for cereals over the past five years. This is an urgent opportunity for prospective buyers, as the current cropping year includes over 300 hectares of lupin/canola/spray-topped pasture, which will benefit the new owners in the upcoming 2026 season.
Located approximately 30 kilometers southeast of Dowerin and 33 kilometers north of Cunderdin, these farms are easily accessible via the sealed Minnivale Road. This area is known for its reliable rainfall and strong community support, making it an ideal location for families looking to establish roots in the Wheatbelt.
Both farms are equipped with essential infrastructure, including a four-stand shearing shed, two 42,000-litre liquid fertiliser storage tanks, and various general-purpose sheds. A fresh, solar pump-equipped bore and dams ensure a reliable water supply, while the properties are fenced to a standard considered ‘stockproof’, facilitating easy livestock and machinery movements.
In addition to the impressive physical attributes, the lessee has documented effective disease control measures, including the application of liquid banding at seeding. However, some paddocks experienced challenges with ryegrass control due to dry conditions, but the lessee is willing to discuss options for crop topping with potential buyers.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire highly productive farmland in a vibrant community setting. The farms will be sold by tender, with interested buyers encouraged to act quickly to secure their bid before the imminent deadline.
Stay tuned for further updates as this sale progresses. Don’t miss your chance to invest in one of the best agricultural holdings in the region!
