26 ha DOUGLAS IRRIGATION FARM
This neat Douglas irrigation farm, on the Prieska road, situated on the Vaal River, irrigates from the Atherton Canal which forms part of the Orange River system. This is an extremely economical unit as it brings in about R400 000 per annum in rental income, excluding the income from the irrigated crops.
The river development is worth approximately R2 million.
