• Six (6) Acres 
• Easily accessible and ideally along a major road
• Representative of typical Saddle Hills growing conditions

Ideally, cereals would be seeded onto a pea or canola stubble and peas and canola onto a cereal stubble. This means that ideal plots would have these in very close proximity or a perennial forage stand that was terminated in the full.

Other assets include:

• Near to an ACIS weather station
