Land To the west, the majority of the land is classified as being X which is a clay loam, excellent for winter arable production. To the east, approximately x hectares is similar soils to that the west, with the balance being lighter humus rich soils suitable for a wider range of cropping to include spring crops and potentially higher value vegetables and root crops. Soil analysis Comprehensive field-by-field soil analysis is available from the vendor’s agent on request. Due to significant deposits of lime-rich minerals in the area, the soils to date have required no active management of the pH levels.

Farm Buildings The farm base is located to the west of the land, approximately 5km south of Jekabpils. Sitting within approximately 4 hectares, the farm base consists of approximately 5,000 tonnes of on- floor grain storage, a grain dryer, a weighbridge, a farm office, two residential apartments, a farm workshop, and various ancillary farm buildings. There is 3-phase electricity and mains water at the farm yard. As part of a planned improvement project, it is intended that the grain storage is increased with 3 x 1000 tonne grain bins and a grain dryer. Also proposed is the improvement of the farm office and the workshop. The total cost of the project is estimated at € 700,000, of which 40% has been secured via European Union grant funding. This will be made available to the company.
