Case study

Three North Coast cane farms sold as a cluster

PLAS312 haKing Cetshwayo15 months

Three neighbouring cane farms near Eshowe, totalling 312 hectares, sold together to the state for a grower support scheme in 15 months.

The challenge

Three owners, three mandates, one mill, and the state's preference for a single submission.

What we did

We aligned the three files, prepared one ratoon age map and one mill supply schedule, and submitted a cluster pack the district office could approve in one committee cycle.

The outcome

All three registered within the same month. The grower scheme took over supply to the mill without a missed season.

Identifying details have been changed at the seller's request. Figures are as recorded on the file.

Next step

Your farm could be the next case study

Twenty minutes on the phone. We tell you honestly whether a state sale is the right route for your farm, what it would take, and how long it usually runs. No cost, and no obligation to give us a mandate afterwards.
