12 acres and contracted water lisence. What to do?
Hi all, im very seriously looking at a 16 acre property with a house and 12 acres of cab sav vines that are irrigated by recyled water. The problem is i know nothing about vines and the water is locked into a contract at a cost of $6000 per year. To have the vines managed will cost to much ( quoted 30 grand! ) so i would likely tear them out with my fathers earth moving equipment. My question is what do i run or grow on the property to cover the cost of the water and possibly make a profit? The land is an hour south of adelaide and reasonably sloping in nature. Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated!
