The balance of the land is old Rooitea plantings and wintergrain varieties like oats, rye, barley and lupines. Wheat also planted periodically.
The soils of the farm are ideal to grow all types of vegetables like, potatoes, onions, carrots, watermelons, sweet melons and more. Even citrus will grow on the eastern part of the farm with good results.
