| WATERCOURSES |
The Yaguarón stream (watercourse which gives its name to the district) crosses the property for more than 3500 meters (3.825 yards) and actually ends up in the field, forming a marsh that crosses the southern limit. The marsh covers an area of approximately 100 hectares (247 acres) in the property, with an average depth of 50 cm. (20 inches.)
The Sa’yju brook is a natural riverbed, with water virtually all year and runs from north to south across 4 paddocks. It is cleaned and occasionally fed with water from other places.
The property has several water channels (fords), product of former rice plantations, which are useful to distribute water to various paddocks. These are cleaned and cleared in case of drought. |
| SOIL TYPE, SLOPES, LOW FIELDS, HILLS |
The texture of the soil is predominantly clayey loam and in some places is loamy sand. The water table fluctuates between 8 and 20 meters deep (11.5 to 65 ft) , depending on the area and on times of drought or rain.
The topography is basically flat with a slight slope from north to south. The highest point above sea level is 83 meters (272 ft) (at entrance gate) and the lowest is 72 (236 ft) meters (marsh at the southern border - about 20% of the total area). The difference is about 11 meters (36 ft) in 7km (4.4 miles), resulting in an outstanding overall average slope of 0.16%. | | APTITUDE | The property is currently used for rearing zebu type cattle (hybrids of Nelore and Brahman breeds) on natural pasture under an extensive grazing regime. The complete cycle is performed (raising, rearing, and fattening). The cattle herd includes 360 cows and 18 bulls. The annual production of calves is more than 200 heads. It is performed with natural and stationary service. Also about 100 hectares (247 acres) are dedicated to rice cultivated flooding with water from the Yaguas stream. The work to prepare the soil is started in July-August and the harvest ends in May-June. Never the same paddock is used for rice cultivation for more than 2 consecutive years. The historical average yield of the cereal is 5,200 kg / ha. (4,640 lb/acre) |
