FYI, the Yucatan produces the best and most popular Chili Habanero peppers in Mexico. How do we know that? Because demand for the Yucatecan Habaneros is so high domestically and for export, that 48-49% of all chili Habanero produced in and exported from Mexico come from the state of Yucatan! More on all of this a little later.... ___________________________________________________________________ Just 90 minutes to Merida, 10 to the charming community of Sucila and 15 to Tizimin, this is an opportunity not only for growth but to also start making a return from Day One. This is a currently operating business developed over years of innovation, hard work, and love for the project. The owner is forced to sell because of an illness in the family but will be available to bring the new owners up to speed (Whether on this ranch or his friend´s equipment we are also offering) on all aspects of making this already profitable operation even more viable, near as well as long term. When combined with this rock bottom price and...current unprecedented Peso/Dollar exchange rates this is one our VERY BEST INVESTMENT VALUES.... The Tilapia farm occupies just 8 hectares ( 19.66 acres) of a 79 hectare (HAS) rancho of just under 195 acres. The farm plus the additional remaining 71 HAS/174+ acres, is a much better idea because your earnings and future potential, while substantial, are only just beginning with the Tilapia sales. For that reason, our seller has decided only to sell the entire project in lieu of any type of subdivision. The entire property is serviced by 3-phase electricity... a 35 hp deep-well, submersible, irrigation system and is fully fenced. There are extensive corrals for cattle and horses and plenty of fertile soil not only to grow feed but the owner has also grown profitable cash crops such as the world famous Yucatán Habanero Chilies as well as Papaya which are also highly valued for their export quality. *** Click on any photo to enlarge *** Also included is a new diesal-powered, 45HP,mergency electrical generator valued today at well over $300K pesos. If buyers should also choose to live on-site, all that remains is to design and build their dream, Ranch House and whatever other desired additional construction, all of which we can assist with from design through turn-key construction. In that case, the owner reports he would be willing to temporarily rent out, inexpensively, an additional house he has in the nearby community of Sucila, just a 10-15 min drive away. That house, incredibly, is also available for purchase and IS INCLUDED in the overall price of the ranch listed above! If buyers of the farm prefer to rent and not purchase the house in Sucila, our seller has indicated that he will nevertheless take the house off the market until such reasonable time as they, the buyers, no longer require its use. The Tilapia farm is currently netting approximately $55,000 - $65,000 pesos per month although the owner reports that they are currently running at only 90% of total capacity due to the owner's need to be in Merida with his family a good deal of the time. There are 17 outdoor tanks with two additional 12 meter diameter tanks recently brought online, each of which will accommodate 4000 to 5000 adult fish. All facilities, tanks, amenities, and equipment from gravity fed filtration to Oxygen aeration equipment is of course included. Your Tilapia Market is growing and will continue to for many years to come. The owner reports that his clients in Cancun, Playa del Carmen, Merida, and beyond, are literally waiting for his phone call to say the next batch of fish are ready. The fish are generally ready when the average weight is approximately 350 grams when the fish are 6 months of age. He reports though that he has one client that special orders the fish at 450 grams, a custom order, so that they keep that tank growing for an additional 2-3 weeks. It´s really down to a very exact science at this point! About the Tilapia: Tilapia is a fresh water fish which, when grown in captivity, has no disease, no parasites, and no smell when cooking unlike ocean-caught fish which nowadays are increasingly contaminated with, among other pollutants, Mercury, PCB´s, parasites, and potentially even Super Bacteria, the kind highly resistant to antibiotics. Not so with the Tilapia. It is also loaded with Omega 3 fatty acids so that it´s not only clean, healthy, delicious, and odor free, but also aids in the reduction of serum cholesterol ! Who said "Everything that tastes good is bad for us!" ? Unfortunately, environmental issues around land use (eg: petroleum-based pesticides and fertilizers which not only pollute the soil but also underground aquifers ...and wash out into the seas) will not likely be resolved, or better, reversed any time soon. As such, and as public awareness increases around the dangers posed by the over-consumption of red meats, the demand for healthy, clean and life-supporting fish will inevitably increase to your benefit as well as to the benefit of your consumer clients. Technical Basics: But what about potential pollution caused by the run-off and solid waste generated by the Tilapia farm? Glad you asked! FYI, I will personally no longer eat, for example, Farmed Salmon although Salmon is one of my very favorite ocean delicacies. More and more information is surfacing around the problems these farmed fish have as well as the adverse impact their farming operations are causing in the oceans where these farm operations are located. First of all, of course, the Tilapia farm is land based and as such, will never pollute the seas nor will your fish be polluted ...by the seas. Let´s use this Tilapia farm to continue this brief but important discussion. On the Sucila ("Sue-key-la") farm, the tanks are cleaned twice daily by siphoning off 20% of the water in each tank and then refilling with clean, Oxygen-enriched well water from as much as 30 meters below the surface of the soil. The way they have brilliantly set up this very straight-forward, low-tech, siphoning procedure, solid waste and waste water are drained from the tank´s bottom and automatically fed through a series of underground pipes to a holding and separating tank which is also purified by the sun. As the non-odiferous, waste water reaches the 2-compartment holding tank, solid waste is separated out leaving the nitrogen (and other trace elements) rich water to then be forwarded to the farm´s irrigation system to be further diluted and used not only for irrigation but as an incredibly rich, organic source of natural fertilizer. The solid waste tank is drained once per 3-4 weeks, the solid waste allowed to sun-dry, and then also be used as fertilizer on the farm or potentially be bagged and sold through other venues as yet another profitable by-product of the farm´s production cycle. What about additional profit potential? By combining the solid waste with composting vegetable matter instead of using it directly on your plants, you have now created the perfect growing medium for launching into highly beneficial and profitable "Vermiculture". Please see: http://www.bae.ncsu.edu/topic/vermicomposting/vermiculture/ and.................................. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vermicompost Briefly, the humus created by the earthworms is approximately 300 times richer in nutrients than any other humus on the planet. The earthworms, by the way, live an average of 15 years and begin reproducing in just a few months after being born. They also reproduce at an astounding rate. Two examples will suffice: 1). Beginning with just 250 worms in 1 cubic meter of composted medium, in just two months those 250 worms will have grown to a population of approximately 1750 worms, a 700% plus increase and, in the meantime, will have converted that original cubic meter of composted material into "worm casings" or humus. In 8 more weeks you would have approximately 12,500 worms and an additional 7 cubic meters of humus to harvest. By week 24 you would have 85,750 worms and an additional 49 cubic meters of humus, and so on and so on. But let´s back the numbers down just to keep this "simple". Let´s say you reach a point where you have 50,000 worms (probably week 13-15 if you started with just 250 worms). Starting with 50K worms and letting them multiply for one year, you would end up with over 76 million worms and more ...tons...of valuable humus than you can probably imagine! What on earth would you do with so may worms? First of all you could create the richest soil and highest production of vegetables, flowers, and/or trees possible for starters. You could obviously sell tons of the richest humus on the planet in bags or bulk as well. And the worms? The worms do not have nor do they transmit any kind of disease. They are very clean and safe. Period. They are also made up of between 75 and 80% or more ...of PROTEIN. Protein is what makes animals ...and fish...grow and fatten and become commercially viable. The Purina brand "balanced" fish pellets that are currently fed to the Tilapia from month 4-6, before they are harvested, is composed of only 37% protein, less than half of that obtainable from your worms. It is also accounts for 60% plus of your overhead. Over 60%! Please see our page: Cutting the cost of Tilapia for a more detailed explanation. What if on your adjacent rancho you grew your protein at almost no cost whatsoever and indeed made a substantial profit not only from the worms but their by-products such as humus and protein feed for your animals? Not only are you now eliminating a significant part of your production costs while raising faster growing, healthier, and larger fish, you are also increasing production on the agricultural side of your ranch production of cash crops. Oh, and sheep and cattle need protein too. Right! But will they also eat earthworms? They indeed will if they are dried and powdered into Worm Meal... then mixed into their regular food.... If you are already involved in ranching and/or animal husbandry of any kind, you know how much you are spending these days on nutritional supplements for your animals. You also know that these same supplements and today´s inflation are rapidly eating away at your profits. By simply raising highly profitable earthworms you have the opportunity to put profits and health back into your operations...of all kinds, making your overall production efforts pay off probably in ways you have not considered possible until now. All of this and more is why we initially recommended that our potential buyer not consider splitting up this property. For us, it just does not make financial sense given the wealth of possibilities if the entire property and therefore production cycle and potential stays in tact. Please Click Here To Continue . |
