La Criolla
Overview
A 10,600-hectare property with a mixed livestock-crop profile. The land combines three distinct zones: roughly 3,800 hectares with crop potential based on soil quality, 3,000 hectares of wetland (bañado) with natural pasture suited to cattle, and native woodland.
Fresh water access from the Porteño stream, via a 3 km channel and connecting lane into the property. The system is backed by 6 reservoirs of roughly 7,000,000 liters each, 4 water catchments and 2 windmills.
Holds an approved land-clearing permit for 3,500 hectares, opening the door to expanded production acreage. The property falls in a green OTBN zone under Formosa's native forest zoning — the least restrictive category for productive forest management.
Farm Structure
Infrastructure
3 km channel to the Porteño stream. A 4 km access lane, 150 m wide, connecting to the stream. Perimeter fencing. 2 full corral sets with chutes, a dip bath and a 3,000 kg scale. 6 reservoirs of roughly 7,000,000 liters each. 4 water catchments. 2 windmills. Equipment and tool shed.
Buildings
1 main house. 5 fully built staff houses.
Roads
Internal roads and perimeter firebreaks, with some sections needing maintenance.
The Investment Case
La Criolla is a mixed-use property with favorable regulatory standing: a green OTBN zone with a land-clearing permit already approved for 3,500 hectares. Surface fresh-water access from the Porteño stream resolves the region's main operating constraint and sets this property apart from others nearby. Soils with crop potential and an established forage base support several paths forward: extensive cattle ranching, progressive crop development, or a mixed-use model.
