You have requested a comparison of net incomes per hectare for: Kiwifruit orchards Drystock land Dairy land And also the land use possibilities of the "gully" land lying between Oropi Road and Ohauiti Road in the event that the easier contoured land is used for residential development.

Kiwifruit As you will be aware, there are two main kiwifruit varieties, these being the Hayward (green) variety and the Hort 16A (gold) variety.
