Rustic Land in Carvalhal, Bombarral - 1,704 Hectares with Growing Stone Pine Forest This rustic land, located in the Carvalhal region, municipality of Bombarral, offers an excellent investment opportunity. With a total area of 1,704 hectares, the land faces south, benefiting from excellent sun exposure throughout the day, ideal for sustainable growth crops. The land has a stone pine plantation (Pinus pinea), carried out in 2016, with approximately 1107 trees. To ensure the success of the plantation, it was necessary to replant 200 trees in the first year, 90 in the second and about 50 in the third. The plantation has been carefully monitored with regular fertilization, which has resulted in vigorous development of the trees. At the moment, there is a large patch of pine trees already in an advanced growth phase, with a profitability projection from 2030. It is important to note that the trees were not grafted, a strategy adopted to avoid losses associated with grafting, preserving the integrity and natural growth of the plants. The stone pine is a tree of great economic value, especially in Portugal, due to the production of pine nuts, which is in high demand in the market. The Portuguese pine nut is highly valued for its quality and flavor, being used both in gastronomy and for export. Profitable production of pine nuts typically begins between 15 and 20 years after planting, with consistent and growing harvests projected for decades to come. One hectare of stone pine forest generates excellent yields. This is, therefore, an excellent medium and long-term investment for those looking for a sustainable return in a constantly growing market.
