With the significant amount of trees, acorns represent a rich source of natural food, whether for pigs, sheep, goats, cows, or even for game species such as deer and wild boar. Acorns are widely recognized for their nutritional quality and their positive impact on the production of excellent meat, as in the case of Iberian pigs, which benefit greatly from this type of diet.

This diversity of hunting makes the property a privileged location for those who wish to create a Tourist Hunting Zone or explore commercial hunting, offering even more value to the investor. The density and quality of hunting, together with the absence of hunting reserves on the property, facilitate the creation of a highly profitable hunting project.Water ResourcesThe presence of 7 lagoons, which maintain water throughout the year, guarantees the sustainability of agricultural and livestock activities, in addition to providing a natural habitat for wildlife. These lagoons are an added value both to support agriculture and for rural tourism projects or nature conservation activities.European Support and SubsidiesHerdade do Carapetal is eligible for annual support from the European Union under agricultural and forestry programs. These subsidies encourage sustainable forest management, the preservation of natural habitats and agricultural and livestock exploration, helping to reduce maintenance costs and increasing the property's profitability.

The owner can benefit from subsidies such as the PAC (Common Agricultural Policy), aimed at agricultural, forestry and biodiversity preservation projects, maximizing long-term returns.Infrastructures and AccessThe farm is completely fenced with 2 meter fences, ensuring the protection of resources and fauna. The various entrances facilitate vehicle access to any point on the property. Although it does not yet have irrigation infrastructure, electricity is just 200 meters away, facilitating future electrification, whether for agricultural or tourist support.
