An exceptional opportunity to acquire three islands — La de la Casa, El Pisvae, and La Valentina — comprising a total of 1,140 hectares of productive land with established agricultural and livestock activities and significant potential for expansion.

Historically dedicated to farming and livestock production, the islands currently support cattle raising, pig farming, poultry, and a variety of agricultural crops. Their substantial land area, island setting, and versatility present an attractive proposition for investors seeking to establish, consolidate, or expand agricultural operations in Panama.

Existing Operations and Agricultural Activities:

Livestock and Animal Production:
• Cattle currently in production.
• Facilities dedicated to pig farming.
• Chickens and other poultry.

Established Agricultural Crops:
• Corn fields.
• Banana plantations.
• Rice cultivation.
• Melon and watermelon crops, with planting scheduled for December.

Land Advantages:
• Although surrounded by water, the island does not flood, even during maximum tides of 17 to 18 feet.
• Clearing is permitted to create grazing areas and expand livestock capacity, provided that the 23-meter mangrove protection buffer is respected.
• With three islands forming a single property portfolio, the buyer benefits from privacy, scale, and the flexibility to combine livestock, crop cultivation, and other uses.
• Versatile agricultural use: Potential to combine livestock operations, crop production, and other activities compatible with current regulations.

Development Potential
The other two islands may offer additional opportunities for productive use, subject to technical assessments and the necessary permits and approvals from the relevant authorities.

Potential applications to explore include:
• Seeking the appropriate authorizations from Panama’s Ministry of Environment (MiAMBIENTE) for permitted interventions in mangrove areas.

• Applying to the Panama Maritime Authority (AMP) for a concession to construct a private dock, subject to legal and technical feasibility.

Access, Transportation, and Logistics
• Maritime access, with the possibility of evaluating a private access point subject to the relevant authorizations.
• Transportation of personnel, livestock, tractors, and machinery by barge from Pedregal.
• Reported cargo barge capacity of up to 150 head of cattle per trip, in addition to equipment and machinery, depending on the vessel and operating conditions.
• An established agricultural region where livestock operations and the cultivation of melons, corn, chiricano beans, and rice are common.
• Potential access to experienced agricultural labor and established transportation practices used throughout the area.

An Opportunity for Agricultural Investors
Islas Los Higueros offer an appealing proposition for agricultural investors, livestock operators, and commercial crop producers seeking a large-scale property with existing productive activities and opportunities for future growth.
