A third holding, Smiths, to the east on higher ground above the Springhurst interchange on the freeway, is 118 hectares and has two dams.

"We are all now in our seventies, so this sale offer is part of our personal plans to implement our staged withdrawal from farming after our long involvement," the Humphry family said.

Dave Colvin, of Elders Real Estate Wangaratta, said the Nesbitt's parcel was worth more than $19,000 a hectare, with the smaller holdings around $14,500 per hectare.
