🌿 6.9 Hectare Property – Certified Strawberry Tree Plantation – Benquerenças, Castelo Branco
Just a few minutes from the city of Castelo Branco, near Benquerenças, lies this exceptional rural property — fully fenced, with public access on three sides and two entrances already built, ensuring easy access and excellent management conditions.
With a total area of 6.9 hectares (17 acres), the land has excellent drainage, sits at around 360 meters of altitude, and enjoys superb sun exposure — ideal for the thriving strawberry tree (Arbutus unedo) plantation, a species increasingly valued for its profitability, resilience, and health benefits.
🌳 Certified Strawberry Tree Plantation

Planted in December 2019, following professional soil analysis
5,500 improved plants (clone 3), purchased from the certified company Greenclon
Soil carefully prepared through plowing and cross-ripping
No artificial irrigation, taking advantage of the land’s natural fertility and local climate
Active IFAP agricultural support, with PU for 2025 already approved

A sustainable agricultural project with a proven track record and stabilized production — ideal for investors seeking long-term value and environmental balance in central Portugal.
💶 Economic Advantages of the Strawberry Tree

Traditional and innovative products: medronho brandy, jams, jellies, liqueurs, and even modern creations such as bread, truffles, chocolates, and natural cosmetics.
High profitability per hectare: several studies indicate that strawberry tree cultivation can be more profitable per hectare than eucalyptus, thanks to the high market value of its fruits and derivatives.
Local resource valorization: as an autochthonous species, it strengthens local identity and offers excellent potential for certified production and export markets.

🌱 Environmental Advantages

Fire resistance: a naturally fire-resilient species, essential for sustainable forest management in high-risk areas.
Biodiversity support: contributes to stronger, more diverse ecosystems, providing habitat for pollinators and native fauna.
Sustainable cultivation: thrives in poor soils, requires no irrigation, and has minimal environmental impact, making it a truly eco-friendly crop.

❤️ Health Benefits

Antioxidant properties: the fruit is rich in antioxidants that fight free radicals and may help prevent aging-related diseases.
Anti-inflammatory and diuretic effects: traditionally used in infusions, liqueurs, and jams with beneficial effects for the body.
Rich in vitamins and fiber: helps boost the immune system and supports natural digestive balance.

✨ This property offers a rare combination of agricultural potential, environmental sustainability, and proximity to the city — an excellent investment opportunity in Portugal’s Beira Interior region, in one of the most promising and sustainable crops of the future.
