                           (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

                             NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                       (Unaudited)


A.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Property and Depreciation - Property is stated at the lower of cost or net
     realizable value.  Depreciation is provided on a straight-line method over
     the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.

     Inventories - Inventories, consisting of growing crops, is valued at the 
     lower of cost or net realizable value under the first-in, first-out (FIFO) 
     method. Cost is defined as cultural care costs related to the growing 
     crops.

     Income Taxes - The Partnership reports its tax returns on the cash basis of
     accounting.  No provision for income taxes is included in the accompanying
     financial statements as the Partnership's results of operations are 
     distributed to the partners for inclusion in their respective income tax 
     returns.

     Profit Recognition on Real Estate Sales - It is the Partnership's policy to
     defer profit on real estate sales until such time as the purchaser's 
     cumulative investment and continued involvement in the property meet the 
     minimum criteria for full profit recognition as set forth in the Financial 
     Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real 
     Estate. Until such time as profit can be recognized under the full accrual 
     method, the cost recovery and installment methods are used.

     Net Income Per Limited Partnership Interest - Net income per limited
     partnership interest was calculated using the weighted average of limited
     partnership interests outstanding during the year and the Limited Partners'
     share of the net income.

B.   GENERAL

     Green Gold Consolidated was organized in accordance with the Provisions
     of the California Uniform Limited Partnership Act for the purpose of
     receiving the assets and liabilities of twelve limited partnerships under
     common management and thereby consolidating the operations of those
     partnerships under an exchange transaction effective June 30, 1983.  Under
     the exchange transaction, the Partnership issued 10,000,000 limited
     partnership interests (pro rata) to the holders of interests in the twelve
     individual limited partnerships in exchange for the assets and liabilities 
     of those partnerships.

     Under the provisions of the partnership agreement, profits and losses are
     allocated in the ratio of 93.5% to the Limited Partners and 6.5% to the
     General Partner, provided that prior to the first fiscal quarter during 
     which a distribution is made to the General Partner from the proceeds of 
     the property sales or refinancing, all gains and losses resulting from 
     property sales are allocated in the ratio of 99% to the Limited Partners 
     and 1% to the General Partner.

     The combination of the twelve partnerships into one partnership was treated
     as a reorganization of entities under common control, accounted for similar
     to a "pooling of interest".<PAGE>

Item 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
          CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Results of Operations

Crop sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, were $114,000, compared to
$142,000 for the same quarter in 1997.  The quarterly decrease in crop revenue
is attributed to picking 140,000 pounds of avocados this quarter compared to
204,000 the prior year's quarter ended June 30.  Crop prices for the quarter
ended June 30, 1998, averaged $.81 per pound compared to $.69 per pound in
the same quarter in 1997.  Avocado production in 1998 is budgeted at 487,000
pounds; however, this may vary somewhat based on weather conditions, the
impact of the normal tree cycle and the effects of the "avocado" persea mite. 
Pounds produced in 1997 were 416,000.

Operating costs and expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, decreased
$19,000, from $121,000 to $102,000.  Cultural care costs decreased $14,000 from
$59,000 to $45,000.  The main reason for the decrease results from reduced 
irrigation and water costs due to the earlier heavy rainfall and reduced 
picking costs as as a result of picking 64,000 pounds less this quarter compared
to the same quarter 1997.

Professional Services decreased $3,000 from $28,000 to $25,000.  The decrease
results from reduction in investor services costs and payment of the 2% of 
cash receipts to the "manager" for its services compared to the same quarter
1997.

Other expenses decreased $2,000 from $34,000 to $32,000.  The main reason for 
the decrease is the combined effect of a $9,000 system costs decrease from the
prior quarter associated with upgrades of software and hardware, and a $6,000
payment of property tax for 97-98 taxes for a parcel foreclosed in the quarter
ended December 31, 1997.

Other income decreased $117,000 from $191,000 to $74,000.  The decrease is
mainly attributed to recognizing deferred profit of $116,000 from the early
payoff of one note totaling $155,000 during the prior year quarter ended 
June 30, 1997.

Offers have been accepted on six parcels in the quarter ended June 30, 1998, 
compared to none for the same quarter 1997.  The gross sales amount for all 
parcels is $621,000.  All sales are in escrow and are expected to close in the 
next quarter ended September 30, 1998.  The marketing and sales program is 
actively underway for the remaining 11 parcels totaling 109 acres.  Costs 
associated with installing water meters and splitting irrigation systems are 
estimated at $50,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 1998, the Partnership has cash reserves of approximately
$601,000 to cover operating expenses and the small amount of remaining real
estate development costs.  This is expected to be sufficient to comply with the
business plan.
