     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".

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, 1999, were $83,000, compared to
$114,000 for the same quarter in 1998.  The quarterly decrease in crop revenue
is attributed to picking 64,000 pounds of avocados at an average price of $1.28
per pound this quarter compared to 140,000 at $.81 per pound the prior year's
quarter ended June 30.  The 1999 crop decreased as a result of fewer avocado
trees due to property sales in 1998 and 1999 totaling 109 acres, leaving only 56
acres as of June 30, 1999.

Operating costs and expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 1999, decreased by
$32,000, from $102,000 to $70,000.  Cultural care costs decreased by $16,000
from $45,000 to $29,000.  The reason for the decrease results from significantly
reduced planted acreage and related pounds picked in 1999 compared to 1998.

Professional Services increased $2,000 from $25,000 to $27,000.  The main
reason for the increase was the cost of a revised property analysis by an
appraiser.  Other expenses decreased $18,000 from $32,000 to $14,000.  The
decline mainly results from a reduction in property taxes due to prior year
property sales.

Other income increased $60,000 from $74,000 to $134,000.  The increase is
mainly attributed to recognizing deferred profit of $59,000 for the quarter
ended June 30, 1999, compared to $18,000 the prior year.  The early payoff of
two notes totaling $194,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 1999 accounted
for $57,000 of the quarter's $59,000 deferred profit recognized.  Interest
income decreased $5,000 during the quarter as a result of a reduction of the
average outstanding notes receivable compared to the prior year.  Other income
increased $7,000 as a result of selling shares of Fruit Growers Lab (FGL) held
by Green Gold back to FGL.

There was one ten acre parcel sold in the quarter ended June 30, 1999 for
$111,000 cash.  Cash offers totaling $214,000 have also been accepted and are
expected to close next quarter on two other parcels (16 acres).  The marketing
and sales program is actively underway for the remaining 4 parcels (39 acres).

Green Gold Consolidated implemented a note discount program in an effort to
convert outstanding notes into Partnership cash.  All 13 existing note holders
with balances totaling $1.2 million were contacted and offered discounts of 5%
to 15% of the loan balance if they would retire their debt within 60-90 days.
The discount percent varied based on the date of maturity of the loan and
property appraised loan-to-value analysis.  A total of $349,000 less $26,000 in
discounts has been converted to cash through June as a result of the program.
All remaining note holders have shown interest in participating in the program.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 1999, the Partnership has cash reserves of approximately
$1,004,000 to cover operating expenses and any other small amount of remaining
real estate development costs.  This is expected to be sufficient to comply with
the business plan.
