Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Partnership liquidity is adequate and distributions to Limited Partners
are currently  $120,000.00 per quarter. This rate of distributions is planned to
continue as reserves  increase.  There is no current  intention  to increase the
distributions until the Partnership has paid all of its outstanding debts.

Results of Operations

     The  Partnership  continued to operate at a  break-even  rate in the second
quarter 1997. This result is not indicative of the results for the entire fiscal
year,  due to the seasonal  nature of the almond growing  business.  Almonds are
harvested  in August  through  October and the crop  revenues  and  expenses are
recognized  at that  time.  Since  the  partnership's  crop  care  has not  been
completed for this growing  season,  it is not possible to say if cultural costs
will be higher or lower than last year's  costs.  At this time though,  it seems
that cultural costs will be substantially the same as last year.

The 1997 California  almond crop is expected to be at a near record level.  This
will have an effect of the prices received for the Partnership  almond crop, but
it is too early to assess the effect.
