PART I-FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership liquidity continues to improve. Distributions to Limited
Partners have increased to $162,450.00 per quarter. This rate of distributions
is planned to continue as long as reserves remain steady. There is no current
intention to increase the distributions beyond the current level 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 1998. 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.
Because of the bad weather during the almond pollination in February and
March, the 1998 crop is expected to be smaller than the 1997 crop. It is to
early to determine what effect, if any, that this may have on 1998 almond
prices.
