Rosa Sattoria is more than a 100-acre avocado ranch — it is the culmination of decades of scientific innovation, hands-on management, and proven agricultural excellence. At its heart is Rick Marrocco, a renowned entomologist, agronomist, and principal of Fallbrook Ag-Lab, who has spent over 40 years advancing California’s avocado industry.
Rick’s career is a showcase of achievement. He has advised thousands of growers across California and Mexico, published widely on orchard management, served on the California Avocado Commission’s Production Research Committee, and been featured in industry journals for pioneering irrigation, fertilization, and grafting techniques. His expertise has been sought in court cases, research programs, and by growers aiming to push their yields to the highest levels.
Under his stewardship, Rosa Sattoria thrives. With 70 acres of producing Hass avocados, supported by secure water sources, desalination systems, and industry-standard cultural practices, the ranch delivers both stability and upside. Rick’s scientific approach ensures the orchard operates at peak efficiency — with practices rooted in leaf and soil analysis, irrigation optimization, and crop forecasting. The result is an operation that consistently performs above benchmark levels, and a property that stands as a model of California avocado production.
For an investor, Rosa Sattoria offers the rare combination of world-class acreage and the assurance that it has been nurtured and perfected under the guidance of one of the industry’s leading authorities. This is more than farmland — it is a living example of what is possible when science, stewardship, and opportunity come together.
