Tract 1 totals 1,134 acres more or less and boasts a tremendous water supply, fences that rate from very good to excellent and a healthy Native grass plant community. The crown jewel of this parcel is a spring-fed watershed lake totaling approximately 30 acres. The spring that feeds this lake originates across the road to the west on Tract 5 and is one of the most well-known springs in the area for productivity during times of drought. This summer has been one of the driest in recent years and this spring has continued to flow across the road from Tract 5 to Tract 1, providing an invaluable water source.
The fences on this tract are a thing of beauty and would cost a fortune to replace. The north fence is 5-strand barbed wire rated mostly excellent with a stretch on the east side rated good, the west fence is 5-strand barbed wire rated very good, the south fence is 5-strand rated excellent while the west fence along the Interstate is woven wire rated excellent with the balance being 5-strand barbed wire rated good. Theres also a division fence that runs north-south across the entire parcel thats 5-strand rated excellent.
The grasses on this tract as well as the balance of this offering have received steadfast stewardship which is very evident, especially this year as its been extraordinarily dry. We tip our hat to the ownership and management for their uncommon efforts to take care of Kansas greatest natural resource! The Native grass community here is very diverse and healthy with an attractive mix of grasses and legumes. The dominant grasses are Big Bluestem, Indian and Switchgrass complemented by Little Bluestem, Sideoats Grama and multiple high-protein legumes. Again, this grass has consistently yielded 3 pounds per day gains in wet years and dry. Its a proven commodity!
