310 acres in Jackson County, Arkansas

Fowl Play Farm and Hunt Club is a rice and soybean farm with excellent duck hunting, lodging, and many other improvements. The property is located in eastern Jackson County, Arkansas, and consists of 321.0 +/- contiguous acres along Bayou DeView. Positioned in the fertile Northeast Arkansas Delta, the property is just three miles west of Hickory Ridge, Arkansas, and offers above-average agricultural income and excellent duck hunting.

The farm is a fully-functioning agricultural operation with 81% in tillable farmland comprised of silty loam soil variations. The soil types provide a highly suitable medium for rice and soybean crops. The cropland is 100% irrigated by two electric wells, and water is efficiently delivered to crops via underground pipe and field risers. The majority of the land is level or has been formed to level grades, and excellent ditches and water control systems are in place to provide efficient drainage. A large enclosed shop with exterior covered equipment storage complements the agricultural operation for maintenance work, supplies, and equipment storage. The large shop also serves as an aircraft hanger with an expansive overhead door on the west side and a tall overhead door on the east side. Additionally, there is a 2,300 runway for ag-aviation and private aircraft use.

Historically the duck hunting on the farm has been outstanding, and deer and dove hunting is also available. Currently, duck hunting is conducted via two field pits; however, there are four ideal locations for new duck blind construction. There are 45.0 +/- acres in bottomland timber, which is located along Bayou DeView. Periodically this timber floods and can provide duck hunting when the conditions allow. Portions of the farm could be planted in duck foods, and crops left unharvested to enhance the duck habitat, and there is an ideal field that lends itself to establishing a dove field.

Complementing the farm and hunting outings is a 2,400 square-foot, rustic lodge structure with a beautiful property view. The lodge was built in 2005 and offers all utilities, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living area, a kitchen, a laundry room, and a gun and gear room. There is an upstairs loft, which provides an additional four beds for guests. The surrounding grounds of the lodge are expansive, with large, shady oak trees on the west side and a small shop and covered storage for ATVs, boats, supplies, and other storage on the east side. The land has excellent access from Arkansas Highway 42 via two private, all-weather roads, which are gated. The land also has a great interior road system allowing easy access throughout.

The investment-minded individual or group has multiple potential income streams from an annual farming cash rent or crop-share agreement with a local farmer. Other income may be derived from potentially leasing the lodge and hunting rights, the large shop and storage facility to a local farmer, or the airstrip and hanger facility for an ag-aviation operation.

Fowl Play Farm and Hunt Club is a rare opportunity for the farmland investor or waterfowl and conservation enthusiast to procure a high-grade, turn-key, legacy property. The property is offered for sale for $2,400,000.00 by Chuck Myers of Myers Cobb Realtors; qualified buyers should contact Chuck at 901-830-5836 regarding questions or schedule a property tour.
