, Lea, NM - Lea County

This good irrigated farm consisting of 3505.4 acres with some native grass has 2451 deeded acres, and 272.2 acres of state leased land in Lea County, New Mexico (the state lease is a grazing lease, but the land has development potential) and is contiguous with 782.2 deeded acres in Cochran County, Texas. There are 13 sprinkler irrigation systems with 18 wells on the New Mexico side and 4 sprinkler systems with 6 wells on the Texas side. Additional wells could likely be developed, but there has been ample water for excellent cotton and peanut production. The soils are deep sandy loams and are very productive. TX FM 769 that runs along the state line divides the farm and provides excellent all - weather access. The owner is and excellent operator that farms on a large scale. He would be available to continue to farm this land and would prefer to do so.
