Midwest Land Group is proud to present this incredible Marion County, Iowa combination farm. If you’ve been searching for a hunting property with high-quality, income-producing ground, you’ll want to take a close look at this farm.

Sitting just 4 miles south of Knoxville and 37 miles from Des Moines, this farm is conveniently located for those wanting a hunting/recreational getaway within reasonable driving distance from the city. The diversity on this 356 +/- acre farm is incredible. With roughly 133 acres of timber, 135 FSA tillable acres with a 67 CSR2 average, 82.43 acres of CRP, multiple food plots, 2 ponds, and a creek, this property has all the ingredients needed in a top-end hunting farm. The timber consists of hardwoods, cedar thickets, maples, and brushy draws, providing year-round browse and cover for whitetails. The deer sign on this farm speaks for itself with rubs, scrapes, and beaten-down trails everywhere you look. While touring the farm, 12 shed antlers were picked up in a relatively short period of time (see photos). Turkey sign was also abundant and large groups were heard and spotted throughout the property. The English Creek runs through the middle of the property, creating a major travel corridor between large crop fields. The amount of edge and pockets on this farm provide numerous options for food plots, blinds, and tree stand locations. The property also sets up well for a number of future projects that could be implemented including additional CRP acres or tree plantings.

There are 3 box blinds included in the sale of the property. The established CRP provides phenomenal habitat plus $18,398 of annual income. The farm has 136 FSA tillable acres, with 14 of those acres currently being utilized as food plots. The 122 tillable acres are rented at $250/acre, which equals $30,500/year. The total annual income on the farm is $48,898. This level of income on a hunting farm of this caliber is hard to come by. As if the habitat, access, layout, and hunting potential weren’t enough, this farm also has a build site on the southeast corner for a home or cabin. Power and water are located along the road.

In order to appreciate everything this farm has to offer, you need to see it for yourself. To schedule your private tour or for more information, please call Korey O’Day at (515) 519-5779. Showing is by appointment only with advanced notice.
