This farm has a lot to offer the outdoorsman! While walking the property, I listened to Bobwhite Quail whistling, pheasants crowing, turkeys hammering gobbles in the bottom, morning doves cooing, and greater prairie chicken booming in the distance. There is an ample amount of deer sign from the rut last fall, as well as fresh tracks. The farm is split by a county road, but don’t let that deter you from taking a look, as it sits off the beaten path. The south parcel consists of a mixture of CRP, wooded creek bottom, two established food plots and a cedar-dotted pasture. The creek bottom has great deer sign, and the east/west configuration sets up nicely for predominant north or south winds. The food plot on the north side of the creek is planted to winter wheat, and the plot on the hillside south of the creek is currently open. The area is known for trophy whitetail deer, and the timber is a magnet for bucks that call the surrounding open country home. The north parcel is primarily CRP, with several grassed waterways dissecting the middle of the field. There is a two-row cedar windbreak running east/west on the northern edge of the field. While the north 40 is mostly open, there is still ample deer sign with trails dissecting the field. A pocket of plum thickets and other brush in the northeast corner and eastern draw provides habitat for the upland game as well as a big game travel corridor deer use to access the adjacent cropland on their way to feed. There are 52 acres included in the CRP contract, consisting of 4 fields, one of which is a 1.5-acre food plot that is included in the contract in compliance with CRP rules. The ten-year contract was renewed in 2022 with an annual rental payment of $2470. If you are looking for a farm that provides multi-species hunting opportunities, this is just the ticket.
