Auction Note

This diverse farm features 558 +/- acres of cropland and 442 +/- acres of highly productive pasture. The cropland was enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) for 30 years.  The pastureland features multiple water sources and abundant native grasses. What’s more, the valleys and coulees provide ideal habitat for wildlife.

The established shelterbelts and decades of soil conservation practices make the cropland ideal for organic and modern farming practices. Soil types include Linton-Sutley Silt Loams, Bryant Silt Loams, and Reeder-Farnuf Loams—ideal for small grains including wheat, barley, flax, durum, oats, sunflowers, canola and more.
