Tucumcari, NM 88401 - Quay County

This is a neat, clean, well-appointed and well-cared for, combination farm and livestock operation which will work well for irrigated hay production combined with livestock. The farm is irrigated from 112.3 acres of Arch Hurley Conservancy District Water Rights furnishing water for two almost new T&L center pivot sprinklers pressured by a diesel powered, combination booster pump and hydraulic pump to irrigate a 32 acre semi-circle and a 76 acre partial circle. The soil on the farm is a sandy/clay loam with approximately 40 acres of land being farmed dryland. There is approximately 107 acres of native grassland that is fenced with five strands of barbed wire and steel T post. Additional improvements on the property include the shop which is approximately 20 x 80 with a concrete floor, wired for 240 volt electricity and livestock handing facilities consisting of a set of welded pipe pens. Water is furnished to the headquarters and in the livestock pens from a community water system with cattle also watering from a large earthen dam (dirt tank in Texas). Demand seems to be extremely good for choice horse hay all across the Southwestern United States with this property being a prime supplier. Based upon historical water allotments in this water district, there are better irrigation possibilities in the future.
