Midwest Land Group is proud to present a once-in-a-lifetime ranching/investment opportunity in Harrison County, Missouri. Located just 1 mile south of the Iowa border, these 711 total acres are as beautiful as they are profitable. There are two parcels that make up the total acreage: 53 acres, currently in row crop production, that sits approximately mile east of the main farm; and another 658 acres that encompasses the bulk of the property. The 658 acres have been enrolled in the Nature Conservancy Conservation Easement. This farm is a portion of the 32,000-acre Pawnee Landscape Conservation Area, which contains the largest unplowed deep soil prairie remnant remaining in the Central Tallgrass Prairie Ecoregion. The goal of this grasslands program is intended to preserve the property as a natural habitat and agricultural land for the benefits and habitat it provides for a host of area-dependent grassland wildlife. The rolling hills of this property provide stunning views for miles in all directions.
The main farm is broken down into two basic zones. A 167-acre tillable zone, and a 491-acre grassland zone. In the tillable zone, no-till farming practices can be utilized to produce an annual crop for the owner. The grassland zone can be used for grazing livestock, haying, hunting, fishing, and the enjoyment of wildlife. The current owner would be interested in leasing the farm back from a new owner for $100,000 per year if desired. There is a 5-acre improvement zone, within the 491-acre grassland zone, that runs along the north border of the farm. This zone can be used for improvements to the property such as: building a single-family home, barns, sheds, outbuildings, and other farm structures consistent with agricultural purposes. Cattle loading chutes and associated corrals can be built in the improvement zone. You can also construct cattle loading chutes and corrals on up to 2 acres of the grasslands property east of Highway U. If you need more grass for your livestock operation, the tillable zones can be seeded down to grass! There are 6 ponds on the farm, and most of them are connected to livestock tire waterers. It should be noted that the 53 acres east of the main farm are not encumbered by the conservation easement, so there are no restrictions on this part of the farm.
There is a tremendous amount of wildlife on this farm, especially in the brushy draws in the grassland areas and food plots can be established within it. This farm could easily be leased for hunting which could push the annual ROI to 3% or more. This is an exceptionally unique and beautiful farm, with significant income potential.
