Description

Dallas County, Iowa Land Auction – Mark your calendar for Wednesday, August 25th, 2021 at 10:00 AM! Peoples Company is pleased to be representing the heirs of the Jacob C. Knapp Trust in the sale of 240 total acres m/l located just east of Panora, Iowa and just one mile north of Iowa Hwy 44. The combination of high-quality Dallas County farmland and decades of ownership by the Knapp Family makes for a rare opportunity to purchase land in a tightly held area.

The 240 acres m/l will be sold as three individual tracts through the “Buyer’s Choice” Auction Method. Tract sizes will include 40 Acres (Tract 1), 40 Acres (Tract 2), and 160 Acres (Tract 3) and include a total of 225.50 FSA cropland acres with top producing soil types of Clarion Loam, Nicollet Loam, and Canisteo clay loam. All farmland acres are classified as NHEL or Non-Highly Erodible Farmland and won’t require a conservation plan. The farms have been operated by a reputable local farm tenant and would make for a great add-on to an existing farming operation or a smart investment for the Buyer looking to diversify their portfolio. The smaller tract sizes would also cater to a beginning farmer or a more affordable land purchase.  

There are several grain marketing options located nearby including the POET ethanol plant in Menlo and several competing grain elevators. The farm lease will be terminated and farming rights available to the Buyer for the 2022 farm year. Dallas County Drainage Ditch #4 flows through tracts 1 and 3 and allows drainage tile to outlet to “daylight”.
