Description
**Updated Trail Camera Photos**
Tract 1 consists of 71.56 acres m/l containing 48.06 FSA cropland acres carrying a CSR2 rating of 57.6 and includes a conservation plan. The primary soil types include the very deep, moderately drained soils of Sharpsburg silty clay loam and Bauer silt loam, known for their income-producing characteristics. The balance of the property includes blocks of timber on the northeast and southwest corner of the property. With Hawk Run Creek located on the northeast corner of the farm, the whitetails on this farm naturally move from the east to the west. This works extremely well because it is situated between the tillable acres and their main bedding areas to the south. This hearty block of timber combined with the small secluded tillable acres in the northeast corner of the tract would pull deer from the north during shooting hours. Multiple areas within the field could be developed into food plots that would hold whitetails for an ideal ambush spot for the tactful bowhunter or gun hunter. This combination farmland tract is located within the southwest quarter of Section 7 in Knoxville Township, Marion County, Iowa.
