Tract 1: 138.05 surveyed acres m/l with 135.11 FSA tillable acres carrying a CSR2 of 86.6. This large, open field can accommodate larger equipment and makes for efficient farming.

The soil types on this farm are some of the best in Iowa, including Clarion loam, Nicollet clay loam, and Webster clay loam. Farmland acres are designated as NHEL (Non-Highly Erodible Land) and do not include a conservation plan.
These tracts are located in a very prominent agricultural area and have access to a variety of grain marketing options including grain elevators, livestock feed mills, and ethanol plants by way of Highway 4, Co Hwy D36, and US Hwy 20. Farming rights will be available for the upcoming 2024 crop season. The property is located in Section 32 of Center Township in Calhoun County, Iowa.
The property is located next to a State of Iowa Correctional Facility. For security purposes, any interested parties should contact the Listing Agent for permission, before entering the properties.
