Property Info
Description
The farm has been deemed prior converted and has gentle rolling slopes that allow water to navigate off of the property and also contains substantial 5", 12", or 15" pattern tiling on the west two-thirds of the farm (see attached Tile Map). The farm is leased for the 2024 cropping season.
The balance of the FSA cropland acres includes a total of 9.40 NHEL acres enrolled in four CRP (Conservation Reserve Program) contracts paying $2,599 annually, which include 2.30 acres of CP21 (Filter Strips) expiring in 2028 with an annual payment of $545 ($237/acre), 1.20 acres of CP8A (Grassed Waterway) expiring in 2029 with an annual payment of $284 ($237/acre) and 4.10 acres of CP8A (Grassed Waterway) expiring in 2031 with an annual payment of $1,230 ($300/acre), and 1.80 acres of CP15A (Contour Grass Strips) expiring in 2032 with an annual payment of $540 ($300/acre; see attached CRP Map).
