Description

Webster County, Iowa Online Only Farmland Auction - Mark your calendars for Wednesday, June 24th, 2026! Peoples Company is pleased to represent the beneficiaries of the Mary Ramona Lee Revocable Trust in the sale of their farm located southeast of Fort Dodge, Iowa, and southwest of Duncombe, Iowa. The farm is a Century Farm, having been a family heirloom since the 1800s, and, as long-tenured holding is traditional with farmland ownership, this farm might not be available to the open market for another 100 years. Highly tillable farmland tracts of this size make for a great opportunity for the beginning farmer, an investor looking to diversify their portfolio, or an existing farm operation looking to add a more affordable tract compared to larger farm offerings.

This nearly 100% tillable farm consists of 64.52 gross acres m/l with 62.97 FSA cropland acres. The average CSR2 soil rating for the tillable acres is 86.3, exceeding the Webster County, Iowa average CSR2 soil rating of 75.1. Primary soil types include highly productive Webster clay loam, Nicollet clay loam, and Clarion loam. The farm is leased for the 2026 growing season under a Cash Rent Lease with a Flex Lease provision that allows for a Bonus Rent payment to be made dependent upon commodity prices throughout the year. The Buyer/Winning Bidder will receive the second half of the cash rent payment and any bonus payment owed for the 2026 farm year on November 1, 2026. Contact the listing agents for the farm lease details.

According to the Webster County assessor, private drainage tile is located in the southern portion of the farm, and the tract lies within two drainage districts, Drainage District 370 and Drainage District 151. The farm lies at the top of Drainage District 151 and in the middle of Drainage District 370. There are three tile intakes in the northern half of the farm, indicating that additional tile may be present. See the attached 'Tile Map' for additional information and approximate locations.

The field lies 2.5 miles south of U.S. Highway 20, offering quick access to local grain markets, including the Cargill Ethanol Plant just west of Fort Dodge, and other marketing options near Otho, Webster City, and Kamrar, Iowa. Don't miss this chance to buy a productive piece of Webster County, Iowa farmland!

This tract will be offered through an ONLINE ONLY auction. Bidding is currently LIVE and will remain open until Wednesday, June 24th, 2026, at 4:00 PM Central Time Zone (CDT). If you are unable to bid online, accommodations can be made to participate in the auction by contacting the listing agent.
