Property Info

Description

Property Overview
Located in one of the most fertile and highly regarded farming areas of Morehouse Parish, Peoples Company is pleased to present this 460± acre farm to the market. Of the total acreage, approximately 378± acres are considered tillable, with an overall NCCPI rating of 83 on the tillable ground, reflecting strong production capability. 
The property is situated along Bayou Bartholomew and includes partial ownership of Horseshoe Lake located along the southern boundary of the farm. This combination provides both reliable water access and potential recreational upside.
 
Irrigation Information
Irrigation is supported by a re-lift system drawing from Bayou Bartholomew, along with three 8-inch groundwater wells, providing ample water supply throughout the growing season. In total, the farm is improved with three 8-inch wells and one 10-inch re-lift system, ensuring consistent and dependable irrigation.
 
Access
Access to the property is provided by two points. The first is from the south via Cotton Mouth Road, a public road that provides direct entry to the farm. The second is a private access easement extending from Jones Cut Off Road, allowing access from the southeast portion of the property. This access has historically been a primary route for both ownership and farming operations.
 
Lease and Operations
The farm is currently under a straight cash lease, set to expire on December 31, 2026. The existing tenant has maintained a corn and soybean rotation across the majority of the property, with portions of the southern tract occasionally utilized for row rice production. The soil composition across the farm is well-suited for both grain and fiber production, offering flexibility in cropping strategies.
