Description

Palo Alto County, Iowa Farmland Available! Peoples Company is pleased to offer 161.03 gross acres m/l of high-quality Palo Alto County farmland located approximately five miles west of Graettinger, Iowa, in Section 10 of Lost Island Township. This productive tract offers a strong combination of proven soils, drainage improvements, and a desirable location in one of Palo Alto County's most well-regarded farming areas.

The farm includes 149.72 FSA cropland acres classified as NHEL (Non-Highly Erodible Land). The tillable acres carry an impressive CSR2 soil rating of 84.6, including high producing soil types of Clarion loam, Nicollet clay loam, and Webster clay loam. The farm's favorable topography promotes strong natural drainage, carrying water off the property without taking on runoff from neighboring fields. The farm falls just outside and to the north of Drainage District 89 and just outside and to the west of Drainage District 147. Please see the 'Drainage Map' attachment for more information. No county tile is found on the farm, but private tile has been installed. Contact the Listing Agents for more details.

Also included within the sale of this farm is an approximately 6-acre wooded acreage site that includes a 48' x 72' steel utility shed in good condition.

Access to the farm is provided from the west off paved 370th Avenue / County Highway N26, from the east off 375th Avenue, and also through a private field road labeled as 290th Street, which bisects the farm into a north and south half. Local grain markets are located nearby with Pro Cooperatives in Wallingford and Terril, and a POET Bioprocessing Plant in Emmetsburg.

The property is leased for the 2026 growing season. The current farm lease has been terminated, and the farm will be available for the 2027 growing season.

Whether you are an investor seeking a dependable land asset, a buyer completing a 1031 exchange, or a producer looking to expand your operation, this tract presents an excellent opportunity to acquire productive farmland with established improvements in a sought-after Palo Alto County location.
