Description

Palo Alto County, Iowa Farmland Available! Peoples Company is pleased to offer 113.78 gross acres m/l of high-quality Palo Alto County farmland located approximately five miles west of Graettinger, Iowa, in Section 9 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 110.84 FSA cropland acres classified as NHEL (Non-Highly Erodible Land). The tillable acres carry an impressive CSR2 soil rating of 87.6, exceeding the Palo Alto County, Iowa average CSR2 soil rating of 77. Primary soil types include high-quality Nicollet clay loam, Clarion 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 within Drainage District 89 and lies at the very top of the district. Please see the 'Drainage Map' attachment for more information. No county tile is found on the farm, but private tile lines have been installed. Contact the Listing Agents for more details.

Access to the farm is provided from the east off paved 370th Avenue / County Highway N26, allowing for convenient transportation of grain, equipment, and farm inputs. 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.
