Property Info

Description

Peoples Company is proud to present this opportunity to own 53.86 acres of versatile farm ground in Union County, Iowa. The property offers 30.96 row crop acres with a CSR2 rating of 50.4, with Shelby clay loam as the predominant soil type.

There are two active CRP contracts on the property. The first includes 13.69 acres enrolled, generating $3,468 annually ($253/acre), and the second includes 5.32 acres enrolled, generating $805 annually ($151/acre). Together, these contracts produce $4,273 in annual income.

With 30.96 acres in crop production and 19.01 acres enrolled in CRP, the farm boasts 49.97 income-producing acres, making it 93% productive, a rare find compared to many other farms in southern Iowa. The remaining non-income-producing acres include timber, grass, and a pond, offering the perfect setting for a new owner to maximize utility and recreational enjoyment, whether it’s enhancing habitat, improving aesthetics, or hanging a tree stand.

The farm offers paved road access all the way from Afton, allowing the new owner to avoid gravel when getting to the property. Multiple ideal building site locations overlook a scenic pond and take in the classic southern Iowa landscape. The south end of the farm borders 210th Street, providing flexibility and optionality when selecting a homesite.

Whether you're a farmer seeking a highly efficient, income-generating asset or a buyer looking to build your dream home in the countryside without the inconvenience of gravel roads, this property checks all the boxes. 

The farm is leased for the 2025 crop season. Contact the listing agent for more details.
