293 +/- Verdigris River Bottom Acres in Montgomery County, Ks

Description

Mossy Oak Properties is proud to offer the 293 +/- acre tract as an ONLINE AND LIVE Auction. It is located in Northern Montgomery County, Ks near the junction of Highway 400 and Highway 75. A portion of the property is located on the South side of Highway 400 and the rest is on the North. All of the property lies to the East of Highway 75. It is not often that a farm of this quality hits the open market! It offers high quality soils for farming and a mix of waterfowl and whitetail deer hunting.

This farm is a premium, quality farm for raising crops. Large fields and good soil provide the perfect environment for growing a variety of crops. The farm is well maintained and not chopped into a bunch of fields. The majority of it is ideal for planting and harvesting. This is a great place to start your farm or expand your existing operation. The farm is currently planted to beans and there is a written crop share agreement with the current tenant. The tenant would be happy to continue this agreement with a new owner. The new owner can take possession of the land after the harvest of the beans. The proceeds of this harvest will remain with the current tenant and seller. Crop income history and FSA records can be provided to pre-approved buyers. In addition there is a 60x50 storage building located on the Northern side of the property.

There is an absolute wilderness lying East of the Verdigris River and this area makes deer as big as anywhere in the country. The farm itself is more conducive to making money than it is whitetail hunting in its current condition. It does make for an ideal investment with a little bit of deer hunting. Recoup a very nice return on your investment and hunt the edges of the Verdigris River. Some of the smaller fields have serious food plot potential and very large mature timber around them and lining the banks of the river. One unique point on this farm a spot in the river that has a place for wildlife to cross. The Verdigris is a fast moving river with high banks and large pools of water for the most part. The narrow point on this farm gives a rare spot for the deer to pass from one side of the river to the other. Deer are a slave to food for most of the year and this farm has an abundance of it!

The Verdigris River creates the boundary along a portion of the farm on the South side of Highway 400. The river pinches down tight and creates a riffle in one spot on the property boundary. With large amounts of waterfowl using the nearby Elk City Lake, this spot is an impressive location for habitat development. The topography of the land is very flat which is ideal for the construction of marshes. The expansive flat field makes it easier to cover more acreage with less water when flooding for waterfowl hunts. The soil is made up of Osage Silty Clay and it has a 0 to 1% slope. If marshes are constructed, this soil is conducive for holding water. These fields already get impressive numbers of birds feeding in the fields without doing any work to improve the environment.  Later in the winter the cold weather will freeze many of the pot holes (ponds) in the area. The ducks are then forced to find open water on either the river or the lakes. This congregates the birds into large numbers, and when they fly out to fields, they do it by the masses. The dam on the river near Neodesha and the Elk City Lake are less than 9 miles from this farm.
