Kansas Farmland Auction
Kansas Farmland Auction
Online bidding begins March 15 and runs through March 21 for more than 6,000 acres of Northern Kansas farmland. The Decatur County land, offered in seven, almost entirely contiguous tracts, includes 231 pivot-irrigated acres, 2,120 dryland acres, and 3,701 grass acres.
Two buildings on the property are outfitted for machinery or product storage.
AgWest Land Brokers is handling the online auction of the productive cropland farm and cattle ranch, which also has potential as a sports or hunting property.
The property’s unnamed seller “has worked over 40 years to put this outstanding farm and ranch together,” said Jeff Moon, the AgWest Land broker overseeing the auction.
The land lies close to Highway 83 very near the Kansas-Nebraska border. All mineral rights owned by the seller, if any, will convey to the buyer(s).
Interest Expected to Be High
Rarely does a farm of this size come to market at public auction. As a result, interest in the property has been strong.
Moon said he’s already received calls about the property from local landowners as well as prospective buyers from across the US.
“We anticipate a lot of interest for this property because of the quality of non-irrigated cropland the farm offers and the large tracts of hardland grass that are available to buy at auction,” Moon added.
Productive Ag Potential
The income-producing farm offers large pastures with ample water sources, making it an ideal option for cattle production. The property also includes both irrigated and non-irrigated cropland that has been used to grow wheat, milo, and corn, Moon said.
Attractive Wildlife Habitat
Featuring creek frontage along Beaver Creek, the land is an attractive habitat for mule deer, whitetail deer, upland birds, and turkey. “It’s an outstanding opportunity for outdoor enthusiasts looking for a great hunting property,” Moon said.
