Description
This large farm is remarkable, with a history of attention to detail in the tillable acres and forest resources. Bob Petrizelka from Geode Forestry has been professionally managing the timber on this farm since 1989, with select harvest, crop tree release, thinning, and tree planting consistently implemented for holistic timber stand improvement. You won't encounter many properties that come up for sale with this level of care for the land.
109.61 acres in the Conservation Reserve Program pay $19,407/year. Approximately 50 acres are in a corn and soybean row crop rotation. Farm tenants have been served termination, and the farmland is free and clear for the 2023 planting season. This means that you have the flexibility to choose farming practices for the future after this fall harvest. The same tenant has been farming this land for many years.
The farm has been leased to a reputable outfitter for nearly the last two decades, and they’ve confirmed that there have been many mature bucks taken, ranging from 170 to over 200 inches. This comes as no surprise because it's located in a prime neighborhood with well over 3,000 acres of land under trophy whitetail management.
There is no doubt that this property has what it takes to be world-class archery and late-season farm, and it will continue to produce giant whitetails as the new owner creates their legacy! The layout is ideal with the large secluded fields, numerous bays, huge timbered areas that can be left as sanctuaries, and access from the east and west.
In addition to being a great hunting farm, this property is extremely scenic and has multiple building sites that would be perfect for a cabin or your dream home! The beautiful rock bottom creek (Rock Creek) flows through the majority of the north end of the property. This is one of the prettiest creeks in southern Iowa and provides a year-round water source for wildlife!
