Agriculture

The Cedar Canyon ranch is a year-round grazing ranch with a mild climate. Numerous native vegetation can be found throughout the property. The deeded land is zoned General Rural in the Arizona county of Mohave. There are several center pivot sights within the boundary of the grazing lease. The current owners have worked with private owners of the pivots for access to grazing and would encourage any prospective buyers to negotiate the continued use or purchase some of those pivot areas. The current owners are working with Bureau of Land Management to enact extensive landscaping projects in the valley where the ranch is located which will greatly enhance the entire valley.

Water/Mineral Rights & Natural Resources

There is a long list of Wells and short descriptions that can be supplied to prospective buyers and those locations are marked on the map with the best efforts for accuracy, but we encourage buyers to do their own investigation. There are several parcels the current owners use for water they don’t own. While it is the Sellers belief that historical use would not be hampered, any Buyer should pursue purchase of those wells or administer alternatives.

General Operations

The ranch can be a turnkey operation with approximately 150 Angus cow/calf cattle and approximately 50 Corrientes cow/calf cattle. The owners shall retain and remove approximately 50 cows and several bulls. The Rafter S Cattle Company is an operating direct-to-public sales company with all the support infrastructure to continue those exact operations for whole, halves and quarter cows, as well as FDA inspected packaged beef. Rafter S Cattle company averages about 5 beef processes per month, and they have a Food Bank Government contract that can be expanded if you can increase production.

History

This ranch can be paired with the Diamond Bar & Music Mountain ranch to create a ranch with a carrying capacity of well over 1,000 head. Buyers should be aware that they will need to negotiate separately with the owners of that ranch for purchase. The Cedar Canyon Ranch utilizes the Middle Water Allotment to enhance their operation. While not required, the current owners would encourage buyers to seek purchase of that property. While the owners can’t guarantee the successful sale of that allotment, they do believe they could be a conduit to a successful purchase. Please speak to the listing broker for more information.

The Seller wants prospective buyers know that this ranch has been in operation for well over 100 years and the current owners will not be suppling any disclosures for the ranch. Buyers should rely on their own inspections and investigations. Additionally, the Owners will not order or provide any septic inspection or agree to any alteration. While an inspection is required in the state of Arizona to transfer property, that action should be performed by any perspective purchaser.

While most furniture and equipment will stay with the property the Sellers reserve the right to remove any personal items and any things not specifically listed on an exclusion list.
