Irrigated Farm & Wetlands: Harvey County, KS
This exceptional 140 +/- acre property on the Harvey/Reno County line offers the perfect blend of high-quality farm ground and unparalleled recreational opportunities. The property features approximately 82 acres of center pivot irrigated farmland, dryland farm ground on the corners, and wetlands. This wetland area, complete with a pit blind, is a prime location for waterfowl hunting. In addition to duck hunting, the property provides outstanding pheasant hunting and excellent opportunities to harvest mature whitetail bucks, making it a hunter’s paradise. The land is equipped with a Valley irrigation system powered by a diesel motor, and water right #44110 is permitted at 133 AF of water with an 800 GPM flow rate.
In the heart of the Central Flyway, this property sits in an area that thousands of ducks and geese visit every fall and winter. With the Arkansas River to the south and numerous sand pits, lakes, and ponds nearby, this is an exceptional waterfowl area for Mallards, Pintail, Lesser Canada geese, White-fronted geese, and Snow geese. The 21-acre wetland is covered in moist soil plant species, which ducks love eating and loafing in. This wetland is enrolled in the Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP), and the easement runs with the land in perpetuity. When planted to corn, this farm has dry field hunting opportunities for ducks and geese as well. Additionally, this place offers outstanding upland bird hunting. During the first tour of this farm, four pheasants were flushed 10 steps away from the pickup. When you see this place in person, you will know why the pheasants love it so much. Cedar thickets, waist-high grass, food, and water. Not much more a bird needs! This habitat also attracts whitetail deer, and this area brings a good opportunity to harvest a mature buck. Heavily traveled trails and bedding areas have been observed. There would be great access from the north and west roads to get to a blind.
The property’s farm ground is currently under a 1/3, 2/3 crop share lease with a trusted farmer who has taken excellent care of the land, practicing no-till farming and planting cover crops in the past. The farm’s crop rotation includes corn and soybeans on the irrigated land, with dryland wheat and soybeans. The farm has experienced impressive yields, with the best year for beans reaching 85 bushels (averaging 50-60 bushels) and corn reaching 231 bushels in its best year (averaging 180-220 bushels). The lease ends on December 31, 2032, and the new owner will inherit the farm’s management.
While the seller will retain hunting rights for two people for the owner's lifetime, the owner is more than willing to allow the new owner to enjoy hunting on the property. Opportunities to own a property like thiscombining productive farmland with prime hunting groundsdon’t come around often. If you’re looking for a farm that offers a solid investment and exceptional recreational benefits, this is the place for you.
