Parcel 1:
Acres: 160 +/-
Legal: NW 34-134-104
Crop Acres: 157.21 +/-
Parcel 1 lays particularly flat with a strong Soil Productivity Index (SPI) of 80.4. Currently this parcel is used for alfalfa production, and could continue to produce top quality, high yielding hay crops, or it could also be converted back into small grain/row crop production with ease.
Parcel 2:
Acres: 160 +/-
Legal: SW 34-134-104
Crop Acres: 159.2 +/-
Parcel 2 has been developed into an extraordinary cell block grazing system. Parcel 2 has Southwest Rural water supplying the central livestock tank that supplements the multi cell pastures. Each pasture has electric perimeter fence and offers an angled entrance to each pasture making it easy to rotate livestock from cell to cell with minimal effort. Additionally, this parcel has an SPI of 62 offering tremendous productivity for the pastures but could also be reintroduced in to crop production rather easily.
Parcel 3:
Acres: 240 +/-
Legal: NW & NSW 3-133-104
Crop Acres: 163.94 +/-
Pasture Acres: 68.61 +/-
Parcel 3 implements a similar cell block grazing system of that of Parcel 2, yet on a larger scale. Originally this 240 +/- acre parcel had over 160 +/- acres of cropland, however currently 100% of its area is utilized for highly productive cell grazing. Parcel 3 has two central water systems supplied by Southwest Rural water. Parcel 3 also has good soil productivity which has been ideal for grass production and recovery under its current management system.
