MO-210 , Orrick, MO 64077(Ray County)

Midwest Land Group is honored to represent the sale of the historic Pigg Family Farm! A highly productive 297 acre farm located two miles west of Orrick in Ray County, Missouri on the Missouri River bottoms along blacktop Hwy 210. Farms of this caliber and in this location are rarely trade hands and more rarely are offered to the general public. The farm contains 288.1 FSA tillable acres that lay on the north and south side of the highway. Excellent Silt Loam and Silty Clay Loam Soils cover the entire farm with 267.94 acres in Class II; 20.16 in Class III and with a National Commodity Crop Productivity Index (NCCPI) weighted average of 55! This farm lays incredibly well with long runs and the largest field totaling to 207.1 acres in the vast bottoms! The farm has had extensive management and fertilization with existing tenant and local landowner operating the farm over the last twenty years. The farm is protected by the Egypt Levee District. The farm has been improved with drainage pathways on the perimeters for any surface water build up. The existing farmer has taken excellent care of the farm and it has shown through the yield history. The 2017 average corn yield was 229 bsh/ac and soybean was 52 bsh/ac.

The Pigg Family Homestead was established in the mid 1870’s and was a staging landmark for the hundreds of steamboats delivering supplies to the western frontier battling miles up the mighty Missouri River which ran directly behind the home. In the 1940’s the Egypt Levee was put into place, changing course of the Missouri River, and the Pigg family was given the opportunity to acquire the remaining portion of what is their farm today with no longer an existing home. The family’s well respected name is locally recognized by the Department of Conservation’s area known as Pigg’s Landing.

The farm is easily accessible laying on the north and south side of blacktop Highway 210. This farm will attract several hunting lease options to add to the existing return on investment. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Land adjoins the southwestern portion of the farm which allows for regulated hunting. A farm of this capacity is a perfect fit for the full time producer or investor seeking a solid return on investment and security of owning a top tier farm in the Midwest.
