Turon Camp CRP
The Turon Camp CRP boasts an incredible opportunity to hunt a variety of different species, camp with all the needed RV necessities and collect CRP income at an impressive per acre rate. Located in Reno County, KS and in the heart of Kansas' Whitetail unit 15, this property offers endless recreational enjoyment.
Land
The Turon Camp CRP is +/-113 acres of native grass dotted with a number of plum thickets, new growth elm trees and rye food plots. The property is surrounded on two sides by dense timber and large hardwood trees that help further the wonderful habitat for wildlife. Gentle elevations changes throughout the CRP grassland gather varied amounts of moisture and thus tend to grow different variations of native grasses, creating diversity. In wet years, the lowlands have even held shallow water wetlands that could be used to hunt waterfowl.
