Great Western Missouri Hunting Farm with Tillable Income
Northwest Vernon County is characterized primarily by tillable farms and open pasture. When you combine the rich prairie soils with some creeks and timber for cover, the results can be fantastic in terms of habitat for whitetails and turkeys. Such is the case with this 60 acre parcel located on 800 Rd east of Richards, MO. The ratio of timber and crop, along with the arrangement of the cover and the way the creeks are interspersed throughout the property results in a magical mix perfect for recreation, all the while supplying some income to the owner. Approximately 28 acres grow a variety of hardwoods, with pecan common throughout most of the wooded portion. Other hardwoods include pin oak, hackberry, cherry, ash, and elm, with a few walnuts as well. In addition, you’ll find pockets of hedge providing the dense cover that’s so attractive for bedding and fawning habitat.
Barden and Parso...
Barden and Parsons silt loams are well known in the area for their productivity, and these soils make up nearly all of the 22 acres (m/l) of cropland found on the farm. Three fields of 16.3, 4.6, and 1.7 acres offer income opportunity from corn and soybean production, as well as the possibility of further enhancement of the farm’s habitat with some CRP field borders or warm season grass conversions. These features, along with the fact that this tract represents the best habitat in a several mile radius, provide just the thing the local whitetails are looking for, as evidenced by the abundant trails, rubs, browse and scat. I’ve rarely seen the abundance of deer sign that I found while exploring this property - it’s simply remarkable.
Buyers in the market for a build site for a new country home will also love it, as there are several locations suitable for siting a home, with utilities close at hand and easy blacktop access. These types of farms don’t come along very often, so if you’ve been looking give me a call at 417-321-5427. You won’t come away disappointed!
