A spectacular high Class A 339.78± acre two-tract “Buyer’s Choice” farmland auction in Northeast Morgan County, Illinois.
Farms of this magnitude and top-tier quality are rarely available on the open market in West Central Illinois. These two tracts truly have it ALL – soil quality, location, access, percentage of tillable acreage, drainage options, and lucrative non-crop income.
Roll in and farm as far as the eye can see on 339.78± high Class A tillable acres. The overall acreage is 99.7% tillable with Tracts 1 and 2 competing for which can boast the highest Productivity Index Rating (142.6 and 143.1 respectively). A known producer, the acreage is currently farmed as one with 5-year yield averages on the total acreage of 231 bu/ac corn and 71 bu/ac beans. A large 24-inch main runs West to East and allows for a wide variety of future tile projects to further enhance production and future value. Tile agreement sets a 157 acre limit across both tracts that may be drained into the main. If the remarkable cropping value wasn’t enough to pique your interest, the farm is also enrolled in the APEX Wind Energy program. The farm was not used for turbines or cabling, but will nonetheless collect an annual payment throughout the life of the project. Estimated 2022 wind energy payment is $56 per acre.
Property is selling as “Buyer’s Choice.” The successful bidder will have the option to choose Tract 1, Tract 2, or both. If the first successful bidder selects only one of the two tracts, bidding will resume for the remaining tract. In-person bidding. Contact us to make arrangements for phone bidding, if required.
