Forest City MO Real Estate & Land for Sale

Hard to find small tract of MO River Bottomland ripe for a new farmer, waterfowl development, or investors looking to diversify their portfolio!!! This property consists of 37+/- acres TBD by survey. Approximately 30 of which are highly tillable Class II soils consisting of Blencoe Silty Clay making this farm 81% tillable. This is premier Missouri River bottom ground with 0-2% slopes and has recently been ditched to ensure proper drainage. 2023 Corn crop produced 250 b/u and has a strong yield year over year. There are approximately 7 acres of lower lying wooded acres that would support intentional flooding for waterfowl hunting. The current owner is interested in cash renting the farming rights from a new owner at a rate of $300 per tillable acre for an annual return of $9,000 on the crop rights. The location of this farm is centered in one of the heaviest waterfowl flyways in NW Missouri. Sitting directly between Loess Bluffs Wildlife Refuge (formerly Squaw Creek) and Bob Brown Conservation Area, this property could easily be developed into a world class waterfowl property since electrical access is nearby. This property sits off of any public roads so it would provide the needed seclusion to make it a top-notch waterfowl property. On years when corn is in the crop rotation, thousands of ducks and geese use this specific field year in and year out for feeding. Even without additional development this property can and will offer plenty of waterfowl hunting opportunities. There is potential for additional revenue from hunting. Many other landowners lease their dry fields to outfitters for hunting in the fall and spring. If developed, many places with flooded corn and blinds bring anywhere from $10,000 to $15,000 and sometime more for waterfowl leases in this area which would provide an even greater ROI. Additional acreage available. Check other 40+/-ac listing.
