Description:
Take a look at this straight forward, no nonsense, highly productive farm located on the Hi-Line north of Glasgow, Montana. Of the 3,514 total acres, 1670 acres are irrigated making it one of the largest irrigated farms in the country! A producer with the crop history to back it up! Farm also includes 887 dryland cultivated acres, 193 acres of CRP, 300 acres of tame grass, and 444 acres of grazing. There are 3,034 deeded acres and 480 acres state lease, all contiguous with excellent access to all fields from county roads! 12 center pivots, each with their own wells, irrigate wheat, flax, and alfalfa. Cash crops of lentils and peas can also be grown.
High crop yields are achieved through a rotation of alfalfa to grain crops and specialty crops. Yields of 80 to 90 plus bushels per acre are to be expected as well as 6 ton plus alfalfa which for the last several years has been sold to clients in the Midwest demanding high quality hay. RFV tests are available on request.
No waiting to order water. With wells ranging from only 70 to 100 deep, ample water lies just below the surface waiting to be pumped on demand.
There’s ample grain storage with 158,000 bushels of total capacity including granaries & Quonsets, all with grain aeration packages. A large shop w/dual doors is big enough to accommodate semis and today’s equipment. Includes 40,000+ gallons of fuel storage, a 400 head feedlot with open faced sheds/windbreaks, excellent working alley, chute, & portable scale. Corral rails were actually built with Oak wood! Well watered pastures for a small yearling or cow calf herd round out the operation.
Over the last five years, over $750,000 dollars has been reinvested on improvements and updates with most of that amount being spent within the last 2 years alone!!! This included new pivots, wells, pump motors, turbine pumps, control panels, tower motors & gearboxes, updated sprinkler packages w/drop tubes and nozzles, safety circuits, and underground pipe manifold structures.
Includes two farmsteads with spacious, well kept homes & nice yards, each surrounded by mature trees & shelterbelts. $3,720,000
