Agriculture

The current owners have traditionally used the property as summer grazing for cattle, comfortably running up to 150 pair from June through October. Hay can be produced if so desired, but it has not been used in that manner for several years. Great lengths have been taken to ensure that the property is sustainable year after year. Three pastures allow the ability to graze separately during their optimized periods, or to sort and hold for shipping.

Irrigation is through a well-maintained Valley 7 tower pivot. Operation is efficient and the current owners will be happy to give anyone a hand in learning the ins and outs.
