Multi-Generational Farm Ready For Operation
Spring is around the corner, and this farm is priced to sell before next years crops are planted! This farm ground has been owned and operated by the same family for multiple generations, and it is ready to continue the deep roots of farming along the Arkansas River. Located along County Road 16 and US Hwy 50 stretches 505 acres (419 acres of tillable ground) and includes 792 shares of the Fort Lyon Canal Company ditch water. This is equivalent to 1.8 shares per acre, which is enough to produce high yields of corn, alfalfa, sorghum, milo, or wheat. All fields are flood irrigated with a combination of open dirt ditch, cement ditch, and gated pipe. Approximately 140 acres of established alfalfa. Fort Lyon Canal water comes into the ditch March 15th and leaves November 15th. In the 2023 farm year there were 25 (48 hour) runs.
This property also includes a 1,016 square foot farm house that would make a nice home for hired farm labor, or an onsite land owner home.
