These two unique tracts within a stone’s throw of one another in the Greene County bottoms present distinct opportunities. The farms will begin as a Sealed Bid format with bids due Monday, March 23. Bidders have the option to bid on either or both tracts. The three highest bidders for each tract will have the opportunity to raise their bids at a private live auction.
Tract 1: Here’s your chance to own a sizeable chunk of highly-productive Greene County river bottom acreage. This 336.5 acre farm is predominantly tillable with 287.8 acres farmed according to FSA figures. The Northern 85 acres and the East 65 acres of the “Big Field” were pattern tiled with 4 inch laterals in 2011. A well-known producer, this farm churns out 215/68 averages. The level of diligence the current operator has taken to care for this farm is evident. The cash rent lease runs through the 2026 growing season and will convey to the buyer. Don’t sleep on the non-tillable acreage on this tract as the 35.0 acres of wooded field edge give plenty of chances for chasing that big buck.
Tract 2: This 57.38 acre mixed-use tract is a great blend of income and recreation. Tract 2 is 40% income-producing farmland with 22.77 FSA tillable acres. The farmland has a strong Productivity Index Rating of 136.3. The same level of immaculate care as Tract 1 has been taken on this property by the same operator. Similarly, the cash rent lease runs through the 2026 growing season and will convey to the buyer. The wooded bluffs allow for recreational enjoyment. Whether hiking through the beautiful scenery or scoping that trophy buck, there is a lot to offer. Tract 2 is an ideal size for first-time land buyers, or anyone looking to add a unique parcel to their acreage portfolio.
Sealed Bid Process: Sealed bids are due by 12:00 Noon CST on Monday, March 23. Bidders have the option to bid on either or both tracts. Bids must be submitted on the official bid sheet.

The three highest bidders for each tract will have the opportunity to raise their bids at a private live auction on Thursday, March 26 at 10:00AM (absentee bidding available upon request, location TBD). The highest sealed bid per tract will be the opening bid for the live portion of the auction. The seller retains the right to reject any and all bids.
