Land Description: 

With grain prices reaching new all-time highs, coupled with the excellent income from a long-term wind energy lease, this property is precisely what an operator or investor is looking for. The total +/- 158.9 acre property consists of fertile cropland with class 2 & 3 soils, native and tame grass for haying, and two income-producing wind turbines. There are around 105 acres of cropland, +/- 75 acres of which are currently planted to winter wheat while the remaining cropland is sitting fallow. The +/- 43 acres of native grasses/waterways are an excellent candidate for haying, adding additional income for the property. The current farm agreement is currently structured as a ⅓-⅔ crop share between the landowner and farm tenant, meaning the landowner receives ⅓ of the farming proceeds. A long-term wind energy lease is currently in place through 2052, providing on average just under $14,000 of additional income each year. The wind energy lease, wind rights, and any wind royalties shall transfer to a Buyer at closing. Additionally, the mineral rights are believed to be intact and shall transfer to a Buyer at closing. With a great location, multiple streams of revenue, and hunting opportunities, the Wilson Wind & Farm Investment Tract provides many possibilities and options for long-term profits from wind, farm, and hunting leases for years to come.
