Property Description: A very well managed pasture consisting of 287.3 acres with a newer and tight 4 wire barbed wire boundary fence as well as cross fencing is now available in Rush County, Kansas. Three nice sized ponds are located on the property with about 8 acres of surface water and one additional pond that will hold water when the dam is fixed. There is a water well in the middle of the property with new leathers, pipe and serviced gear head. A nice corral sits in the middle of the property to help catch, load, work cattle, and rotate pastures making handling convenient. The ponds hold a plethora of ducks during the winter migration/hunting season and several resident ducks nesting on the property. This ranch has some of the best dove hunting opportunities in the area with all the habitat needed with the water, trees, food, and grit. The dove habitat here is incredible! You can find all of the birds that people travel from all over the country to see and hunt here on this property. Ducks, geese, pheasants, quail, and doves all reside on or visit this property regularly. Whitetailed deer use the terrain of this property to conceal their movements to the ponds for water and the surrounding fields for food and cover. The native grasses provide excellent forage for the cattle and wildlife, and being able to rotationally graze the cattle tremendously helps keep this pasture in peak condition. Large cottonwood trees in the pasture provide shade and cover for the animals. The average yearly rainfall for this location is 25” per year. This property has convenient access just off of highway KS-96. Electricity is located nearby. Minerals are included (less than 1 Mile west of a very large horizontal oil well drill with heavy production). No current production or mineral leases on this property, and there are no current wind leases or production on the property as well.
