TOPOGRAPHY: The ranch is located S.E. of Farris, OK within 2 miles of Muddy Boggy Creek. It has moderate small rolling hills, spring fed, that are made up of a rich sandy loam. All of the ranch is cleared except the spring and small stream bottoms which are lined with trees to impede erosion.
IMPROVEMENTS: The ranch is divided into 6 grazing units that range in size from 20 acres to 80 acres and is set up for rotational grazing year round. The predominate grass in the grazing pastures and the meadow is Bermuda grass. The meadow area that is reserved for hay is fed by a 100 year old spring and has never been grazed. This meadow has produced up to 200 round bales of hay even in recent years which has been extremely dry. It has maintained up to 125 pairs of beef cattle using the pasture rotation per year, but in the last 2 years it has supported 90 cow/calf pairs year around. All of the grazing units have their own ponds for livestock watering and have never been dry. All hay is produced from the meadow for the running capacity of the ranch. A metal barn is with 14 ft. walls and measuring approximately 30/40 feet is located adjacent to the livestock working area in the NW corner of Section 8.Adjacent and east of the barn is a hay storage area, adjacent to the county road, that can store 300 round bales of hay. The livestock working pens are located south and west of the barn and has 2 sorting pens that support the steel pipe corrals that contains 3 sort pens and 2 alleys for loading cattle or leading to working chutes that are in good working shape. The steel pens have concreted drill stem post and 1 sucker rod cross pieces. This livestock working facility is in excellent condition and ready to use on a daily basis. This ranch is presently in working use and has excellent fencing throughout with boisdarc brace post and corners with steel T post and 5 barbed wire fencing dominating the ranch. The weaning pen immediately adjacent to the working facilities has net wire and 2 barbed wire fencing for weaning calves.

CAPACITY: Grazing capacity for this ranch has been up to 125 cow/calf units for a 365 day rotation. It is currently maintaining 90 cow/calf units.
