Northern Missouri farms with exceptional hunting and a solid income are always in high demand. This 227 +/- acres, just north of Novinger, fits that classic mixed-use mold. What was historically a tillable and pasture farm is going through a big change as we speak. The current owner has been planning to transform the property into a recreational playground. A grazing lease has been terminated and the cattle have been removed from the property. This will allow the understory in the brushy & timbered areas to grow thick and provide excellent habitat & bedding cover for deer. It should be noted that the FSA aerial map does not give justice as to how thick the existing cover currently is. There are 32 +/- acres of tillable bottom ground which will command $150/acre in 2024. There are another 35 +/- acres of existing hay ground that lays very well and will be converted into tillable production this spring. Due to the expanded inputs and effort to break sod the first year, this hillground will bring $110/acre in cash rent in year one. Davis Creek runs through the property and a new crossing has been established to more easily navigate to the western part of the farm. There will be an additional 15 +/- acres that will be left in hay production which will provide another $900/year in revenue. Total income for 2024 is set at $9,550.

The story of the exceptional quality & quantity of deer on this farm is clearly told by the trail camera pictures. All of the pictures are from 2023 and no one has hunted the farm this season. The trails and deer sign on this place are pretty special. Barring a demise of natural causes, these deer will get another year older and bigger which bodes well for your hunting experience next season. It should also be noted that there are high numbers of turkeys here as well. With roost trees and turkey sign all along the creek, spring gobbler season should be amazing. There is good access to the farm from State Highway 149 on the northeast corner of the property and by Gasperi Road on the south. This farm also offers several excellent build sites. All utilities are available at Highway 149. You will be hard-pressed to find another comparable farm at this price point.
