Mapped soils include substantial areas of Arrington silt loam and Egam silt loam. Both carry an NCCPI overall rating of 86 in the available soils report, reinforcing the agricultural character of the White River bottom ground. Although the farm is not currently irrigated, a future buyer may wish to investigate irrigation improvements. No representation is made regarding feasibility, permitting, water supply, or cost.

The field pattern consists of several large, contiguous blocks with paved access from Gap Road. Timbered margins and interior wooded corridors provide natural separation between field areas while adding wildlife cover and travel routes. Deer have been known to use the agricultural fields, giving the tract meaningful hunting potential alongside its farming use.

Beyond the farming operation, the south tract has the kind of recreational use that makes a property enjoyable well after the crop is harvested. A hunter can ease into the timbered corridors of an evening and watch for a whitetail moving toward the fields before dark. Outside of hunting season, the trail to the White River and the sandbar provide a place to fish, spend an afternoon by the water, or simply enjoy a stretch of river frontage that is increasingly hard to find.

The White River defines much of the farm's southern boundary. An existing trail allows vehicle access to the river, and a broad sandbar provides a usable area for bank fishing and river recreation. Mature timber along portions of the riverbank adds privacy, habitat and scenic appeal.

This offering is well suited to a buyer seeking a sizable agricultural tract with a strong land-to-cropland ratio, documented FSA acreage, productive mapped soils and an uncommon amount of White River frontage. Its location near Batesville, paved access, farming history, and recreational attributes create a holding that can be appreciated both for its current agricultural use and its long-term land value.
