With approximately 82% of the total property certified as irrigated, this farm offers the scale and infrastructure required for an efficient, high-capacity farming operation. Electric power enables streamlined irrigation management and potential operational advantages over fuel-powered pumping systems.

Productive Growing Region and Strong End-User Demand

The Wallace area is well suited for irrigated crop production. Southwestern Lincoln County’s semi-arid climate, warm growing-season temperatures, abundant sunlight, and relatively low humidity—combined with dependable irrigation—create favorable growing conditions for corn, soybeans, alfalfa, grain sorghum, silage, and other forage and feed crops.

Irrigation allows an operator to manage moisture during critical stages of crop development, reducing dependence on seasonal rainfall and helping provide more consistent production. The farm’s 10 electric wells and center-pivot systems provide the foundation needed to take advantage of the area’s climate and growing conditions.

The property also benefits from its location within an active agricultural trade area. Local and regional cooperatives, grain elevators, feed yards, ethanol facilities, and livestock operations provide multiple potential outlets for grain and forage production.

Livestock feeding creates particularly important demand for locally grown corn, silage, hay, and other feed ingredients. Oppliger Feeders is located in Wallace, with additional cattle-feeding operations situated throughout Lincoln County and the greater North Platte region. The concentration of livestock production provides area farmers with access to end users and additional marketing alternatives for both grain and forage crops.

The farm is also positioned within reach of the established ethanol industry surrounding Sutherland and western Nebraska. Midwest Renewable Energy operates a dry-mill ethanol facility in Sutherland, providing another regional market associated with corn processing and livestock-feed coproducts.

This combination of productive irrigated farmland and proximity to grain, ethanol, and livestock markets may reduce transportation distances, broaden marketing alternatives, and provide greater flexibility in deciding where and when to sell production.

Grain Storage and Operational Improvements

Two grain bins provide about 50,000 bushels of storage each, for roughly 100,000 bushels of combined on-site grain storage.

This storage can improve harvest efficiency, reduce dependence on commercial storage, and give an operator greater control over the timing and delivery of grain. Storing production on the farm may also allow an owner to evaluate alternative markets and delivery periods instead of being required to move the entire crop directly from the field at harvest.

With nearly 1,600 acres, 10 center pivots, 10 active registered irrigation wells, electric power, and substantial grain-storage capacity, this property is ideally suited for an established producer looking to expand, a large-scale operator seeking an efficient production unit, or an agricultural investor pursuing a significant income-producing land asset.

Located near Wallace, the farm benefits from an established agricultural community and access to regional grain markets, transportation routes, equipment dealers, agronomy services, ethanol production, and livestock-feeding operations. The combination of scale, irrigated production, electric infrastructure, on-site storage, and proximity to multiple end users makes this a rare and compelling Nebraska agricultural offering.
