A13 Farm

This turn-key irrigated farm near Mitchell, in the heart of western Nebraska’s productive agricultural corridor, is backed by dual water rights, drawing from both groundwater and surface water, that provide consistent irrigation throughout the growing season. That redundancy protects crop health and yield stability even in years of low precipitation or restricted allocations. The water is delivered by a well-maintained 1998 Zimmatic 7-tower pivot, fitted with 38-inch tires replaced in 2023 and professionally serviced every year for peak efficiency and full field coverage. The farm’s soil quality and rolling topography help that water distribute evenly, which reduces labor while maximizing output. The result is a strong production history averaging 5.7 tons per acre of alfalfa, and the farm is easily adaptable to corn, wheat, or specialty forages as needs change. Excellent road access and nearby Mitchell and Scottsbluff put processing facilities, equipment suppliers, ag services, grain markets, and transportation routes close at hand, which makes the farm practical to manage from a distance. In a market where properties with this level of water security and consistent performance are increasingly rare, this farm was a strategic addition for our buyer, a large dairy operator with farms in several states. It provides a reliable forage source that helps hedge water risk across the portfolio, offsetting shortfalls at farms in other states facing drought or water cuts, and gives the buyer the flexibility to shift crops as herd needs or water conditions change.
