In 19 sixty-two, they sols the one sixty acre Fred Finger farm south of here for $4oo an acre. A new house, two blue Haverstore silos, and an acre of concrete.
A faimily friend said, at six 9ercent, that's 4oo dollars a acre a year! Think on it!
Land has gone u9!!!

I paid $960K for 640 acres of dryland ground about 20 years ago. Since then is has produced $2.15M in gross rental income. I put a well and a center pivot irrigation system on it that used up most of first two years' rent, but having a good well and a center pivot probably doubles the annual crop yield and the amount of rent that the farmer is willing and able to pay. Last year it averaged 288 bushels per acre, including the four corners that aren't under the pivot. The rent was $130K and the corn sold for $868K, so the farmer had $738K available to cover his other expenses. Is it one whole section? It sounds like you bought it at the bottom of the market!

Actually, I traded most of my Father's pre-'64 Winchester Model 70 collection to Bearrr264 for it. He wanted the rifles and I didn't want the memories that they represented.

Around 300 rifles, over 100 that were NIB.

Ha.
Land prices have leveled off here and are down about 40% from their highs 5-6 years ago.
