Poultry, Cattle, and Hay Farm on The Illinois Bayou

Property Description

This beautiful Pope County farm has multiple improvements to benefit your farming operation on many different levels! Sprawling a vast 283 +/- Acres and being composed of nearly all hay meadow and grass pasture, this well-maintained farm has been groomed with productivity in mind. Along with the three-house poultry operation, the farm has great recreational opportunities along the spectacular Illinois Bayou.

Whether you are running cattle, baling hay, or both, you are sure to be impressed by the improvements here. Excellent fertilization and weed control throughout the fenced and cross-fenced pastures have made them great for grazing or for baling hay. The pastures are fenced in varying sizes, some being smaller traps to complement the well-built corral and working pens. Alongside the grass portion of the farm, the three poultry houses have been an integral part of its success. Two 43’x500’ houses, along with one 40’x500’ sit in a great location on the farm, along with a newly constructed 40'x80' litter shed. The owners have taken pride in keeping these houses in tip-top shape and have placed them at or near the top of the batch. Additional improvements on the farm include a 60'x80' red iron barn perfect for hay and equipment storage, a newly constructed 40'x60' horse barn, and a 2,128-square-foot mobile home.

This farm also comes with the equipment needed to start baling hay and caring for pastures. A 90 HP Kubota Cab tractor, Kubota hay baler, Kuhn V Rake, 4 basket tedder, 200-gallon sprayer, 15-foot batwing mower, and two Kuhn 9’ Hay mowers will all convey with a reasonable offer.

If you are looking for a truly turn-key farm with multiple revenue streams, this farm is one that you do not want to miss. The exceptional maintenance, variety of improvements and equipment, along with its over one mile of frontage on the Illinois Bayou, make this a one-of-a-kind opportunity for investment.
