Property Description
Midwest Land Group is proud to present this 40 +/- acre hunting, recreational, and income-producing farm located in Decatur County, Iowa. Tucked into the heart of southern Iowa’s proven whitetail country, this property offers the increasingly rare combination of exceptional wildlife habitat, dependable annual income, and a less than one-hour drive from Des Moines. Quality river tracts with long-term CRP revenue and this level of cover simply do not come available often.33.02 acres are enrolled in the CP31 CRP tree program, paying $198 per acre through September 2040, generating $6,538 in annual income. This established contract provides predictable cash flow for the next 14+ years while creating outstanding bedding and security cover. The tree plantings have matured into dense structure that supports year-round wildlife use and significantly increases holding power.
The Thompson River cuts through the southeast corner of the property, adding a natural travel corridor and consistent wildlife draw. River frontage combined with established CRP plantings and hardwood timber creates ideal transition zones, edge habitat, and rut movement opportunities. Smaller tracts with this kind of river influence routinely hunt bigger than their acreage.
Two shed antlers were picked up while photographing the property, including a solid 5-point side. Trail camera photos have captured multiple bucks along with consistent turkey activity, and there is no shortage of deer sign throughout the farm. Roughly one acre has been intentionally left out of the current CRP contract to allow for a food plot location, giving the next owner the ability to further strengthen an already strong setup.
For buyers looking for a manageable hunting tract that also produces reliable annual income, this farm checks the boxes. Contact Korey O’Day at (515) 519-5779 for more information.
