Carroll County Tillable and Timber

Carroll County, Missouri, has a rich history of farming and agricultural opportunities. With land varying from the Missouri River bottomland on the south side of the county to the rolling hills above the bluffs of the bottomland, and everywhere in between, the one thing that stays consistent is land use. Whether it be corn and soybean rotational farming, grassland used for cattle grazing, or governmental Conservation Reserve Programs, the land is being used for production in the best way possible. With the acres of land that are being used for wildlife programs or just timber, the hunting habitat benefits from having those areas. When you can find a farm that has more than one of those uses, we like to call it a combination farm, and those are often highly sought after, as income and pastimes often collide there!

The 62+/- acre property being offered here is just that, a combination of tillable and timberland. With around 52 acres of tillable land with class II and III soils and an overall NCCPI rating of 77.6, the potential for strong yields year in and year out is there. With the remaining acres being timbered and adjoining many more acres of timber to the south, the potential for hunting and recreation on those acres is present. There is plenty of deer sign, trails, scrapes, and rubs scattered amongst the timber. On one visit, a group of turkeys was seen traveling through the timber just to the south, confirming their presence in the area.

The opportunity to gain more high-producing tillable acres in Carroll County doesn’t come around often, so taking advantage of those opportunities is key to growing your farming footprint locally. The farm is just a few miles outside of Norborne, Missouri, and has good access to E Highway to the north or 10 Highway to the south. Many grain elevators are in the area, with an Ethanol plant being about 10 miles away near Carrollton.
