Madison Par. Farm and Hunting Land

Farm Description

Right across the levee from Diamond Island, this 421+/- acre tract has both irrigated farmland and CRP on it for income and hunting opportunity. The cropland, which has some class 1 soil and has soybeans on it this year, consists of approximately 290+/- acres and is all precision leveled with a 1/10 fall for row fall irrigation. Two 10” wells, one with an electric motor and one with a diesel power unit and over 2000' feet of underground 10” pipe and risers irrigate the crops or can be used to flood the fields for the two 20' pit blinds in place which also have great income potential. The close proximity to the river and the surrounding rice fields should provide great duck hunting. Between the precision leveling, underground pipe and risers, pit blinds, culverts and water control structures, and ditch cleaning and road building, the seller has right at in improvements on the farmland alone. The CRP consists of 89+/- acres with an annual payment of approximately There are three new fiberglass box stands on the CRP with room for a couple of more. Several deer were spotted on the property and the proximity to Diamond Island along with neighboring wooded and CRP/WRP property should provide good deer hunting and when the river comes up and pushes those deer across the levee it will get even better. There is a long narrow cypress pond that can be stocked for fishing and one of the wells is close enough to keep it full. Between the pond and the toe of the levee is a long narrow field with a power line running along it that would make an ideal dove field, especially when planted in sunflowers. A mile or so north of the property along Hodge Rd. is a 1.55 acre campsite that goes with the property and for all you LSU fans, a metal building painted purple and gold that measures 30'x54' enclosed, and 60'x54' under roof. There is electricity and water on this campsite in place already. The location of this property makes it a great hunting tract and the income producing potential of the cropland and CRP also make it attractive. This tract also has the possibility to have more of the farmland enrolled in CRP are possibly even WRE for more options. Asking price is per acre.
