315.81+/- acres of fertile farmland, offered in two distinct tracts, will be up for auction in November. Located just west of Norton, Kansas, along County Road W-8, both tracts benefit from excellent accessibility just off US Highway 36 and on a well-maintained gravel road. They are also situated a short drive from the scenic Keith Sebelius Lake and the Prairie Dog State Park. Both of these tracts are currently drilled to wheat on a 1/3 2/3 crop share agreement, with full possession upon the harvest of the 2027 wheat crop.

This farm is predominantly composed of Hord and Holdrege silt loam soils, known for their fertility and excellent drainage characteristics. The topography across this tract exhibits a slight to moderate slope as it slopes toward the creek in the center of the farm.
