About This Property

This productive row crop farm, 100+/- acres in New Madrid County Missouri, represents a quality agricultural asset. The farm is not irrigated, but its heavy soils retain moisture for the hot growing months. Its location in the Mississippi River Delta Flyway makes it a very desirable spot for migrating waterfowl. This farm is an area between Yellow Dog and the infamous Gee Bottoms, southwest of East Prairie on New Madrid County Road 714. There are 4 additional farms available for purchase ranging from 160 acres to 460 acres totaling an additional 1,350 acres.

Flat, fertile river ground made for row crops and waterfowl.

New Madrid County spreads along the Mississippi River in the lower Bootheel, its ground made of the deep, fertile alluvium that defines the delta. The land lies flat and rich, planted heavily in cotton, soybeans, corn, and rice, much of it irrigated and cut through with the drainage ditches that keep this low country farmable. For the farmland investor, this is textbook productive delta soil. Recreation centers on waterfowl: flooded fields, sloughs, and river backwaters draw ducks and geese, and doves gather along field edges in early season. Timber is scarce, so the appeal is cropland and wingshooting rather than deer woods. New Madrid is a working agricultural county where the river's old floodplain still sets the terms.
