About this property
The Farm Strategy Farm & Ranch is a 1,163.32± acre irrigated farm located in eastern Sheridan County, Nebraska, approximately 9 miles from State Highway 27 and 15 miles from Gordon. The farm sits atop the Ogallala Aquifer within the Upper Niobrara White Natural Resources District, where irrigation wells on the property pump in the 800 to 1,200 gallon-per-minute range, among the strongest well capacities in the region. The farm is developed with four center pivot irrigation systems covering approximately 625± acres, currently under a cash lease to a Nebraska producer, with the balance of the farm in native grass. This combination of exceptional water and productive irrigated ground, paired with grazing acreage, gives the farm flexibility for row crop, specialty crop, or livestock operations. Acreage figures are stated per the NRD, Sheridan County Assessor, and USDA Farm Service Agency records; see the Acreage Counts section for a full reconciliation across sources. Buyers acknowledge they are purchasing a legal description and acknowledge that fences may or may not be on the property lines. Acreage Counts This farm's acreage is documented from several independent official sources. Because deed, survey, NRD, assessor, and FSA acreage figures are compiled differently and commonly differ from one another by small amounts, listing practice is to disclose each source rather than pick a single number. A summary of all four follows, with detail in the sections noted. NRD adjudicated Water Rights: 730.35+/- County Assessor: 1,163.32 +/- total acres County Assessor: 723.91+/- irrigated acres Irrigated Acres under lease: 625+/- Location Strategy Farm & Ranch is located in eastern Sheridan County, Nebraska, approximately 9 miles from State Highway 27 and 15 miles from Gordon, along the Niobrara River valley. Gordon is a farming and ranching community situated on U.S. Highway 20, which runs east-west across the Nebraska Panhandle and connects to regional grain markets, feedlots, and processing facilities throughout the area. The surrounding country is predominantly agricultural, with a mix of irrigated pivot ground and native Sandhills range. The farm's location provides good access while remaining private and consolidated. Nearby Towns Gordon, NE: 15 miles Rushville, NE: 30 miles Chadron, NE: 62 miles (regional airport) Scottsbluff, NE: 140 miles (regional airport) Rapid City, SD: 140 miles (regional airport) Distances are approximate and for general reference only. Active Lease Strategy Farm & Ranch is subject to an active agricultural lease covering the four irrigated pivots (approximately 625± acres). A buyer will acquire the farm subject to the tenant's rights under this lease through the end of the 2027 crop year (November 1, 2027). Grass/pasture acreage and dry corners are not part of the lease and are available for the buyer's own use upon closing. Prospective buyers should review the full lease agreement and any amendments with their attorney. Wildlife & Hunting Strategy Farm & Ranch lies less than one mile south of the Niobrara River, placing it within one of the premier wildlife corridors in the Nebraska Panhandle. The river bottom draws heavy game traffic year-round, and elk, mule deer, and antelope are regularly seen moving across the farm's grass and irrigated ground, especially in the early morning and evening hours. Upland bird hunters will find the mix of native grass, irrigated cropland edges, and river-corridor cover ideally suited to sharptail grouse and other resident species. For a buyer who wants more than a productive irrigated operation, this farm offers a genuine outdoor dimension: a working farm during the growing season and a quality hunting destination the rest of the year, all inside the same fence lines.

Buyer checklist
Questions worth investigating for any farm or ranch purchase. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.
- Legal accessIs there deeded or recorded access to a public road, and are there easements across the land (or that the land relies on)?
- Water rights and wellsA well, pond, creek or irrigation system does not by itself establish a legal right to use the water. Ask for the water right, permit or registration documents and test the well.
- Leases and tenanciesAre there farm, grazing, hunting, CRP, oil and gas or wind leases? Some survive a sale or require notice before they end.
- Soil and usable landHow many acres can actually be cropped or grazed? Check the NRCS soil survey and get a current lab soil test for the use you plan.
- RestrictionsZoning, conservation easements, deed restrictions, HOA rules, floodplain and wetland rules can limit what you can do.
- Building conditionBarns, fences, wells and septic systems need inspection; a listed building may not suit a commercial or livestock use.
- UtilitiesPower, water, septic capacity, internet and road maintenance: who provides them and at what cost.
- What is included in the saleEquipment, growing crops, stored hay, livestock, irrigation equipment, permits and farm program contracts are often separate. Get it in writing.
