Hay Productivity:• 4 Large Valley-8000 Series pivots support over 225 acres of center pivot irrigated hay meadows• Each field can usually produce 5 cuttings per year with hay yields from 70-120 sq bales to the acre per cutting. • Hay is moved to two hay storage barns totaling over 21,000 sq. ft. (50×140 and 100×140) which can hold over 40,000 sq. bales. • Bale production is highly automated with the use of a bale bundler limiting the labor required to maximize profitability and handling

ease.• Fields are fertilized each cutting under the supervision of Helena Chemical Company and supported by annual soil testing to balance

crop needs to enhance quality and productivity. • Weeds are sprayed as needed and an annual application of Medina Soil activator and molasses enhance the soil to maintain its per-

formance.• All hay equipment and inventory is included in list price

Wildlife:• Whitetail deer are maintained in the house pasture. • The native whitetails were removed 10 years ago and the ranch was stocked with 6 bred does and 3 buck fawns one year later. • The herd has been built up naturally to 40-50 adult deer providing for an annual harvest of 15-25 deer depending on fawn recruitment. • The ranch is under MLD Harvest program providing for extended tags and seasons by TP&W. • Over the past 4 seasons the ranch has harvested bucks scoring 265, 217, 189, 182, 173, 170, 162, 158, 153. This season looks to add to

that list with several high scoring bucks on the list, and the crop of up and comers looks to continue the trend into the future.• Dove hunting is one of the ranch’s untapped resources, being the northernmost fields on Hwy 173, sunflower or sesame production

should yield a large number of birds. • Comes equipped with 4 blinds, 5 protein feeders (approx. 1000 lbs each), and 4 corn feeders (350 lbs each). All have been strategically

placed on the ranch.

Minerals: • No current lease or production on the ranch. • Seller will convey 50% of owned minerals upon closing.
