Rock County Irrigated Grazing Ranch

Located in the heart of Nebraska's renowned cattle country, this premier 1,283± acre contiguous irrigated ranch represents a rare opportunity to own a highly improved, turnkey livestock operation designed for maximum efficiency, carrying capacity, and profitability. No expense has been spared in developing this exceptional property. The ranch has undergone substantial infrastructure improvements, including new five-wire fencing with steel oil-pipe posts, extensive cross-fencing, multiple water developments, and a highly efficient irrigation system. Every improvement has been strategically implemented to support intensive rotational grazing and maximize forage utilization throughout the grazing season. The foundation of this operation is its eight Valley Center Pivot irrigation systems supplied by electric wells, creating a dependable source of high-quality forage production. Complementing the irrigation system are five newly installed 30-foot steel bottomless tanks and two additional submersible livestock wells, ensuring abundant water availability across the ranch. Each paddock has direct access to a water source, allowing livestock to be distributed evenly throughout the operation and supporting a rotational grazing program capable of handling approximately 2,000 head of cattle. The ranch's extensive cross-fencing and water infrastructure provide operators with the flexibility to implement high-intensity grazing management practices that can significantly increase carrying capacity and improve forage utilization, thereby enhancing overall ranch profitability. The irrigated acres are currently planted to a high-performance blend of oats and barley, providing abundant, nutrient-rich forage designed to promote exceptional daily gains and efficient weight production. Beyond its grazing capabilities, the ranch offers excellent protection and wintering potential. A mature tree shelterbelt along the northern boundary provides valuable protection from Nebraska's harsh winter winds, making this property well-suited for backgrounding, winter grazing, calving operations, or year-round cattle production. Properties of this caliber rarely come to market. Combining extensive irrigation, abundant water resources, modern fencing infrastructure, and proven livestock production capabilities, this Rock County ranch is a true investment in operational efficiency and long-term profitability.
