2,077 Acres
Curtis, Nebraska, 69025
A rare and very nice irrigated farm opportunity located in northern Frontier County, NE with 1,141 Middle Republican NRD Certified irrigated acres on very productive cropland soils.Known locally as the Earl Johnston Farm and titled as T. A. J. Land Inc., Frontier Lincoln Farm is a highly productive farm. Highlights of this opportunity include: · 2,077.89 taxed acres · 751.38 Middle Republican NRD certified irrigated acres under pivot · 389.62 Middle Republican NRD certified irrigated acres for gravity irrigation · Nearly all cropland is Class I and II Hall silt loams with 1 - 3% slopes · Electric powered wells with good water availability · Very good county gravel road access · Multiple producers in the area for the Investor Buyer · Multiple commodity marketing opportunities · 200,000 bushel of grain storageWith a total of 2,077.89 taxed acres in Frontier and Lincoln County, the Frontier Lincoln Farm stands out as a premier, contiguous property in a region recognized for its top-tier cropland. The land use is apportioned as: 751.38 acres are dedicated to pivot irrigated cropland, 389.62 acres to gravity irrigated cropland, 299.85 acres to non-irrigated cropland, 380 acres to fenced rangeland, 220.83 acres to unfenced rangeland,Building sites comprise 10.23 acres, while infrastructure for roads and waste covers 25.98 acres.The centerpiece of the farm includes seven Valley 8000 center pivots—five installed in 2002 and two in 2015—all serviced by four high-capacity, 200 hp electric wells interlinked with buried water lines. These wells efficiently supply water to both the pivots and gravity irrigation systems, ensuring reliable production across the farm’s certified irrigated acres. An ample inventory of line and gated pipe is included in the offering, enhancing the farm’s operation.Gravity irrigated cropland is notably concentrated in Section 9, with approximately 300 acres primarily watered by Well #4, though Well #2 can supplement as needed. The remainder of the gravity irrigated acres is intermixed with the pivot-irrigated fields, enabling strategic crop rotation and water management. Non-irrigated cropland is also intermixed throughout, with notable 52-acre and 50-acre fields positioned at the northwest and southeast corners of the property, respectively.Soils are remarkably productive, with 92% classified as Class I and II Hall silt loams exhibiting gentle 1–3% slopes, making the land exceptionally well-suited for sustained, high-yield cultivation.The pastureland on the farm is divided into two fenced pastures—a 141-acre north pasture and a 239-acre east pasture—each supplied with stock water systems. The north pasture benefits from an electric submersible well and pipeline, which also supplies water to two neighboring operations. The east pasture uses an electric pump jack and the submersible well at the rental house. Two additional stock tanks provide water for stalk grazing, and the farm’s extensive unfenced rangeland offers valuable off-season forage.Beyond production, the farm enjoys strategic proximity to multiple ethanol plants, cattle feeding facilities with a combined capacity of over 200,000 head, and multiple grain delivery stations.While the property is currently subject to a lease expiring February 28, 2026, full possession will be available at closing. Given the integrated nature of the irrigation systems, the farm is offered as a single, unified operation—although coordinated buyers may negotiate a division post-sale if desired. Farm access is convenient, with entry points from Cottonwood Road (Road 393), County Road 749, and County Line Road.Altogether, Frontier Lincoln Farm presents a rare opportunity: a turn-key irrigated property with exceptional soils, robust water infrastructure, and access to vigorous regional commodity markets.Frontier Lincoln Farm includes 2 building sites. The Owners House is a 1969 one story 1,520 sq ft house with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathroom. The Rental House is a 1950 one story 1,839 sq ft house with 3 bedroom and 1.25 bathrooms.
