Great farm in northern Childress County, Texas, just nine miles to Wellington and twenty miles to Childress. Highway 83 makes the west border, and CR 15, the east, for easy access to either side of the property. The land is suitable to farming and ranching, with hunting in the native pasture.

The pivot is located on the east side of the property and is serviced by one irrigation well. This well has 8 casing and is ran by natural gas. Electricity is available at the road where the well is, if you wanted to convert to an electric pump. A second irrigation well on the other side of the property, and it is in working condition too, just not currently being used. The pivot is Reinke, has seven towers, and is only two years old. It covers approximately 95 acres in the circle. The current farming tenant has used this ground to grow cotton.
Other farm land consists of fields totaling 180 +/- acres and are currently planted in wheat. Most of the dryland fields were irrigated at one time by a side roll system, before the pivot was installed. The soils are sandy loam (Tipton loam on the east side where the pivot is, primarily Grandfield loam on the northwest side). The tenant has also grown haygrazer. The soils would take well to coastal, if a person wanted more grass for cattle.
The pasture land on the farm consists mainly of a large block of around 130 acres, and several other smaller pieces of pasture around the fields. This large pasture is on the west side and has Buck Creek, a seasonal waterway, going through the middle of it. Along the creek are tall elm trees; in the pasture are mesquites. This grass has not been grazed in years due to the fences needing repair, and there is a lot of grass down there. (The current farmer uses a hot wire around the fields to contain cattle.) There is also evidence of deer and hogs in this part, from buck rubs and game tracks.
