HIGHEST AND BEST USE:  In the event the CRP contract on this farm is not renewed or extended, the property could be utilized as a livestock grazing operation.  At the beginning of the CRP program, the farm was planted in weeping lovegrass to prevent erosion; and this lovegrass could be grazed or used as a cover crop to introduce higher protein, native grasses over time.  A new owner running livestock would need to drill a water well to water livestock and put up either an electric fence or permanent barbed wire fencing around the perimeter of the property. 

The property might also appeal to someone wanting to retire to country living while still having good access to shopping.  The small city of Clovis, New Mexico, (population 35,000) is approximately 40 minutes driving time from the farm.  The southeastern area of the farm is somewhat elevated, providing expansive views of farms and prairie land lying to the north.  Pronghorn antelope and mule deer live in the area around the farm.

TAXES:   Curry County real estate taxes for the farm in 2009, totaled $66.15.

PRICE:  $145,000

BROKER’S COMMENTS:  This farm could become a livestock operation, a dry land farm once again or a combination of the two.  Some folks might just want to build a home and enjoy the country life with a view.  In any case this Curry County, New Mexico, farm offers a new owner a large tract of land for not a lot of money, and we hope that you will take the time to look at it with us.
