Nichols Farm Description:

Located south of Fort Morgan, the Nichols Farm certainly possesses the unique characteristics of a family farm and yet offers the diversity of a farming operation unlike many other farm properties.  Whether considering raising livestock or crop production, the Nichols Farm offers options instead of limitations.

With approximately 260 total acres, this farm property has over 200 acres of irrigated cropland, 140 acres, of which, are sprinkler irrigated.  Historically, this farm has produced irrigated wheat, corn, sugar beets and alfalfa.  Drawing from the water resources of the 57 Bijou Irrigation District Acres and two irrigation wells, which produce a combined output of over 2,000 gpm, the Nichols Farm provides the good soils and water for strong crop production year in and year out. 

The northeast corner of the farm offers sub-irrigated pasture, resting along the south bank of the meandering Badger Creek, for seasonal grazing and pasturing of livestock.  An on site livestock barn with feed storage, well maintained steel post and cable corrals, concrete aprons and footings provide the facilities for continued livestock feeding and containment in the off season months. 

For equipment storage and repair, a Quonset shop is just the ticket.  This shop amenity has concrete floors and power which makes for a perfect place to perform farm equipment repairs and a great environment for equipment storage.  One medium size home offers on site living quarters for a farm manager or foreman, while a bunk house to the west can house additional manpower.

In search of a place to live out the family farm experience?  Looking for a property that offers a wealth of resources and diversity?  The Nichols Farm is perfect for the individual seeking an investment opportunity.
