Located along the South Fork of the Sangamon River, and only minutes from Springfield, lays this 180 acre multi-purpose farm. 90 FSA tillable acres, with an overall Productivity Index rating of 127, is located in one block along the eastern side of the farm. Of those 90 acres, 78 are currently being farmed and provide a great return on investment. The remaining 90 acres is a mixture of mature timber and young growth trees than run the entire length of the farm from north to south. This natural corridor would give the new owner the ability to strategically design multiple pinch points between the river and the tillable acres, utilizing almost any wind direction, especially for any deer cruising during the rut. Adding a few acres of green and grain food plots could also turn this place into a dynamic late season hunting farm.
