Sheley
Green Acres is an Eastern Oregon farm situated 15 minutes East of Burns Oregon
off highway 20. The farm encompasses a
total of 1,220+/- deeded acres featuring 725.3+/- acres of water right that is
primarily irrigated by 4 pivots planted in alfalfa with the remaining balance
irrigated by wheel lines & flood.
The improvements on the property include two manufactured homes, hay
storage, corrals, & a machine shed. The acreage includes extensive fence
management with cross fencing and perimeter fencing, allowing the acreage to be
transitioned into more of a cow outfit with a range of irrigated pasture. While the farm ground has been well taken
care of and is suited for productive hay growth with the ability to run some
cows as it currently is being used.

With most
of the water rights dating back to the 70’s through early 90’s, the irrigation
is sourced from 7 irrigation wells with storage rights to a 9.4 acre
reservoir. The majority of the
irrigation wells & pivots are interconnected with one solo pivot being
located 11.5 miles east of the main deeded portion. While the 474 acres of pivots are planted in
alfalfa, the remaining portions are flood irrigated planted in wild hay meadow &
wheel lines planted in rye.

The two
homes are both 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom setups with the main home being a 1999
manufactured triple wide & the other being a 1998 manufactured double wide. Next to the 1998 home is a set of working
corrals & a 960sqft machine shed that is enclosed on 3 sides. The 6,000 Sq.Ft. hay cover is located at the
farm entrance allowing for easy access to transport.

The
land hosts exceptional amounts of wildlife throughout the year. Water from the irrigation & the reservoir
allow for habitats for all sorts of bird and animal species including waterfowl,
ducks, antelope, & mule deer. The
acreage qualifies for LOP tags for both elk & deer.

The
remaining ground is utilized for range for the 75 head of cattle throughout the
year. The ground has been well cared for
by the current owners management with proper crop rotation & ideal
irrigation equipment in place, making it a turnkey operation for someone to
continue farm production or transition the farm into a cattle outfit.

IRRIGATION

The 725
acres of water rights are split up between 474 acres irrigated under pivot, 125
acres irrigated by wheel lines, & the remaining amount being irrigated by
flood & the 9 acre pond. All
irrigation by pivot is planted in alfalfa with two pivots equipped with LESA
systems to provide more efficient water application.

The flood
is irrigated by seasonal runoff & an irrigation well complemented with
above ground lines to distribute the water in several different locations. The flood is planted in wild hay meadow
providing feed for the cattle in the later portion of the irrigation year. The 125 acres of wheel line irrigation have
been planted in rye in past years & used for pasture in the late summer.

A
single pivot is located on Penny Rd to the East of the main headquarters,
irrigating 125 acres the pivot is self supported with a well located near the
center. The irrigation systems around
the headquarters are primarily interconnected with the wells & mainline to
support the entire system.
