\napproximately 285 acres, water is delivered through a combination of closed
\npipelines, open ditches, and buried mainlines that feed risers, wheel lines,
\nand areas of flood and sub-irrigation\u2014eliminating the need for any pumping. A
\nsmall holding structure and diversion point strategically distribute water
\nthroughout the ranch, supporting a productive mix of native pasture and mixed
\ngrass\/alfalfa fields. These pastures are managed through careful rotation and
\nfield maintenance to avoid overgrazing and optimizing both forage quality and
\nyield. Hay production on the irrigated ground consistently averages between 1.5
\nto 2 tons per acre (+\/-), making the operation well-suited for supporting
\ncattle through winter. This efficient and sustainable system ensures reliable
\nforage production while preserving the long-term health of the land.<\/span><\/p>\n
