354.2+/- Acres CRP Hunting Ranch Land in Lamb County, Texas

DESCRIPTION: 354.2+/- Acre Conservation Reserve
Program Tract in Lamb County, Texas, offering a rare opportunity that must be seen
to be appreciated.  The farm has been in
the same family for over 100 years, so this is a first-in-a-lifetime chance to
buy this farm. This parcel is comprised of two labors of Lamb County Improved
Grass with a few scattered trees throughout the offering.

This tract boasts several unique aspects
including paved Farm to Market Road Frontage along approximately 1 mile on the
western boundary of the property.  There
are also electric utility lines on the other (west) side of FM 37 running down
the west side of the property along with an electric pole with an old transformer
in the NW corner which was an old homestead site (the home is no longer present).
 That location is where there is an old
domestic well, but current working condition is unknown. There is also an
electric utility line close to the south boundary that transverses the southern
property line east/west just south of bordering county road 1243.

Another beneficial wildlife/livestock aspect to
this tract is that it has diverse topography with some slope for the area. In
previous decades, this farm was terraced along the contour of the slope to
prevent soil erosion and help retain moisture on the slopes. These terraces
help hold seasonal rainfall in various areas of the tracts which would
otherwise all run to the playa basin on the farm.  The large playa basin primarily located on
the southern labor will also collect water during intense seasonal
thunderstorms.  Additionally, there is
also an area in the southwestern part of the north labor just next to FM 37,
where years ago the state removed dirt to build up FM 37. This area now serves
as a mini basin which will catch water during wet periods of intense rains. With
the combination of the basins and the terraces, a large portion of the rain
that falls on this farm should stay on the tract.

LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Tract 1: All of Labor 11, League 211, Deaf Smith County School Lands,
Lamb County, Texas approximately 177.1 Acres, Tract 2:  All of Labor 20, League 211, Deaf Smith
County School Lands, Lamb County, Texas approximately 177.1 Acres.

TOPOGRAPHY:  Overall, the north tract
gradually slopes to the east, with eastern elevations being from 7’ to 14’ feet
lower than corresponding elevations on the west.  There is a slight increase in elevation on
the north labor in center of the labor which forms a mild ridge that gradually
decreases in elevation on the south end of the labor that then begins to slope
to the playa basin on the south labor and also to a playa on the neighboring
tract to the east.  The southern labor is
generally a playa basin that slopes to the playa located in the NW part of the
labor.  With the highest points of the
south labor being in the SW and SE corners which are 8’ to 9’ higher than
corresponding elevations in the NW and NE corners.

IMPROVEMENTS: There is an old domestic well on the property that was working when
the owners quit using it years ago, but the current status of the well is not known.  Other than an old dilapidated well house
there are no other improvements on the property.

WATER FEATURES:  There is a large playa basin primarily located in the NW part
of the southern labor, along with a couple of low-lying areas in terraces that
can hold rain at times, and an area by FM 37 in the SW part of the north labor
where soil was removed and used by the state to build up the roadbed for FM
37.  All these areas can catch and hold
water for limited amounts of time during the rainy season.  There are some trees in areas that hold this
water probably due to the fact they hold moisture longer during dry seasons and
droughts. Wetlands are located on both tracts in the above described areas,
Tract one has a few acres on western boundary designated as Pem1cx Freshwater
Emergent Wetlands, Tract 2 has large playa that has some land designated as
Pem1a Freshwater Emergent Wetlands.

FENCING: There is
currently no useable fencing on the property.

WILDLIFE, HUNTING AND RECREATION: This tract should be very good for deer, quail, and possibly dove
hunting.  The area is known for producing
good mule deer bucks due to farming in the area.  There are some farmers in the area that
sometimes plant forage/grain crops like grain sorghum which will help draw in
wildlife in the fall harvest season, which coincides with Mule Deer Hunting
Season.  By implementing wildlife
management practices there is potential for increased wildlife activity.  Much of the terrain with changes in
elevations and terraces could also function as wildlife funnels and travel
corridors for deer moving from production areas to bedding areas on this tract
or adjacent tracts.  This parcel with the
diverse topography and terraces that provide water retention could also hold
more game.

SOIL: With the
exclusion of the playa basin the soil on the farm consists primarily of Amarillo
fine sandy loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes, with moderate levels of Arvana fine
sandy loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes, and Amarillo fine sandy loam, 0 to 1 percent
slopes and an area of Acuff loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes on the western part of
North labor. The next largest type of soil which is located primarily in the
bottom of the playa basin is Randall clay, 0 to 1 percent slopes, occasionally
ponded and then on the slopes there is a fair amount of Amarillo fine sandy
loam, 3 to 5 percent slopes.  There are a
few other minor soil types such as Mansker fine sandy loam, 3 to 5 percent
slopes and Midessa fine sandy loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes and Portales loam, 1
to 3 percent slopes located on the property primary in areas with more slope.  There is a small area on the South labor that
is identified on Vintage USGS topo map as quarry, the soil map indicates this
is Pits, caliche.
