Moville, IA 51039 - Woodbury County

What a wonderful farm the Alvin Rippke heirs are offering!! This is a very nice rolling central Woodbury County farm that has been in their family for decades. After all the rain this spring those of us who farm these rolling hills can really appreciate not having to fight standing water. The Rippkes have had lots of conservation practices utilized over the years. The terraces and conservation tillage has allowed this farm to maintain high productions and conserve the land as well. They have done a very nice job as stewards of the land.

The Woodbury County FSA shows the following: 141.25 Cropland acres with an 82.70-acre corn base with a 158 bu. PLC Yield Index and a 57.60-acre soybean base with a 42 bu. PLC Yield Index. The farm is enrolled in the ARC county program. The NRCS and Woodbury County Assessors office shows the main soil types to be Ida and Napier with a small amount Monona. The farm carries a weighted CSR II average of 52.5. Approximately 58.6% of the land carries CSR IIs ranging from 58 to mid-80s up to 89.

This will hopefully be one of those farms that when you own it you will always be glad you took that important first step by purchasing it. In these uncertain times the flight to safety of solid hard assets like farmland almost always proves to be a wise move. This rolling ground that has been well cared for over the years proves to be as good as an investment, dollar for dollar, as flatter ground that carries its own challenges as well. With all the practices the Rippkes have put in place to maintain the integrity of this farm, I doubt you will ever be sorry you own it. Best of luck from all of us at Brock Auction Company.
