Entire Farm Description:

Approximately 98.79 acres of productive agricultural land in Minnehaha County, South Dakota, is now available. This tract offers mostly level topography, a strong overall soil profile, building eligibility, and convenient gravel road access. Buyers can add quality cropland to an existing operation or hold a well-built block of farmland as a long-term agricultural investment.

Soil quality is the foundation of any farm’s value, and this property is strong on that front. The tract carries a weighted soil productivity index rating of 81.97. The property also includes a building eligibility, which gives a future owner more flexibility. The eligibility allows a building site to be placed on the tract, subject to Minnehaha County zoning and permitting requirements, while the rest of the acres stay in agricultural production. 

The layout of the land is another key strength. The topography is relatively level throughout, with large, workable acres and minimal terrain interruption. Fewer slopes, draws, and odd corners let equipment cover ground efficiently and keep planting and harvest passes straight and consistent. More of the acreage can be put to productive use. For an operator managing time, fuel, and machinery hours, a level and well-shaped field is a practical advantage that shows up season after season.

This property fits a range of buyer goals. A local operator may see it as an add-on to existing acres, allowing more production without spreading equipment across distant fields. An investor may view it as a tangible, long-term agricultural asset, with the option of leasing the ground to a local producer. As part of their due diligence, buyers should review the soils, access, and any current lease or farming arrangements with the Land Specialist. If you are looking to expand your operation or invest in quality farmland, this is an excellent opportunity to acquire some Minnehaha County acres.
