Description
Tract 2: Approximately 81.61 Acres of Productive Farmland
If you have been searching for productive Grant County farmland with strong soil ratings and a high percentage of tillable acreage, this approximately 81-acre tract near Stockholm deserves a close look. Featuring approximately 64.83 acres of tillable land, this tract offers quality agricultural value for producers, investors, and neighboring landowners seeking to expand their existing operations.
The tillable acres carry an impressive 77.17 average Crop Productivity Index and a 69.79 average National Commodity Crop Productivity Index. These soil ratings reflect productive farmland for the area and provide strong potential for continued crop production. The quality of the soils, combined with the tract’s manageable size, makes this property an attractive addition to a diversified agricultural portfolio.

Depending on the buyer’s goals, the land may be incorporated into an existing farming operation, leased to an area producer, or held as a long-term agricultural investment. The tract’s configuration and predominantly tillable character support efficient agricultural management.
The balance of the acreage contributes additional diversity to the property. These areas may provide drainage, wildlife habitat, field access, or other supporting agricultural uses. The mixture of cultivated ground and surrounding habitat also creates opportunities for wildlife movement throughout the property and the neighboring landscape.
Grant County is recognized for its productive agricultural land and strong farming tradition. The surrounding area consists of cropland, pasture, wetlands, and rural farmsteads, creating a landscape well-suited for crop production while also supporting whitetail deer, ring-necked pheasants, waterfowl, and other wildlife.
The tract is located near Stockholm and within a convenient drive of Milbank and Watertown. This location provides access to grain markets, agricultural suppliers, equipment dealers, healthcare, retail services, and regional transportation routes while maintaining the advantages of a rural setting.
