Tract 5 of 5
Description
Tract 5 Description:
Tract 5 consists of 51± acres of prime waterfowl habitat featuring a highly effective mix of wetlands, timber, native grasses, and productive cropland. This diversity creates natural holding power for migrating waterfowl while maintaining flexibility for active land management.
The combination of food sources, cover, and water allows this tract to function as a complete, self-contained waterfowl setup rather than a single-use parcel. The cropland component provides the ability to influence bird movement through crop selection or post-harvest management, while timber and grasses offer shelter and loafing areas throughout the season. These features work together to create consistent use during migration, not just pass-through traffic.
Access is provided by paved and chip-and-seal road frontage, supporting easy entry for management, equipment, and seasonal use. Tract 5 does not include an irrigation well, reinforcing its role as a habitat-driven parcel rather than a row-crop tract.
Located between the Mississippi River and Reelfoot Lake, this tract sits directly in the heart of the Mississippi Flyway, a location that consistently benefits from high-volume migratory movement. Properties with this type of habitat diversity and positioning are increasingly difficult to assemble in this corridor, making Tract 5 a strong standalone offering or a complementary addition to nearby agricultural ownership.
