Prominent soil types include Clarion loam, Webster clay loam, and Canisteo clay loam. Of the cropland acres, there are currently 10.76 acres enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP). These acres carry an average CSR2 soil rating of 79.3 and would be conducive to farming.
The CRP contract details are listed below:
Contract #11519C - 10.76 Acres enrolled in the Farmable Wetlands Program (Practices CP27 & CP28) with an annual payment of $3,228 ($300/acre) This contract is set to expire in September 2027. See the attached 'CRP Map' for approximate locations.
The remaining 47 cropland acres are in a corn and soybean rotation, with majority of the field planted as soybeans for the 2025 growing season. These acres have a CSR2 soil rating of 87.6. Historically, this tract has been farmed north to south, but could easily be farmed east to west as most of the tract is in beans this season, and corn could readily be planted in the bean acres next season. The farm lease has been terminated, and farming rights are available for the 2026 growing season.
Access to the tract is from the north off of paved County Highway D26. Tract 1 sits in Drainage District #114, near the bottom of the district. County Drainage Tile runs through the farm, draining water west off the farm. The tile sizes vary, see the attached 'Tile Map' for approximate sizes and locations.
