168+- acre tillable/CRP property McDonough cty IL

This solid, versatile piece of farmland/hunting property listed right outside Colmar in western McDonough County, Illinois, the 168.42-acre (FSA) row crop farm with 155.19 tillable acres offers strong production potential, especially with farming open for 2026. Key highlights: - CRP component - 26.9 acres enrolled, paying $273.93/acre through 2038 (that's roughly $7,370+ in annual guaranteed income, providing nice stability). - Additional ~26 acres recently out of CRP, now in grass/small trees - reclaimable for cropping with some cleanup, potentially boosting tillable acres back toward the full 155+. - Access - Excellent equipment entry from hard road/gravel on the south, plus well-maintained gravel on east/west for the north piece. - Extras - Nice pond in the timber, plus strong hunting lease potential (deer/turkey hunting in this area is excellent). - Pricing - $7,995/acre ($1,346,450 total) For context on the market (as of early 2026): - Recent McDonough County farmland sales have ranged widely, but productive tillable ground often falls in the $10,000-$12,000+/acre range for high-quality soils (e.g., August 2025 sales around $11,000/acre on 63+ acres with strong soil scores). Broader county averages hover around $8,000-$11,000/acre depending on tillable percentage, location, and features. - Statewide Illinois farmland values have been relatively stable to slightly softening in recent reports (e.g., modest declines in some 2025 benchmarks due to commodity prices/interest rates), but good income-producing tracts with CRP or hunting upside hold value well. - CRP rates vary by county/practice, but your $273.93/acre is solid for the enrollment period. The combo of row crop income, CRP payments, reclaimable acres, easy access, pond, and hunting appeal makes this a well-rounded opportunity-ideal for a farmer wanting expansion, an investor seeking yield + recreation, or someone blending both.
