Kelso Duck Farm is a 212.74-acre contiguous tract located off Highway 138 at Kelso, Arkansas, in Desha County — positioned squarely in one of the most celebrated waterfowl corridors in the Southeast Arkansas Delta. The property sits just 8 miles west of the Mississippi River and 12 miles southwest of the Arkansas and White Rivers, placing it within a major duck migration and wintering pathway surrounded by some of the most storied duck hunting properties in the region.
The land strikes a rare balance between productive agriculture and exceptional duck hunting. Approximately 140 acres of tillable cropland — divided into five water-controlled field units — are currently suited for rice, soybean, and corn production, with real potential to transition into cultivated food plots and sanctuary areas as hunting priorities evolve. Anchoring the property’s waterfowl identity are 30 acres of impounded wooded wetlands, originally converted from aquaculture ponds and now matured over two decades into seven individually water-controlled units dominated by willow trees, scattered oak stands, and native moist-soil vegetation. The result is an established, natural, canopied habitat with areas that support multiple prime hunting locations — in the wetland impoundments and the cultivated land along mature tree lines and numerous wooded field edges alike.
Water control throughout the property is managed via a diesel-powered irrigation well and an established system of levees, ditches, and pipes. A 2.5-acre lodge site with an existing metal building, concrete pads, full utilities, and ample surrounding area provides a ready foundation for a hunting camp built to match the quality of the land itself.
The Kelso Duck Farm is an outstanding duck hunting and agricultural property, which must be seen to appreciate. The landholding is offered for sale at the price of $1,350,000.00.
