This is your opportunity to own 400 acres of highly productive farmland in the heart of Marshall County, South Dakota. Located 3 miles east of Kidder and 15 minutes from Britton, this property offers a combination of scale, soil quality, proven yield history, and drainage opportunity. The farm consists of two parcels: 320 acres of mostly tillable ground and an old build site, woodlot, and wetlands located on the south end, and 80 acres of tiled tillable ground. Together, these tracts create a substantial block of prime agricultural land with approximately 358 acres of tillable ground, 30.66+/- acres enrolled in CRP, and the rest being an old building site. The property is accessed by well-maintained township roads, providing reliable entry for all phases of farming, from planting to harvest. Its proximity to Britton ensures quick access to essential amenities such as grain elevators, agricultural input suppliers, and other essential services.
Premium farmland continues to appreciate, and properties like this, with their large size, strong soils, and excellent drainage potential, are among the most sought after. Farmland offers unique benefits as an investment:
Stable asset class with historically consistent appreciation
An inflation hedge and a tangible asset that generates income
Opportunity for improvements (such as tiling) to boost both yield and land value
The ability to tile the remaining 320 acres represents an immediate opportunity to unlock additional productivity and future appreciation. With land values continuing to trend upward in South Dakota, owning a tract of this quality is both a smart business decision and a long term wealth strategy.
The connection to the Wild Rice Creek drainage ditch is a major asset for this property. This established drainage outlet ensures that the existing tile system on the 80-acre tract operates effectively and provides a straightforward pathway for expanding drainage to the larger 320-acre tract.
Beyond its primary use as row-crop farmland, this property offers additional possibilities:
Recreational use: Marshall County is well-known for its populations of whitetail deer, pheasants, and other upland game, adding recreational value for hunting enthusiasts
Alternative income streams: Large tracts like this are often attractive for renewable energy projects such as wind or solar development
Habitat and conservation programs: Wetland areas may be eligible for enrollment in programs that provide supplemental income while supporting conservation goals
