Productive irrigated farm offering 263.7 acres in Lemhi County, approximately 6 miles from Salmon, Idaho. With approximately 167 +/- acres under irrigation, this property has been used for strong grass and alfalfa hay production and offers the acreage, water infrastructure, and layout to continue as a working agricultural operation.
Irrigation is supported by 8 pivots, 4 stationary end guns, and irrigation pods, providing efficient and flexible coverage across the irrigated ground. The irrigation infrastructure already in place is an important part of this property, allowing a new owner to step into an established operation rather than starting from the ground up. The irrigated acreage has supported productive hay ground, while the balance of the property adds additional space and flexibility for agricultural use.
One of the features that sets this farm apart is its direct adjacency to public land. From the property, there is access to thousands of acres of Idaho backcountry for hunting, ATV riding, hiking, horseback riding, and exploring. Wildlife is frequently seen on and around the property, giving it a combination of productive agricultural ground and recreational access that can be difficult to find this close to town.
The location is another advantage. At only about 6 miles from Salmon, the property offers the space and privacy of a larger acreage while keeping town, supplies, services, schools, and everyday necessities within a short drive. Open views across the farm and surrounding mountains create the kind of setting people look for when buying land in the Lemhi Valley, without giving up the convenience of being near Salmon.
For a buyer looking for an established farm, the property offers productive irrigated acreage and substantial irrigation infrastructure already in place. For someone looking farther ahead, the size, location, public-land boundary, and overall layout may also provide opportunities for future uses beyond the existing agricultural operation.
Whether the goal is to continue hay production, expand a farm or ranch operation, hold a substantial piece of Lemhi County land for the future, or combine agriculture with direct access to Idaho's backcountry, this 263.7-acre property offers a combination that is increasingly difficult to find: productive irrigated ground, existing infrastructure, public-land access, recreation, wildlife, privacy, and proximity to Salmon.
