Barnes County - TBD County Road 60, Marion, ND
ONLINE AUCTION STARTING AT 9AM ON DECEMBER 16, 2025 AND ENDS AT 2PM ON DECEMBER 18, 2025 THIS IS A RESERVE AUCTION. There’s a quiet kind of power in standing on land like this—156± acres of rich, flat, endlessly productive North Dakota farmland that seems to stretch straight into the horizon, an unbroken expanse of promise under an enormous sky. This tract in LaMoure County, located just 5.5 miles south of Litchville on County Road 60 and then east on 58th Street SE, represents everything that makes the upper Midwest such a remarkable agricultural region: deep, fertile soil, reliable yields, and the peaceful, enduring beauty of open country. As you arrive at the northwest corner of the property, the view unfolds into a sea of level ground, an agricultural canvas designed by nature for efficiency and abundance. The field is notably, almost perfectly flat—an even surface that allows modern machinery to glide effortlessly, that makes every pass efficient, every harvest clean, every acre easy to work and fully usable. Beneath that flat plain lies some of the finest soil you can find in the county, with an overall Soil Productivity Index of 79.7 and a National Commodity Crop Productivity Index (NCCPI) of 54.3, along with 134.64 acres boasting a remarkable productivity rating of 85. These aren’t just numbers—they’re the language of success for farmers who know the value of strong soil and predictable output. This is ground that rewards good management and holds its fertility season after season, a living investment that returns value every year. The loam here is rich and well-drained yet retains moisture beautifully, perfect for soybeans, corn, wheat, and small grains. With its near-perfect drainage and uniform topography, there’s no wasted space, no awkward corners, and no wet patches to worry about—just broad, working acres that respond to modern methods with grace and precision. It’s land built for today’s farming: consistent, high-performing, and efficient from one end to the other. Every operator knows that truly level ground is a treasure—less fuel, less time, less wear, and more yield—and this property exemplifies that rare combination of top-tier soil and perfectly manageable terrain. The result is a farm that feels as rewarding to work as it is profitable to own.
The surrounding area supports this land with the kind of strong agricultural infrastructure that North Dakota is known for. The nearby towns of Litchville, Marion, LaMoure, Oakes, and Valley City form a tight-knit network of farming communities, each providing essential services such as grain elevators, input suppliers, co-ops, and equipment dealerships. These small towns thrive on agriculture, and they offer the kind of reliability and support that make operating here efficient and practical. The roads leading to the property are well-maintained and built for heavy equipment, ensuring easy access year-round. County Road 60 and 58th Street SE provide direct entry to the property’s northwest corner, connecting easily to main routes that lead to all major nearby grain markets. For an operator, this means smooth logistics and straightforward hauling; for an investor, it means knowing that tenants will always find this land easy to work and convenient to reach. Every practical detail has its place here—from accessibility to soil composition—and together they form a complete package of utility and value. Yet beyond the numbers and infrastructure, what truly makes this property special is its beauty.
Standing out in the middle of this farm, with the breeze moving through the stalks and the sky stretching without limit, you feel the quiet rhythm of the prairie. It’s a rhythm that has shaped generations of families, one defined by early mornings, long days, and sunsets that paint the horizon in fire and gold. The fields shimmer in summer with green vitality, then turn golden and ready for harvest under autumn skies that seem impossibly wide. The light here changes by the hour—soft and pink in dawn, bright and clean by midday, and deep orange in the fading evening—and with each change comes a reminder of why so many people call this region home. In every direction, the landscape tells a story of endurance and abundance. Rows of mature shelterbelts line the distant boundaries, offering protection from the wind and shelter for wildlife. Beyond those trees, the land continues in a gentle patchwork of neighboring fields—wheat, corn, soybeans—each a testament to the region’s remarkable productivity. The air carries the scent of earth and grain, and when the harvest comes, the sound of combines rolls across the prairie like a steady heartbeat. This is more than a farm; it’s a living piece of North Dakota’s heritage.
The area around this property is also a haven for wildlife. Hunters know LaMoure County as one of the state’s premier destinations for pheasants, ducks, geese, and whitetail deer. The mix of open fields, seasonal wetlands, and nearby tree lines creates an ideal environment for game. Every fall, the migration brings thousands of waterfowl sweeping overhead, filling the sky in motion and sound. Pheasants flush from the grass, ducks circle the sloughs, and deer move quietly along the edges of the fields at dawn and dusk. For landowners who enjoy the outdoors, or who wish to lease hunting rights, this property adds another layer of value beyond its agricultural yield. It’s the kind of land that produces not only crops, but memories—a place where productivity and recreation coexist naturally.
The climate in this part of North Dakota is ideally suited to agriculture, shaped by four distinct seasons that each play their role in the cycle of growth. Spring arrives with snowmelt and fresh promise, when the soil darkens with moisture and machinery rolls out for planting. The long summer days bring warmth and energy, with average highs in the upper 70s to low 80s—perfect for corn and soybeans. Rainfall is well distributed through the growing season, averaging between 18 and 20 inches per year, ensuring strong vegetative growth without waterlogging. Autumn comes cool and clear, the time of year when this landscape seems to glow in every direction. It’s harvest season—when the air is crisp, the colors are rich, and the sense of satisfaction is tangible. Winter, though cold and quiet, is part of the land’s rest—snow blanketing the fields, replenishing the soil’s moisture, and preparing it for the next year. This steady rhythm of weather, moisture, and temperature gives North Dakota agriculture its dependability. Even in years when other regions face drought or flood, LaMoure County often holds steady, supported by its natural balance and the wisdom of those who farm it.
From an investment standpoint, farmland like this has never been more valuable. Quality ground in LaMoure County holds its worth year after year, supported by strong local demand and the ever-growing global need for food, fuel, and fiber. Investors continue to look toward farmland for its stability, its tangible value, and its ability to generate consistent returns. This tract, with its high productivity, flat topography, and excellent access, checks every box for a long-term, secure asset. It’s large enough to matter, manageable enough to maintain, and positioned in a region known for its consistent performance. For the operator, it’s an easy addition to an existing operation—ready to produce from day one. For the investor, it’s a dependable source of rental income and appreciation. With an abundance of skilled local tenants and a strong agricultural economy, ownership here offers both financial and personal satisfaction. It’s the kind of investment that doesn’t just grow crops—it grows peace of mind.
Yet perhaps the greatest value of this land lies in its simplicity. Everything about it works. The soil is fertile, the field is flat, the access is easy, and the setting is beautiful. There are no complications, no wasted acres, no difficult terrain. It’s straightforward, honest land—the kind of property that does exactly what it’s supposed to do. It’s as if nature and time collaborated to create the perfect balance of utility and serenity. When you stand here, you understand why North Dakota farmland continues to attract both lifelong farmers and new investors. You feel the history in the soil—the echo of the first plow that turned it, the generations of farmers who trusted it, the continuity that connects past and future. You imagine the rows of young green plants pushing through the black earth in spring, the hum of harvesters in the fall, the quiet snow covering it all in winter. You see not just land, but a living system of growth and renewal, a landscape that gives back what you put in, multiplied by the strength of nature and the care of good management.
In every direction, the horizon seems infinite, and that sense of space carries both freedom and stability. Here, the sunsets linger, the stars shine clear and close, and the quiet at night feels complete. It’s a property that embodies everything that makes rural North Dakota remarkable—its productivity, its peace, and its permanence. With a Soil Productivity Index of 79.7, an NCCPI of 54.3, and 134.64 acres rated at 85, it stands among the county’s finest tracts. Its nearly perfect flatness enhances efficiency and yield, while its access and location near Litchville and other key towns ensure practicality and market reach. Add to that the wildlife, the scenery, and the sense of timelessness that only a place like this can provide, and you have a property that is as rewarding to own as it is to work. Whether you’re a producer looking to expand, an investor seeking steady returns, or simply someone who understands the value of good ground, this 156± acre LaMoure County farm offers everything—fertile soil, level land, community, and continuity. It’s more than acreage; it’s opportunity rooted in the heart of the prairie, ready to be part of your
