APPROACH TO MANAGEMENT AND REVENUE: The center pivot irrigated land and much of the Lodgepole Creek Valley are located on excellent, nearly level sites containing one of the most productive soil types in Western Nebraska. The primary soil association for these areas is a Tripp Loam (Ta) with 0-1% slope with a Silty Range site. The NRCS irrigated capability for Tripp Loam is I-1. It is well suited to irrigation and for growing all crops typical of the area. The dryland cultivated capability is IIc-1 This soil association is rated as one of the top crop/forage producing soil associations in Kimball County. Corn, dry edible beans, potatoes, alfalfa, and millet have all be raised on a rotational basis very successfully on the center pivot irrigated land. Irrigated pasture planted to select, high producing grasses along with some legumes would also be a viable option for some of the irrigated land to increase the ranch carrying capacity for either a cow-calf or yearling operation. Cash rents even during periods of modest crop prices have ranged from $100-150 per acre for corn, beans, and millet. When planted to potatoes on a rotational basis, cash rents have commanded up to $250 per acre. Potatoes are an excellent, diversified, cash rental crop for this ranch.

This ranch resource with combined center pivot irrigation, dryland cultivated, and pasture has been analyzed under what would be considered typical crop production and typical cash rents for all the ranch land classes. What follows are the estimates of deeded acres and current real estate taxes; as well as estimates of land classes, crop rents/crop production, under typical/average use and management.
