Located in Northeastern Missouri, sits this 90 +/- acre tract that is located near La Plata, Missouri in Macon County. If you have been in the market for a Phenomenal Hunting property and Recreational getaway, this is it!

This property comprises roughly 30 +/- acres of tillable acreage, with the balance of acreage in Timber and Habitat designs. All the old pasture areas have been sprayed multiple times to kill Fescue and promote Native vegetation. The native vegetation is booming, but Indian and Big Bluestem seeds have been added to the seed bank. Shrubs have been planted in the form of saplings and seeds. The shrubs consist of Blueberry, Beauty berry, Silky and Red Osier Dogwood, Grey Dogwood, American plum, and Hazelnut. Chestnut, Pear, Persimmon, and many different species of Oak trees have also been planted throughout this property. Several water holes have been added on the south side of the property, as well as plastic water holes along the two bottom fields. Two years ago, a select TSI was completed, with primarily pallet lumber harvested or cut. The woods now consist primarily of Oak and Black Walnut trees. With the TSI work done, the vegetation has exploded throughout this property, increasing the browse and cover immensely. There are three Clover food plots that are accompanied by clover planted along the field edges that surround the tillable land. The landowner just added $450 worth of Potassium and Phosphorus to the food plots, so they are ready to explode come spring.  The owner will also be leaving a ½ acre of Standing Corn for an additional food source.

Access is a huge factor, and this phenomenal tract offers gravel road frontage on two sides. To screen the road frontage, several small cedars were planted amongst the taller established Cedars along the fence lines to increase screening. Switchgrass was planted as a second layer of screening as well. The owner has participated in the “MU Cover Crop” program over the years of ownership. The program pays for cover crops (Rye and Wheat) that are added by drone to the standing crop for soil health and erosion.  This is also an added food source for wildlife.

If that wasn’t enough to get you excited, the owners recently added electricity to the property and have a camper covered by a brand new lean-to for sleeping quarters. The camper can be purchased separately and would allow the new owners to start hunting and utilizing this property immediately.

This landowner has not cut a single corner when it came to the methodical thought process and vision for this farm. Schedule your private tour today and aim to purchase this farm in time for the 2025-2026 hunting season! To do so, call Michael Young at 618.917.1665.
