Guthrie County, Iowa Farmland Auction - Mark your calendars for Tuesday, June 30th, 2026!

The property consists of 145.60 gross acres m/l situated in Section 9 of Cass Township, Guthrie County, Iowa.

Offered as one tract, the farm includes 133.94 FSA cropland acres classified as NHEL (Non-Highly Erodible Land) and a fantastic CSR2 soil rating of 87.5.

The balance of the tract consists of a grass waterway running west to east across the southern 1/3 of the farm and includes a small rustic cabin built in 2007 that sits within a secluded timbered patch looking over a catch pond. Access is from Utopia Avenue from the west, and the farm sits just 1 mile off Iowa Highway 4, offering quick access to the Iowa Highway system.

Approximately 3.12 acres of waterway exists between the current north and south tillable portions of the farm, which could be converted to add to more tillable acres. Primary soils within the 3.12 acres include Clarion loam and Webster clay loam, and carry a CSR2 rating of 85.9.

Established grass terraces are located in the northeast corner of the tract. There are 6 tile intakes in the terraces, indicating that drainage tile may be present.
