Buying Iowa Farmland at Auction!

Buying & Selling some Iowa Farmland! Starting to transition closer to home and near Spencer's current farmland. Also in no way trying to brag when it comes to anything with buying land, selling land or money. Just trying to document the journey of getting started farming. I was fortunate enough to buy some land from a neighbor and buy some more land at an auction. It's all being traded around, so on the net, nothing will change. Just different acres in different locations, and I won't have a machine shed for the time being. Also wanted to take a look at historical price trends all the way back to the 1860s in this specific county. Thanks for watching!

"trying to grow big"??? Are you on crack? BigAg is EXACTLY why rural communities are falling apart and young people RUN away as fast as possible. You are so far the azz of BigAg & Farm bureau you can't even see the light of fires burning down rural America

I would love to see some haying videos. Brings back memories of cutting, raking & baling hay in the 1960's in northeast Indiana. I drove a JD 2010 to cut, an old JD "B" to rake & a neighbor's small MF to bale. Drove a JD 4020 to plow & till. You cannot beat the 4020. I enjoy watching your videos down here in TX. Best wishes for a successful 2024 farming season!😊

Lovin' the tiling! I'm torn on the idea of owning a tile plow. Old 4 wheeler sounds like a lot of maintenance, but, simpler to work on than other stuff maybe? Excavator, semi, and tile plow, maybe a Hilbert brothers tiling business? Quite a change from software.

Grant, your local water department should be able to fix you up with water. May cost a bit but could be pretty reasonable. That would help your issue of not water for the sprayer.

On the tile plow that’s a great idea but in my opinion you might destroy that the 8110 I don’t really know about the how it would work but that’s what I think I know it would destroy our magnum 7230 it’s probably pushing 250 horse but the tile plow would destroy it’s drive line

The farm Grant was referring to was in Sioux county, Ia, which is not as close to Sioux falls as I thought. You are right very good farm found. I guess all it takes a farm auction 2 buyers that really want the land to bid it up to add to there operation.

Id say tile and farm that back peace but then our experience is a sprayer is going to be way more worth it than a tile plow id for to just hire out the tile and build a shed along a road and get heat and everything in it break room electrical pluming that stuff full concrete floor and put a well right next to it then id look into a second tractor doesn't need to be near as new as the 8110 our biggest tractor is a 8110 and were farming 1500 acres id look into somthing like a 4630 similar horse just older and cheaper mabey a little slower but id buy that a cart the 4630 could pull then id look into a sprayer and along with it a roof off to the side of the shed you could put water tanks in that way you can just fill up and go your not waiting on the well at that point id start thinking cold storage land and a small bin setup mabey 2 bigger bins im talking by our pa standards not the massive ones you guys got out there but 2 bins one a top dry for your corn then a wet bin and a smaller bean dryer
