Property Overview
This 320± acre agricultural property in Chesterfield, Idaho, is built around the one thing that matters most in productive ground: water reliability paired with proven output. Of the total acreage, approximately 240 acres are under pressurized irrigation with the balance in fenced pasture, creating a clean, efficient layout that supports both row-crop and mixed-use operations.
The property is supported by 4,525 shares of Toponce Canal Company water rights, delivering water to a private on-site reservoir with 24± acre-feet of storage capacity. A 90-horsepower pump, paired with a new booster pump, supplying two three-quarter circle pivots, ensuring consistent delivery across the irrigated ground. An NRCS-approved grant is in place to fund piping of the on-site canal, offering the opportunity to reduce seepage loss and improve long-term water efficiency once completed. A natural spring also runs through the acreage, adding redundancy and stock water value.
Operational history reflects dependable performance, with grain yields ranging from 70 to 90 bushels per acre or two alfalfa cuttings annually, averaging three to four tons per acre. The entire property is perimeter-fenced and well-suited for continued agricultural production without requiring additional infrastructure investment.
