Property Description
Monroe County, Iowa Farmland Auction – Mark your calendars for Thursday, June 11th, 2026, at 10:00 AM CST! Pleased to represent the Merna J Rusk Estate in the sale of 308.41 surveyed acres in Monroe County, Iowa. This property will be offered in two tracts, providing a unique opportunity to acquire a premier recreational hunting farm alongside a large, contiguous, highly productive tillable farm - all in one auction setting.
Tract 2 presents as 193.50 surveyed acres of productive Monroe County farmland in an area where large, contiguous tracts of tillable ground are a rarity. This gently rolling farm offers 181.80 estimated FSA cropland acres classified as a combination of NHEL and HEL and features dependable Grundy silty clay loam soils with an average CSR2 rating of 55.7. Fingered, timber lined draws through the farm's south half add recreational appeal. Access is from the west off of County Road S63 and from the south from 255th Street. Located southwest of Melrose, Iowa, in Sections 18 & 19 of Jackson Township in Monroe County, Iowa.
Tract 2 Farm Lease:
The farm is leased for the 2026 farming season, and an early lease termination has been agreed upon with the current farm lease terminating on Thursday, December 31st, 2026, or upon removal of all crops from the property, whichever occurs first. The second half rental payment for Tract 2 is due to the new Buyer(s) on or before September 1st, 2026. Please reach out to the Listing Agents for more details.
