Barber Ranch: 1,130 Acres
Vaughn-Roth Land Brokers is privileged to present this extremely high-quality parcel for Barber Cattle Company. This is one of the most admired and iconic pastures along U.S. Highway 75 from Oklahoma to the Nebraska border. If you’re familiar with the stretch of 75 Highway between the Pringle Ranch and the town of Buffalo, you know exactly which tract we are referring to. Located in Woodson County Kansas just north of Buffalo and 11 miles south of Yates Center, this property is the real deal if you’re looking for exceptional quality native grass with excellent hunting attributes as well.
This tract totals 1,130 contiguous acres more or less and features qualities that will be a tremendous addition to any cattle operation, whether it be cow/calf or stockers. The rolling pastures of native grass have been well maintained for many years with prescribed burns, Pasturegard and grass-friendly grazing rates.
The fencing is mostly excellent with newer five and six strand barbed wire around the majority of the perimeter with multiple division fences set up for rotational grazing. There are over a dozen ponds on the property with multiple ponds within each trap to catch the rainfall that averages 38” annually. There are multiple draws throughout the property with gentle slopes that provide excellent locations for calving cows with protection from the wind.
Additional features include a 42' x 60' Morton building with beautifully finished living quarters and shop area with rural water, propane, electric and septic system, all built new in 2014. There’s also rural water at the working/weaning pens that include a nice alleyway and load out, squeeze chute and 12 ton overhead bin.
If you’re a hunter as well, you’ll want to take a look at the deer pictures the Sellers provided to us. There have been multiple quality bucks harvested from the property which is also inhabited by Bobwhite Quail and Eastern Turkeys.
One of the Seller’s favorite attributes is of the human kind and that is the relationship they have formed with the local neighbors. The Sellers live out of state and have relied heavily on these local ladies to help operate the ranch in their absence. This mother-daughter duo have a long history in the area, coming from an honest and reputable family of the highest caliber and they run a very successful cattle operation of their own. They have expressed an interest in continuing to provide cattle care for an absentee owner if needed by the Buyer.
If you’re looking for a top-shelf parcel of grass to add to your operation, your search is over. High quality grass set up for rotational grazing, average rainfall of 38” per year, good neighbors, beautiful living quarters, ponds galore, big deer, great location near blacktop and the list goes on.
