Vale Hay Farm

Available in Vale

Situated about five miles west of Vale, the seat of Malheur County, the area is characterized by productive farms and ranches and a mild, temperate climate that makes it an especially enjoyable place to call home. Vale is a close-knit community of just over 2,000 residents, conveniently located within 30 minutes of Ontario and about 90 minutes from Boise, Idaho. It was also the first town encountered by travelers along the historic Oregon Trail.  The land is in the Southeast corner of Graham Blvd and Greenfield Road.

Hay & More Hay

The property consists of 102± acres, with 100± acres under irrigation supported by water rights through the Vale Irrigation District. Irrigation is delivered through 4 gravity-pressurized pivots, allowing for efficient water application and strong production capacity.  The hay crop yields have been approximately 7 – 71/2 ton per acre and the current owner is willing to transfer hay production mid-season to buyer interested in producing hay this year.

The gravity-pressurized water service significantly reduces pumping expenses. The land is currently planted in various hay varieties and is level making it  ideal for efficient farming.

• 7 Tower pivot – 60% circle – Gravity pressurized

• 4 Tower Pivot – 25% circle – Gravity pressurized

• 3 Tower Pivot – 50% circle – Gravity pressurized

• 2 Tower Pivot – 50% circle – Gravity pressurized

Building Site Available

Along Graham Boulevard, a cleared site, where a previous residence was removed, provides an opportunity for a home site. An existing well and power provide a great start, however the condition of septic is unknown.

More Than Just a Farm

Additionally, outdoor recreation opportunities are plentiful in the area, including Lake Owyhee State Park, the Malheur River, Willow Creek, Bully Creek Reservoir and expansive Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands.

The Vale Hay Farm would be an excellent farming operation where you can live and enjoy the farming life!
