Region & Climate
Ness County lies in the semi-arid region of western Kansas, where the rolling plains gradually rise toward the High Plains and the horizon stretches endlessly in every direction. The area receives an average of about 22 to 23 inches of annual precipitation, around 19 inches of snow per year, and enjoys more than 250 days of sunshine. Summers are typically hot and dry, while winters are cool and clear, with the majority of rainfall occurring during the spring and early summer months. This balanced climate supports consistent production of wheat, milo, and native grasses, making it one of the most dependable agricultural regions in western Kansas.
History
Beyond its agricultural strength, the region carries a deep sense of history and heritage. The property sits near the well-known Indian Hill Ranch, a prominent landmark named for the nearby rise once used by Native Americans as a lookout point across the plains. Today, the hill is marked by a striking steel silhouette of a Native American horseman, symbolizing the area's enduring connection to its past. Long before settlement, tribes such as the Cheyenne and Sioux roamed this land, hunting along Walnut Creek and using the rolling prairie bluffs as vantage points and campsites. Traces of that history still echo through the landscape in the creek crossings, the open draws, and the wide western skies all reminders of a time when this land was both home and hunting ground

Ness County - 00000 NC #1, Ness City, KS
Located in the west half of the southeast quarter of Section 9, Township 18 South, Range 24 West, this 78.9 +/- acre tract is positioned just northwest of Ness City in Ness County, Kansas. Offering a rare combination of dependable income, wildlife habitat, and beautiful topography, this property stands out as a strong long-term investment and recreational holding.
The land is fully enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) with a contract in place through September of 2035. This provides the buyer with consistent, reliable annual income for nearly a decade, making it an attractive option for investors seeking predictable returns with minimal management. CRP properties of this quality and duration are increasingly difficult to find, especially at a price point designed to move.
The established native grasses contribute to excellent wildlife cover. This region of western Kansas is widely known for its strong pheasant and quail populations, and the habitat on this tract supports that reputation. In addition to upland game, the property is near Wild Horse Creek, one of the few water sources in the area. The creek provides water, cover, and serves as a natural travel corridor for whitetail deer, significantly enhancing the recreational appeal of the land.
While the property is currently enrolled in CRP, it is underlain by highly productive soils with an impressive NCCPI score of 72. This adds significant long-term value, giving a future owner the option to return the land to tillable acreage once the CRP contract expires. The proven soil productivity supports strong crop history potential and enhances the overall investment quality of the tract. To add even further value, the sellers will convey mineral rights as well.
In addition to its income and soil strength, the property offers exceptional scenic appeal. The gently terraced topography rises into a subtle incline, creating an elevated hilltop that provides sweeping views of the surrounding Kansas prairie. This natural vantage point would make an outstanding lookout location or a potential future build site, offering peaceful surroundings, open skies, and classic western Kansas views that are increasingly sought after by buyers.
Whether you are looking to diversify a land portfolio, secure a steady income, or own a manageable recreational tract with proven wildlife presence, this Ness County CRP property checks all the boxes.
