Pioneer School Rd, Merriman, NE 69218

This offering is an agricultural ranch property designed for cattle and grazing, with fencing that divides the land into multiple pastures for rotational use. Water access is a key feature, supported by windmills, tanks on pipeline, live water, and solar-powered wells, along with the property’s irrigation capability. Irrigation is currently provided across 125 acres via a seven-tower Zimmatic pivot installed in 1999, supported by adjudicated water rights totaling 134 acres. The land includes native pasture and irrigated ground, supporting hay and row-crop production, with listed crops including hay, potatoes, rye, and wheat. There are no permanent buildings on the property, and cattle handling is supported by a pipe corral system.

The ranch includes over 3 miles of the Niobrara River, providing live-water access and supporting a wildlife population noted for species such as whitetail deer, mule deer, antelope, elk, turkey, and upland birds. The property is accessed via gravel roadways and includes frontage along a county road and infrastructure along Pioneer School Road. A corral system is located along Pioneer School Road.

For ranch operators and buyers seeking a turn-key ranching and recreation platform, the combination of cross-fenced pastures, dependable water sources, and irrigation infrastructure can support year-round livestock forage and hay production. The property’s river access and documented wildlife presence also support hunting and outdoor recreation uses listed for the property, including hunting, hiking, bird watching, and watersports.
