Recent Notable Sales across Iowa and Wisconsin continue to demonstrate the strength of high‑quality Midwest farmland, according to reporting from American Farmland Owner.

In Sioux County, Iowa, two premium cropland tracts sold for $26,600 per acre on April 2, reflecting the region’s continued demand for nearly all‑tillable farms with strong CSR2 ratings and efficient row layouts.
Tract 1 included 44.5± acres with a CSR2 of 91, while Tract 2 offered 40± acres with a CSR2 of 91.8, supported by proven Galva, Primghar, and Ely soils.

In Dane County, Wisconsin, a 207.55‑acre offering brought $18,750 to $24,000 per acre across five tracts at an April 17 auction.
The farm featured nearly all‑tillable acres, productive Plano, Ringwood, and Traxel silt loams, and strong proximity to Madison — all factors that contributed to competitive bidding in this tightly held region.

These Notable Sales reinforce the continued resilience of top‑quality cropland and the strong operator and investor interest across the our Midwest. https://www.americanfarmlandowner.com/post/notable-land-sales-midwest
