Recent land sales across the Midwest show that buyer demand remains steady, even as overall listings stay limited. The latest report highlights representative sales from Kansas and Missouri, along with two strong transactions from Illinois, one of Land Sales Bulletin’s core Midwest reporting states.
In Kansas, cropland in Ottawa County sold for $2,450 per acre at online auction, supported by productive silt loam soils and consistent wheat yields . Missouri’s Reynolds County pastureland brought $2,500 per acre, reflecting strong forage production and well‑maintained fencing and water infrastructure.
Illinois posted two notable sales:
• Knox County: 87.78 acres sold for $8,200 per acre, offering productive tillable ground and upland game habitat.
• Tazewell County: 40.3 acres reached $19,900 per acre, supported by a strong 138.5 Productivity Index and high‑quality soils including Ipava and Sable.
These sales underscore the resilience of Midwest farmland markets, where buyer interest remains high and finalized transactions continue to reflect strong regional demand. Farm Progress: https://www.farmprogress.com/farm-business/buyers-still-lining-up-for-land-sales
