Bovine Builder- 1,578 Acres For Sale - Valleyview, AB Selling Online Wednesday, Oct 11, 2023 at 9:00am MDT The Price listed is the Starting Bid. See Website for Updates and Details. https://www.clhbid.com/auctions/bovinebuilder/ 'Bovine Builder' is a rare assemblage of 10 contiguous quarters set up for ranchers, by ranchers. With a mixture of deeded and leased acres, this exceptional Parcel includes surface lease revenue of approximately $14,000 per year. 'Bovine Builder' is located just 6 miles SW of Sunset House, or a mere 13.5 miles SE of Valleyview, Alberta. For ranchers located in central Alberta, ‘Bovine Builder’ is situated 4 hours and 43 minutes north of Ponoka. The 1,578-acre contiguous block provides drought insurance for a southern Alberta operation; ranchers and mixed farmers, get ready to bid on October 11. As those in the business know, summer pasture requirements should necessitate minimal management. Time is money, and time is always in short supply, so every move needs to be calculated. ‘Bovine Builder’ has been taking care of the current owner’s 115 calf-cow pairs for more than twenty years. Their main operation is in Leduc, Alberta, and with a couple of trips per month, or a neighbor checking in now and again, ‘Bovine Builder’ takes care of the herd. With no neighbors to the west, good fences, and a carefully thought-out set-up for ease of movement, there is no cause for panic that the cows might be out. The current stewards of the land take pride that this ranch is effectively managed from afar. In addition to great access to water throughout the ranch, the Sweathouse Creek flows through the southern portion of the Parcel offering abundant water. Good husbandry and ongoing clearing throughout the years has created more options for late fall and early winter operations. Currently, a small portion of the Parcel is in hay and provides enough feed to bale and graze the herd for a couple of months. Wean the calves in October then leave the cattle at ‘Bovine Builder’ until November: good for the land and fewer chores to take care of at home. Comprised of seven deeded quarters totaling 1,098 acres, and three lease quarters adding an additional 480 acres, the Parcel includes an older yard site with pilings in place for a mobile home, existing power, septic, and a phone line, as well as a large dugout situated near the yard. The leased land is up for renewal next year. Recent conversations with a Rangeland Agrologist suggest that signing a 10-year-lease should not be a problem for the new purchaser. The exceptional annual lease revenue of approximately $14,000/year provides enough to pay for trucking and the taxes. Book three liners to carry in the cattle in the spring and you better book four to carry them out in the fall. ‘Bovine Builder' will grow the calves and take care of the ranch’s economic engine: the cow herd. ‘Bovine Builder’ is being offered for sale via online escalating tender by CLHbid.com.
