Land for Sale in Scobey, Montana

Northern Plains Farm & Ranch | 2,193+- Acres | Daniels County, Montana

Located just outside Scobey, Montana, this 2,193.72+- deeded acre farm and ranch represents the heart of Daniels County agriculture--productive dryland farm ground, quality grazing, and a long history of Montana ranching heritage. With a mix of grazing, fallow, irrigated, and hay acres, the property offers both versatility and strong production potential across a wide range of agricultural uses. The land has been carefully managed for soil health and crop rotation, supporting the area's reputation as one of Montana's premier small-grain producing regions.

Acreage Breakdown:

• Grazing: 1,150.573+- acres o Fallow: 954.133+- acres o Irrigated: 23.315+- acres o Wild Hay & Improved Pasture: 65.699+- acres

The property has been responsibly operated with a focus on long-term fertility. Most recently, fields were seeded to durum wheat yielding 35 bushels per acre, along with lentils on a portion of the cropland. Approximately 167.4 acres have flood irrigation rights from the Poplar River, while a separate 245+- acre parcel along State Highway 13 includes an irrigation well and supplemental water rights. Although the current pivot system is not in operation, the groundwork is in place for restoration or modernization.

On the north side of the property lies a separate 160-acre tract that could be sold independently.

This parcel offers strong homesite potential with elevated views overlooking the surrounding farmland and town of Scobey, plus nearly 20 acres of irrigated rights ideal for hay or small grain production.

The main ranch yard sits on the historic homestead of Mansfield Daniels, founder of the original town of Scobey. A mobile home, heated shop, two cold-storage buildings, and barn provide functional infrastructure for an operating ranch, and a new septic system was installed within the past few years.

The topography is classic northeastern Montana--rolling prairie, gentle coulees, and fertile grain country with consistent grass growth and hay production. Butte Creek runs nearby, and the region supports abundant upland bird populations, including pheasant and sharp-tailed grouse.

With State Highway 13 frontage, well-maintained county road access, and proximity to multiple Hi-Line elevators and grain markets, this property is well-positioned for a working farm, ranch expansion, or long-term investment holding.

Scobey Farm & Ranch embodies what makes northeastern Montana special: wide-open country, dependable production, and deep agricultural roots.
