Lundahl Research Ranch for SaleLundahl Research Ranch
Sadler / Brown Ranch
Diamond Valley, Eureka County
Nevada

Price:  $5,200,000 including equipment

INTRODUCTION
The Sadler Ranch has long been renowned as a fine ranch and for the fact that Reinhold Sadler once owned it. Sadler, ninth governor of Nevada (term 1896-1903), was a merchant in Eureka and a friend of the rancher. He was elected to office as a member of the Silver Party, a short-lived and little known political party that was a product of depressed economic conditions that adversely affected farmers throughout the nation and the metal mining industry of the western states. Sadler was known for his qualities of character, strength, daring and good judgment. It is generally conceded that he was the best business governor Nevada has ever had.
The Brown Ranch is just a couple of miles from the Sadler Ranch and because of the close proximity, it is conveniently located. The Brown is a well-balanced ranch that has two wells that run two pivots, multiple wheel lines as well as numerous hand lines,
The Eureka community continues to perpetuate the ranching and mining lifestyles that it has always enjoyed. The county is financially sound as a result .of recent mining booms, and has invested substantial funds into new schools and .other public facilities. Residents of Eureka all seem to be neighbors. This is a place to take a step back in time.
Diamond Valley's high elevation and dry desert environment is conducive to producing premium quality dairy hay. The cool nights and moderate days during the growing season allow the hay to grow slowly. This is the primary reason for the area's superior quality alfalfa. Diamond Valley hay has excellent color, texture, and aroma and is found highly palatable by dairy cows.

LOCATION
The Sadler/ Brown headquarters is located in Diamond Valley approximately 30 miles north of Eureka via Highway 278 and take the Sadler Brown exit on the County gravel road. There is some shopping in Eureka, and major shopping is available in Elko, 86 miles to the north.

WATER
The Sadler is irrigated from numerous springs including the free flowing Shipley Hot Spring has an approximate flow rate of 2,800 gallons per minute. The spring has been studied for many years and has logged flows of 2,000 - 3,700 g. p. m. The average is 2,800. The Sadler is irrigated entirely by free-flowing spring water.
The USDA did a study on the pond and found that it may be possible to run three pivots from the amount of flow from the pond.
The Shipley Hot Spring water is warm and never freezes. Not only is there no ice chipping in the winter, the cattle hydrate themselves easier in the winter months by drinking the warm water. It also generates voluminous aquatic life including goldfish, catfish and bullfrogs. This area also attracts the following fowl: chuckar, sage grouse, ducks, geese, owls and occasionally bald eagles.
The ranch with its abundance of water and feed also attracts mule deer. In the last few years, we have obtained two landowner tags.
The Brown has two irrigation wells that furnish water to two pivots, several wheel and multiple hand lines. It also supplies water to the grazing livestock in the area.
The range provides plenty of water from creeks and natural springs to the grazing livestock and the abundance of wildlife.

Hay Barn: We have excavated a site and poured a cement pad on the Brown to erect a metal hay bam. All of the materials that are needed to build the barn are on site. It just needs to be erected. When finished it should hold approximately 1500 tons of hay.
Corrals: A major part of corrals and working pens have been replaced in recent years with heavy gage steel. They are in excellent condition and include a crowding: alley, loading chute and a heavy-duty squeeze chute. Also included, is a Fairbanks Morse ten-ton scale with a scale cage that is certified yearly. The scale and cage is in a steel overhang enclosure to keep it out of the weather.

OWNER'S STATEMENT
The Sadler/Brown is a well-balanced ranch in a convenient location. It has easy access to town and is far enough off traveled roads to minimize the effects of people. The region is renowned for its ability to produce calves economically and consistently. The feed is strong and there is plenty of water.
The ranch has a nice mixture of meadows and alfalfa that allow operating choices of feeding or selling excess hay. Water is assured every year as the Brown has two agricultural wells and the tests on the Sadler's spring show good flows for each year.
The abundance of free water is truly a sight to behold on this ranch. In addition to the many springs on the range, the Shipley Hot Spring is a natural marvel for its production and aesthetic beauty situated -as it is in the semi-arid high desert of Diamond Valley. The ranch has many other aesthetic qualities including plentiful wildlife, aquatic life in the pond, and historical ties to the Pony Express and Governor Sadler.
We are proud of this special Nevada ranch and have truly enjoyed the time we have spent there. It has always been a ranch near and dear to our hearts and we are confident that a new owner will be pleased.
