Bill and Desiree Moore built Kelly-Moore Paint Company into the largest privatelyowned paint company in the United States. Their focus, unwavering attention to detail, and work ethic also drove them to assemble the Broken O Ranch. Located along the Sun River near Augusta, Montana, the Ranch contains the largest irrigated farming operation in Montana and one of the top commercial cattle operations in the Rocky Mountain West. Situated 45 miles northwest of Great Falls and east of the stunning Rocky Mountain Front, the Broken O Ranch encompasses approximately 124,000 total acres of which about 108,571 are deeded, about 15,270 are leased from the State of Montana, and 160 acres are subject to a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lease. The Ranch is undoubtedly one of the most grand and significant ranches of the Rocky Mountain West. Over 20 miles of the beautiful Sun River flow through the heart of the Ranch, offering prime irrigation benefits as well as amazing recreational assets. The Ranch may be one of the largest and most diverse Ranches to come on the U.S. land market in decades. With his beloved wife Desiree, Bill Moore spent twenty years assembling this massive land holding. Spread across Lewis & Clark, Cascade and Teton Counties, the Ranch was carefully shaped and improved to create this productive enterprise. The expansive cattle and farming operations are well positioned to capitalize on the growing global demand for beef and grains. The Broken O currently carries about 3,500 mother cows plus about 800 replacement heifers and 175 range bulls. With the devastating drought conditions being experienced in the Southwest, cattle inventories continue to erode. Record calf prices and increased beef demand make this productive operation a must see for an agricultural investor looking for solid returns. INTRODUCTION 1 Sixty-eight center pivots irrigate about 11,600 acres with an additional 1,517 acres under wheel-line and flood irrigation, historically producing 25,000 tons of alfalfa hay and about 700,000 bushels of small-grain crops annually. This extensive farming component allows for flexibility in commodity production to address the burgeoning global markets. The 3,000- to 5,000-head commercial feedlot allows the Ranch to adjust to cattle markets and provides a solid revenue stream by feeding out between 2,000 and 3,000 head of contract calves annually. The well-designed cattle handling facilities, livestock auction barn and feed mill provide maximum operational flexibility. They are well built and appear to be in excellent operating condition. In addition to the extensive agricultural production, the Broken O possesses outstanding recreational amenities. The Sun River corridor provides exceptional brown and rainbow trout fishing, antelope, whitetail and mule deer hunting, as well as abundant upland game bird and waterfowl populations. According to the Fall 2011 issue of The Land Report, the next owner of the Broken O Ranch would take an immediate position as the eighty-ninth largest land owner in the United States. An iconic designation within our nation’s esteemed fraternity of landowners. The Ranch is being offered turn-key including all livestock, hay and grain inventories at the time of sale, plus machinery and equipment for $132,500,000 cash.
