(NDAgConnection.com) – Farmland in the Midwest is still going for record amounts. In Plymouth County, Iowa, a new record was set to the tune of $26,250 per acre.

The parcel included 55 acres of high-quality farmland, according to Brock Auction Company, which managed the sale. That means the total bill was $1.44 million.

The tracts included 53.8 cropland acres with a 27.11-acre corn base with a 176 bu. PLC Yield index and a 25.74-acre soybean base with a 53 bu. PLC Yield index. The Plymouth County assessor and NRCS office show the main soil types to be Galva with some Primghar and Colo. The farm carries a CSR II weighted average of 91.7 with almost 80% of the farm at 95 CSR II.

This sale now holds record for a highest price. It tops the sale from August, when a Sioux County, Iowa, farm sold for $26,000 per acre.
