About This Property

Whether you're an established crawfish farmer looking to expand your operation or someone ready to get into the crawfish business for the first time, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for. This turnkey 52.45-acre property in the Grand Prairie community of St. Landry Parish is set up, ready to go, and priced to move.

The infrastructure is already in place — an updated control box delivers power to the large electric motor that drives the well used to flood the property. Control structures built into the levees, along with strategically placed drains, make water management straightforward and efficient. Everything has been designed for operational ease, whether you're running the farm yourself or managing it as part of a larger operation.

Location matters in this business, and Grand Prairie is prime crawfish country. You won't have far to go to sell your catch, with established buyers and markets in the area. When you factor in the true cost of buying raw land, constructing ponds, building levees, and drilling a well from scratch, the value of acquiring a turnkey property like this one becomes immediately clear — especially for those new to the industry.
