About this file

Written by GovTribe AI ·

This document is an attachment to an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for a farm lease contract issued by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources for agricultural farming services on state-owned property within the Shelbyville State Fish and Wildlife Area, located in Moultrie County, Illinois. The cropping plan details the required actions, including planting specifications and crop rotations, for approximately 102 acres of farmland over a 4-year lease term from 2024 to 2027. The plan prohibits certain pesticide usage, requires cover cropping on designated fields, and mandates that a portion of corn and soybean crops be left standing for wildlife. Lessee adherence to the cropping plan is a critical requirement, and non-compliance may result in termination of the lease.

The lease payments are based on the agreed per-acre rate, and the State reserves the right to require the lessee to leave all or a portion of the crops unharvested. There are no set-asides or incumbent information provided. Funding sources are not specified, but the lease terms indicate the State's interest in managing the land for both agricultural and wildlife habitat purposes.
