15 of 28 submersible wells with ‘Pitless Adapters’ run 3/4 hp and 1 hp electric pumps. They push water into 1.5 inch PVC line that push it into a 6 inch line that supplies the irrigation pivot with 200 gallons per minute. There are 3 main disconnect breaker boxes on these wells. The wells are maintained by Aqua Pump (Von Tuttle), Gove, Ks. The 6 tower Reinke pivot waters 52 acres. The pivot is powered by a 3 phase electric converter drive. The pivot had new hose drops in 2023 and new electric box covers at each tower. A map showing the locations of the 15 wells is on our website bigiron.com.

There are 4 cattle pens (200 X 200 ft) with excellent east slop drainage, concrete bunks with concrete pads for cattle to stand on. The pens are constructed of welded 2 & 3/8 oil field pipe.  The pens and loading chute are located southeast of the headquarter buildings. A nice pond is west of the pivot. In 2024 the operation produced wheat, feed, oats, irrigated milo and leased the grass.
