Description

The Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks seeks a permittee to conduct agricultural production on approximately 220 acres at the Francis Wachs Wildlife Area. Bidders must submit an annual cash-rent amount per production acre. The acreage and planned crops may vary by year; anticipated crops include winter wheat and milo, with other crops possible at the manager’s request. The permittee must follow annual permit conditions, including restrictions on tillage and planting, approved herbicide use, noxious weed control, crop-stubble requirements, and maintaining access for agricultural equipment. Additional custom farming services may also be requested on department-managed acres. The initial term is January 1, 2027, through December 31, 2027, with three additional 36-month renewal periods possible by mutual consent, for a maximum term of 10 years. The award is based on the highest annual cash rent per acre. The bid package requires a technical proposal, a separate cost sheet, specified certifications and forms, and a current Tax Clearance Certificate.
