Quitman County Delta Farm, 344 Acres, Listed for $1.76 Million
A 344-acre Delta farm just outside Marks hit the market March 18 asking $1.76 million, with 284 tillable acres and a 12-season lease already in place.

A working Delta farm two and a half miles southwest of Marks came onto the market this week carrying a $1,760,000 asking price and a production history that stretches back more than a decade under a single operator.
The property, marketed as the "Quitman 344," spans 344 acres along Section 5 Road and Airport Road in Quitman County. Of that total, 284.3 acres are designated tillable by the Farm Service Agency. The soil runs predominantly Class III Forestdale Silty Clay Loam in a nearly level phase, a classification the listing describes as "well known for Delta row-crop production."
Water infrastructure sets this tract apart from many comparable Delta listings. The farm is nearly 100% irrigated by five wells: four diesel engine-driven and one electric. That network covers the bulk of the tillable ground and would transfer to a new owner along with the land.
The farm has been leased to the same operator for 12 consecutive farming seasons and is running under a year-to-year lease for 2026. Lease details are available through the listing agent upon request. The continuity of a single tenant across more than a decade suggests stable, actively managed ground rather than idle acreage.
Access is paved on all sides. The property has entrances along both the east and west sides of Airport Road and on the north and south sides of Section 5 Road. Buyers arriving from Marks can reach the site from the intersection of Highway 3 and Airport Road by traveling 2.3 miles west; the property sits on the left. Coordinates for the parcel are 34.2385, -90.3175.

The listing carries two parcel numbers: 930050000000001 and 93005000000000101. The 2025 property tax bill came to $6,003.85. The listing is active under ID 4142792.
Listing agent Michael Oswalt, ALC, of SmallTown Hunting Properties and Real Estate out of Flora, Mississippi, is handling the sale. The property is posted across multiple land-sale platforms including FarmFlip, LandAndFarm, BedfordRealty, AuctionFlip, CommercialFlip, and LandThink.
