La Mojosa Ranch, located in central Frio County, is a spectacular opportunity for the next owner to develop a ranch to meet their objectives related to wildlife and agriculture. The ranch has the bones necessary to achieve a variety of objectives. With sandy loam soils, areas of diverse brush and trees, some open pasture and brush areas with a motted feel and outstanding water resources, this ranch has the ability to become an excellent hunting property and cattle operation. Few places combine quail, dove, deer and turkey opportunities as well as the La Mojosa Ranch. With great elevations on the ranch providing beautiful views, there are plenty of opportunities to build a dream ranch home for your family and friends.

The ranch entrance is located a little over 4 miles east southeast of Pearsall with access (and 4 existing entrances) off of CR 3000 (6,400 of frontage), a paved county road. Drive time from San Antonio is 1 hour; from Austin is 2.5 hours and Houston is less than 4 hours.
TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT
The red dirt sandy loam soils on the ranch provide the foundation necessary to produce high-quality forage and browse for wildlife and livestock alike.
The ranch has rolling topography with elevations ranging from about 580 to 712 which is significant for the area. Bull mesquites and live oaks are found in areas of the ranch. The ranch exhibits areas of heavy brush, areas of more open (almost motted) brush and some areas of more open pasture.
WILDLIFE
Wildlife populations include native white-tailed deer, northern bobwhite quail, Rio Grande turkey, dove and migratory waterfowl for excellent and diverse hunting opportunities. The ranch has not been hunted in many years and wildlife is abundant.
White-tailed deer are very numerous. The ranch has not been hunted in recent years and the age classes appear to be in great shape with some very nice and mature bucks seen on our visits to the ranch.
Dove hunting in this area is well revered due to the agriculture in the immediate area.
The sandy red dirt soils create an excellent habitat for northern bobwhite quail; the ranchs more open or motted area provides opportunity to hunt the birds with pointers! Numerous coveys of quail were seen on our visits to the ranch.
Plenty of turkeys were seen as well and the Pearsall area is known for having good numbers of the birds.
AGRICULTURE
The owner has been using the ranch as part of their cow-calf operations recently. There are several cross-fenced pastures, a set of pens and distributed water.
Portions of the ranch have been used for growing coastal hay in the past.
IMPROVEMENTS
The ranch is modestly improved with a small managers house, mostly five-strand fencing with much of it new (there is a small portion high fenced along a farming neighbor), cross fencing, cattle working pens, an equipment barn (in need of some roof repair) and a few other outbuildings.
WATER
The ranchs location over the Carrizo Wilcox (major) and Queen City (minor) aquifers provides groundwater access. With the groundwater availability, a future owner of La Mojosa might consider putting in a pivot(s) to enhance the ranch from either a recreational or production standpoint.
The ranch has three water wells that are currently operational and being used. All three are electric.
The southeastern well is a Carrizo Wilcox irrigation well that we understand has a 25-horsepower pump. This well and its valve manifolds provide water via 8 irrigation pipe to three dirt tanks utilized by livestock and wildlife on that portion of the ranch.
The other two wells provide trough water for livestock/wildlife as well as water to the house. These two wells have a looped distribution system to provide redundancy in case of emergency.
ELECTRICITY
Power is available throughout much of the ranch.
MINERALS
This offering is surface only. There is no production on the ranch. A portion of the mineral estate is available for sale in a separate transaction.
EASEMENTS
There are a couple of pipeline easements that cross the ranch.
TAXES
The open space of the property benefits from 1D1 Agricultural use tax valuation.
