Pecans, pasture and the San Saba River

San Saba serves as both seat of government and biggest town, and the county was organized in 1856. It sits in the Llano Basin region of Central Texas on about 1,136 square miles, with steep to rolling ground north of the San Saba River and flatter land to the south. Shallow, stony clays and sandy loam are common here.^[1]

USDA farm census figures for 2022 show 865 farms on roughly 723,000 acres, and about 600,000 of those acres are pastureland. Aerial application suits broken, stony or hilly acreage where driving ground equipment is slow, and it does not need to cross soft or steep ground.^[2]

Common questions from San Saba County landowners

Can you apply products on my land in San Saba County?

Yes. San Saba County is one of the Texas counties we currently serve. Call (256) 590-3869 and tell us how the ground lies.

Is rough, rocky ground a problem for aerial application?

Rough ground is one of the reasons landowners consider the air. An aircraft does not care about stony soil, creek bottoms or uneven slopes, so it can cover ground that is slow or hard on equipment.

My place is just over the county line. Can you still help?

Possibly. Our list of counties keeps growing, so give us a call and we will sort it out together.
