Create a startup in reasearch and development of fully autonomous robotic electrical helicopters with swappable batteries and shiny plush seats for the passengers etc.pp. Collect huge venture capital for it.

Don't forget to brag about your $1 salary!

Go broke after 3 years with a shrug.

Rent that land for some nice money to your startup as a test airfield.

If you build it

They will come

Land is one of the few things you can just sit on and it's guaranteed to gain value, they're not making any more of it, as a matter of fact we're losing it to climate change with desertification and rising sea levels.

If it's farmable land I would rent it out to a farmer and make some extra cash, and if at any point you need some money you can always sell a few acres, otherwise it would be better than any amount of Cold hard Cash to hand down to any children you may have.

We really need forestland to bind C-atoms from the Co2 in our air. That would be the most heroic approach. Also wholesome since it creates habitat.

forest management resulting in slow money

Be a farmer. Don't try to profit off of landholding - that's for leeches. You don't want to be a leech, do you?

Is there water access on the property? Potential for drilling a well?

Without a steady source of water, farming is problematic.

Looks like a whole lot of nothing. Farming is the only thing you can do if even that

Rewild it with native flora, do yurts and whatever to attract people to live in a sustainable way with community gardening. Activities can initially revolve around returning the land to a more natural state. As things mature people will invest in the community themselves, creating their own activities etc.

No answer here, just wanted to say you inadvertently wrote one of the most interesting geolocation challenges I've seen.

You bought a bunch of land with no plan for it??

It looks like it’s been farmed recently. I don’t know what the growing season there is, you might be too late to start this year, but if you can lease it to a farmer for this season that at least has the land be productive while you figure out your longer-term plan. That way you can put plans in place to start work when the growing season is finished.

Leasing it to a farmer seems like the obvious choice. I'm not sure digital nomads would be all that interested in working in the middle of a field.

I'd love to see land like this returning to nature with native vegetation, but that would take a really long time and doesn't come with an obvious path to making a profit. Unless you sell it to developers for a higher price in a few years, of course.

It's my field of fucks I have left to give. Where did you find it?

Did you ever see the movie Holes (2003)?

For now? Lease as much of that land as you can. Cover crop the rest. You do not want bare, tilled soil sitting there for a year+ as you figure out bigger plans.

How close are you to high voltage transmission lines? This might be good for an commercial sized solar farm.

Plant some dang trees for starters, unless it's only going to be land used for farming.

What about a campsite?

No yoghurt weaving digital nomad yoga shite.

Just a plain old campsite that people can stay on with their campervans, caravans, tents etc

You'd probably need a shower and toilet at least.

Does leasing the land pay enough to make it worthwhile? Gives you time to think.

If it's fertile land you should probably use it, or lease it, to grow food.

Farming is not easy. Until you learnt to be good at it you'll put in a lot of hours into making not much money after costs have been paid.

Hey... You want to make a bit of money...? You should do what I did, get into Farming...

Did you check that you're actually allowed to build and live there? Depending on where that is (i guess left out on purpose), you can't simply decide to build a house in a field.

Dirt farming

In the short term, leasing to a farmer isn't a bad idea. It looks like a lot of your tentative plans will take time and money, so a short term land rental might be a good idea.
