                                    PART I

Item 1. Business

The Registrant, Inland Land Appreciation  Fund II, L.P. (the "Partnership"), is
a limited partnership formed on June 28, 1989, pursuant to the Delaware Revised
Uniform Limited Partnership Act, to  invest  in undeveloped land on an all-cash
basis and realize appreciation of such  land  upon resale. On October 25, 1989,
the Partnership commenced an Offering of 30,000 (subject to increase to 60,000)
Limited  Partnership  Units  ("Units")  at  $1,000  per  Unit,  pursuant  to  a
Registration Statement on  Form  S-11  under  the  Securities  Act  of 1933. On
October 24, 1991, the Partnership terminated  its Offering of Units, with total
sales of 50,476.17 Units, at $1,000 per Unit, resulting in $50,476,170 in gross
offering proceeds, not including the  General Partner's capital contribution of
$500. All of the holders of these  Units have been admitted to the Partnership.
Inland Real Estate Investment Corporation  is  the General Partner. The Limited
Partners of  the  Partnership  will  share  in  their  portion  of  benefits of
ownership of  the  Partnership's  real  property  investments  according to the
number of Units held.  As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership has repurchased
a total of 291.65 Units for  $288,360 from various Limited Partners through the
Unit Repurchase  Program.  Under  this  program,  Limited  Partners  may, under
certain circumstances, have  their  Units  repurchased  for  an amount equal to
their Invested Capital.

The Partnership  is  engaged  in  the  business  of  real  estate investment. A
presentation of information about industry segments would not be material to an
understanding of the Partnership's business taken as a whole.

The  Partnership  acquired  fee  ownership   of  the  following  real  property
investments:

Reference is made to Note 4  of  the  Notes  to Financial Statements (Item 8 of
this Annual  Report)  for  additional  descriptions  of  the Partnership's real
property investments.

The Partnership had purchased  on  an  all-cash  basis, twenty-seven parcels of
undeveloped land and two buildings and is engaged in the rezoning and resale of
the remaining  parcels.  All  of  the  investments  were  made  in  the Chicago
metropolitan area. The anticipated holding  period of the land is approximately
two to seven years from the  completion  of the land portfolio acquisitions. As
of December 31,  1996,  the  Partnership  has  had  multiple sales transactions
through which it has disposed  of  approximately 898 acres of the approximately
4,480 acres originally owned.


                                      -4-


The General Partner anticipates  that  land  purchased  by the Partnership will
produce  sufficient  income  to   pay   property  taxes,  insurance  and  other
miscellaneous expenses. Income will  be  derived  through  leases to farmers or
from other activities  compatible  with  undeveloped  land.  A  majority of the
parcels purchased by the  Partnership  consist  of land which generates revenue
from  farming  or  other  leasing  activities.  It  is  not  expected  that the
Partnership will generate cash distributions  to  investors from farm leases or
other activities.

The Partnership had no employees during 1996.

The terms of transactions between the Partnership and Affiliates of the General
Partner of the Partnership are set  forth  in  Item  11 below and Note 3 of the
Notes to Financial Statements (Item 8 of this Annual Report) to which reference
is hereby made for a description of such terms and transactions.


Item 2. Properties

The Partnership owns directly the parcels of  land referred to in Item 1 and in
Note 4 of the Notes to Financial  Statements  (Item 8 of this Annual Report) to
which reference is hereby made for a description of said parcels.


Item 3. Legal Proceedings

The Partnership is not subject to any material pending legal proceedings.


Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

There were no matters submitted to a vote of security holders during 1996.



                                    PART II


Item 5. Market for  the  Partnership's  Limited  Partnership  Units and Related
        Security Holder Matters

As of December 31, 1996, there were  5,041 holders of Units of the Partnership.
There is no public  market  for  Units  nor  is  it anticipated that any public
market for Units will develop.

Although the Partnership has established  a  Unit Repurchase Program, funds for
the repurchase of Units  are  limited.  Reference  is  made to "Unit Repurchase
Program" on pages 19-20 of the  Prospectus of the Partnership dated October 25,
1989, which is incorporated herein by  reference.  As of December 31, 1996, the
Partnership had approximately $294,800 available for the repurchase of Units.

Item 7.  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial  Condition  and
         Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Certain statements in this  "Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of  Operations"  and  elsewhere  in this annual report on
Form 10-K constitute  "forward-looking  statements"  within  the meaning of the
Federal Private Securities  Litigation  Reform  Act  of  1995.   These forward-
looking statements involve  known  and  unknown  risks, uncertainties and other
factors which  may  cause  the  Partnership's  actual  results, performance, or
achievements to be materially  different  from any future results, performance,
or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These
factors include,  among  other  things,  federal,  state  or local regulations;
adverse changes in general economic  or local conditions; uninsured losses; and
potential conflicts of  interest  between  the  Partnership and its Affiliates,
including the General Partner.

On October 25, 1989, the  Partnership  commenced an Offering of 30,000 (subject
to increase to 60,000)  Limited  Partnership  Units  pursuant to a Registration
Statement on Form S-11 under the  Securities  Act of 1933. On October 24, 1991,
the Partnership terminated its Offering of Units, with total sales of 50,476.17
Units, at $1,000 per Unit, resulting in $50,476,170 in gross offering proceeds,
not including the General Partner's  capital  contribution  of $500. All of the
holders of these  Units  have  been  admitted  to  the Partnership. The Limited
Partners of  the  Partnership  will  share  in  their  portion  of  benefits of
ownership of  the  Partnership's  real  property  investments  according to the
number of Units held.

The Partnership used $41,314,301 of gross  offering proceeds to purchase, on an
all-cash basis, twenty-seven  parcels  of  undeveloped  land and two buildings.
These investments include the payment  of  the purchase price, acquisition fees
and acquisition costs of such  properties.  Three of the parcels were purchased
during 1990, sixteen during 1991, four during 1992, and four during 1993. As of
December 31, 1996, the Partnership  has had multiple sales transactions through
which it has disposed  of  approximately  898  acres of the approximately 4,480
acres originally owned. As of  December 31, 1996, cumulative distributions have
totaled $2,836,963 to the Limited Partners  and $93,034 to the General Partner.
Of the $2,836,963 distributed to the Limited Partners, $2,115,963 was net sales
proceeds (which represents a  return  of  Invested  Capital,  as defined in the
Partnership Agreement) and $721,000  was  from  operations.  As of December 31,
1996, the  Partnership  has  used  $6,019,039  of  working  capital reserve for
rezoning and other  activities.  Such  amounts  have  been  capitalized and are
included in investment properties.

The Partnership's capital needs and resources will vary depending upon a number
of factors, including the extent to which the Partnership conducts rezoning and
other  activities  relating  to  utility  access,  the  installation  of roads,
subdivision and/or annexation of land to a municipality, changes in real estate
taxes affecting the Partnership's land, and the amount of revenue received from
leasing. As of December 31, 1996,  the  Partnership  owns, in whole or in part,
twenty-four of its twenty-seven original  parcels  and one office building, the
majority of which are  leased  to  local  tenants and are generating sufficient
cash flow from leases to cover property taxes and insurance.




                                      -7-


At  December  31,  1996,  the   Partnership  had  cash,  cash  equivalents  and
investments in  marketable  securities  of  $6,136,831,  of which approximately
$294,800 is reserved for the  repurchase  of  Units through the Unit Repurchase
Program. The remaining $5,842,031 is  available  to be used for the Partnership
expenses and liabilities, cash  distributions  to partners and other activities
with respect to some  or  all  of  its  land  parcels. The Partnership plans to
maximize its parcel sales effort to realize appreciation of land values.

The Partnership plans to enhance the  value of its land through pre-development
activities such as rezoning, annexation  and land planning. The Partnership has
already been successful in, or  is  in the process of, pre-development activity
on a majority of the Partnership's  land  investments. Parcel 1, annexed to the
Village of Huntley and  zoned  for  residential and commercial development, has
improvements in  planning  stage  and  sites  are  being  marketed to potential
buyers. Parcel 7, annexed to the  Village of McHenry and zoned residential, has
improvements underway and  sites  are  being  marketed.  Sixty-five lots of the
total 130 single-family lots are  under  contract  (see  Note 6 of the Notes to
Financial Statements for sale  of  the  first  two  lots on February 12, 1997).
Parcel 18,  zoned  for  multi-  and  single-family  use,  is  being marketed to
potential homebuilders. Parcel 15 has been zoned with development and marketing
underway. Parcel 23, the Ponds at  Mill  Race Creek Subdivision, has 234 of the
total 243 single-family lots  under  contract  with  homebuilders, of which 112
have already closed  (see  Note  4  of  the  Notes  to Financial Statements for
further discussion on Parcel 23).

Results of Operations

Income from the sale of investment properties and cost of investment properties
sold recorded for the year  ended  December  31, 1996 result from the continued
lot sales at the Mill Race Creek Subdivision (Parcel 23), 5.538 acres of Parcel
22 and .87 acres of Parcel 8. As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership has sold
112 of the 243 single-family lots at  The Ponds of Mill Race Creek. Income from
the sale  of  investment  properties  and  cost  of  investment properties sold
recorded for the year ended December 31, 1995 result from the sales at the Mill
Race Creek  Subdivision  and  of  Parcel  25.  As  of  December  31,  1995, the
Partnership had sold seventy-four of the 243 single-family lots at The Ponds of
Mill Race Creek, in addition to the multi-family portion, The Winding Waters of
Mill Race Creek. Income  from  the  sale  of  investment properties and cost of
investment properties sold recorded for the year ended December 31, 1994 result
from the sale of ten acres  of  Parcel  22,  .258  acres of Parcel 6 and eleven
acres of Parcel 15.

















                                      -8-


As of December 31,  1996,  the  Partnership  owned  twenty-four parcels of land
consisting of  approximately  3,569  acres  and  one  office  building.  Of the
approximately 3,569 acres  owned,  3,094  acres  are  tillable, leased to local
farmers and generate sufficient  cash  flow  to cover property taxes, insurance
and other  miscellaneous  expenses.  The  decrease  in  rental  income and land
operating expenses to  Affiliates  for  the  year  ended  December 31, 1996, as
compared to the year ended December  31,  1995,  is  due to the decrease of the
land portfolio as a result  of  land  sales.  The decrease in rental income was
partially offset by the  annual  increase  in  lease amounts from tenants. Land
operating expenses to non-affiliates increased  for the year ended December 31,
1996, as compared to the year  ended  December  31, 1995, due to an increase in
assessments fees and grounds maintenance  relating  to Parcel 23. This increase
was partially offset by decreases in repair and maintenance, insurance and real
estate taxes. The increase in  rental  income  for  the year ended December 31,
1995, as compared to the year  ended  December  31,  1994, is due to the annual
increase in lease amounts from tenants. This increase was partially offset by a
decrease in rental income due  to  land  sales.  The decrease in land operating
expenses for the year ended December  31,  1995,  as compared to the year ended
December 31, 1994, is primarily  due  to  the decrease in asset management fees
and real estate taxes as a result of the land parcels being sold.

Interest income increased for the  years  ended  December 31, 1996 and 1995, as
compared  to  the  year  ended  December  31,  1994,  due  to  the  Partnership
replenishing its working capital reserve from  the sales at Parcels 23 and sale
of Parcel 25 and an increase in interest rates.

Professional services to Affiliates decreased  for  the year ended December 31,
1996, as compared to the year  ended  December  31,  1995, due to a decrease in
legal  and  accounting  services  required  by  the  Partnership.  Professional
services to Affiliates  increased  for  the  year  ended  December 31, 1995, as
compared to the year ended December  31,  1994, due primarily to an increase in
legal and other professional services required by the Partnership. Professional
services to non-affiliates increased for the  years ended December 31, 1996 and
1995, as compared to the year  ended  December  31, 1994, due to an increase in
legal and accounting fees.

General and administrative expenses to Affiliates decreased for the years ended
December 31, 1996 and 1995, as  compared  to  the year ended December 31, 1994,
due  primarily  to  a  decrease   in  data  processing  expenses.  General  and
administrative expenses to non-affiliates increased for the year ended December
31, 1996, as compared to the year  ended December 31, 1995, due primarily to an
increase in the Illinois Replacement Tax owed by the Partnership in 1996.

Marketing expenses to  Affiliates  decreased  for  the  year ended December 31,
1996, as compared to the year  ended  December  31, 1995, and increased for the
year ended December 31, 1995, as compared  to the year ended December 31, 1994,
due to  the  timing  of  expenses  relating  to  marketing  and advertising the
Partnership's land investments.  Marketing expenses to non-affiliates increased
for the year ended December 31,  1996,  as compared to the years ended December
31, 1995 and  1994,  due  to  the  timing  of  advertising  and travel expenses
relating to marketing the land portfolio to prospective purchasers.


Inflation

Inflation in future periods may cause capital appreciation of the Partnership's
investments in land.  Rental  income  levels  (from  leases  to  new tenants or
renewals of existing tenants)  will  rise  and  fall  in accordance with normal
agricultural market conditions and may or may not be affected by inflation.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Partners of 
Inland Land Appreciation Fund II, L.P. 

We have audited the  accompanying  balance  sheets  of Inland Land Appreciation
Fund II, L.P. (a limited partnership) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
related statements of operations, partners' capital, and cash flows for each of
the three years in the period  ended  December  31, 1996.  These statements are
the responsibility of the Partnership's  management.   Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. 

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards  require  that  we  plan  and  perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether  the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes  examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures  in  the financial statements.  An audit
also  includes  assessing  the   accounting  principles  used  and  significant
estimates made by  management,  as  well  as  evaluating  the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that  our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion,  such  financial  statements  present  fairly,  in all material
respects, the financial position of  Inland  Land Appreciation Fund II, L.P. as
of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and  the  results of its operations and its cash
flows for each of the three  years  in  the  period ended December 31, 1996, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                         Notes to Financial Statements

             For the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994


(1) Organization and Basis of Accounting

The Registrant, Inland Land Appreciation  Fund II, L.P. (the "Partnership"), is
a limited partnership formed on June 28, 1989, pursuant to the Delaware Revised
Uniform Limited Partnership Act, to  invest  in undeveloped land on an all-cash
basis and realize appreciation of such  land  upon resale. On October 25, 1989,
the Partnership commenced an Offering of 30,000 (subject to increase to 60,000)
Limited Partnership Units pursuant to  a  Registration under the Securities Act
of 1933.  The  Amended  and  Restated  Agreement  of  Limited  Partnership (the
"Partnership Agreement") provides for Inland Real Estate Investment Corporation
to be the General Partner. On  October 24, 1991, the Partnership terminated its
Offering of Units, with total  sales  of  50,476.17  Units, at $1,000 per Unit,
resulting in $50,476,170 in gross  offering proceeds, not including the General
Partner's capital contribution of $500. All  of the holders of these Units have
been admitted to the Partnership. As  of December 31, 1996, the Partnership has
repurchased a total of 291.65 Units  for $288,360 from various Limited Partners
through the Unit Repurchase Program.  Under this program, Limited Partners may,
under certain circumstances, have their  Units  repurchased for an amount equal
to their Invested Capital.

The preparation of financial  statements  in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires  management  to  make  estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts  of  assets  and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at  the  date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Deferred organization costs  were  amortized  over  a 60-month period. Offering
costs have been offset against the Limited Partners' capital accounts.

The Partnership  considers  all  highly  liquid  investments  purchased  with a
maturity of three months or  less  to  be  cash  equivalents and are carried at
cost, which approximates market.

Investments purchased with a maturity of three months or more are considered to
be  investments  in  marketable  securities  and  are  carried  at  cost, which
approximates market.

The Partnership adopted  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting Standards No. 121
"Accounting for the Impairment of  Long-Lived  Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
to be Disposed of" ("SFAS 121") as required in the first quarter of 1996.  SFAS
121 requires that the Partnership record  an impairment loss on its property to
be held for investment whenever  its  carrying  value cannot be fully recovered
through estimated undiscounted  future  cash  flows  from  their operations and
sale.  The  amount  of  the  impairment  loss  to  be  recognized  would be the
difference between the property's  carrying  value and the property's estimated
fair value.    The  adoption  of  SFAS  121  did  not  have  any  effect on the
Partnership's financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

                         Notes to Financial Statements
                                  (continued)


For  vacant  land  parcels   and   parcels  with  insignificant  buildings  and
improvements,  the  Partnership  uses  the  area  method  of  allocation, which
approximates the relative sales method of  allocation, whereby a per acre price
is used as the standard  allocation  method  for  land purchases and sales. The
total cost of the parcel is divided by the total number of acres to arrive at a
per acre price. For parcels with significant buildings and improvements (Parcel
24,  described  in  Note  4),   the   Partnership  records  the  buildings  and
improvements  at  a  cost  based  upon  the  appraised  value  at  the  date of
acquisition. Buildings and improvements are depreciated using the straight-line
method  of  depreciation  over  a  useful  life  of  thirty  years.  Repair and
maintenance  expenses  are  charged  to  operations  as  incurred.  Significant
improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

The Partnership is required to  pay  a  withholding tax to the Internal Revenue
Service with  respect  to  a  Partner's  allocable  share  of the Partnership's
taxable net income, if the  Partner  is  a foreign person. The Partnership will
first pay the withholding tax  from  the  distributions to any foreign partner,
and to the extent that the tax exceeds the amount of distributions withheld, or
if there have been no distributions  to  withhold, the excess will be accounted
for as a distribution to the foreign partner. Withholding tax payments are made
every April, June, September and December.

No provision for Federal income taxes  has  been made as the liability for such
taxes is that of the Partners rather than the Partnership.

The Partnership records are maintained  on  the  accrual basis of accounting in
accordance with generally accepted  accounting principles ("GAAP"). The Federal
income tax return has been prepared  from such records after making appropriate
adjustments, if any,  to  reflect  the  Partnership's  accounts as adjusted for
Federal income tax reporting purposes. Such adjustments are not recorded in the
records of the Partnership.  The  net  effect  of  these items is summarized as
follows:

                                  (continued)


(2) Partnership Agreement

The Partnership Agreement defines  the  allocation  of  profits and losses, and
available cash. If and  to  the  extent  that  real  estate taxes and insurance
payable with respect  to  the  Partnership's  land  during  a given year exceed
revenues of the  Partnership,  the  General  Partner  will  make a Supplemental
Capital Contribution of such amount  to  the  Partnership to ensure that it has
sufficient funds to make such payments.

Profits and losses from  operations  (other  than capital transactions) will be
allocated 99% to the Limited Partners  and  1%  to the General Partner. The net
gain from sales of Partnership properties is first allocated among the Partners
in proportion to the  negative  balances,  if  any, in their respective capital
accounts. Thereafter, except as provided  below,  net  gain is allocated to the
General Partner in an amount equal  to  the proceeds distributed to the General
Partner from such sale and  the  balance  of  any  net gain is allocated to the
Limited Partners. If the amount of net  gain  realized from a sale is less than
the amount of cash  distributed  to  the  General  Partner  from such sale, the
Partnership will allocate income or  gain  to  the General Partner in an amount
equal to the excess of the cash distributed to the General Partner with respect
to such sale as quickly as permitted by  law.  Any net loss from a sale will be
allocated to the Limited Partners.

Distributions of  Net  Sale  Proceeds  will  be  allocated  between the General
Partner and the Limited Partners based upon both an aggregate overall return to
the Limited Partners and a separate return  with respect to each parcel of land
purchased by the Partnership.

As a general rule, Net  Sale  Proceeds  will  be distributed 90% to the Limited
Partners and  10%  to  the  General  Partner  until  the  Limited Partners have
received from Net Sale Proceeds  (i)  a  return  of their Original Capital plus
(ii) a noncompounded  Cumulative  Preferred  Return  of  15%  of their Invested
Capital. However, with respect to  each  parcel  of land, the General Partner's
10% share will be subordinated until  the  Limited Partners receive a return of
the Original Capital attributed to such parcel ("Parcel Capital") plus a 6% per
annum noncompounded Cumulative Preferred Return thereon.

After the amounts described  in  items  (i)  and  (ii) above and any previously
subordinated distributions to  the  General  Partner  have  been  paid, and the
amount of  any  Supplemental  Capital  Contributions  have  been  repaid to the
General Partner, subsequent  distributions  shall  be  paid  75% to the Limited
Partners and 25% to the General Partner without considering Parcel Capital. If,
after all Net Sale  Proceeds  have  been  distributed,  the General Partner has
received more than 25%  of  all  Net  Sale Proceeds (exclusive of distributions
made to the Limited  Partners  to  return  their Original Capital), the General
Partner shall contribute to  the  Partnership  for  distribution to the Limited
Partners an amount equal to such excess.

Any distributions from Net Sales  Proceeds  at  a time when Invested Capital is
greater than zero shall be deemed  applied  first to reduction of such Invested
Capital before application to payment  of  any deficiency in the 15% Cumulative
Preferred Return.

(3) Transactions with Affiliates

The General  Partner  and  its  Affiliates  are  entitled  to reimbursement for
salaries and expenses of employees  of  the  General Partner and its Affiliates
relating to the administration of  the  Partnership. Such costs are included in
professional services to Affiliates and  general and administrative expenses to
Affiliates, of which $4,307 and $7,536  was  unpaid as of December 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively.

The General Partner is entitled to  receive Asset Management Fees equal to one-
quarter of 1% of  the  original  cost  to  the  Partnership of undeveloped land
annually, limited to a cumulative total over  the life of the Partnership of 2%
of the land's original cost to  the  Partnership. Such fees of $92,022, $98,391
and $101,281 have been incurred and paid for the years ended December 31, 1996,
1995 and 1994, respectively,  and  are  included  in land operating expenses to
Affiliates.

An  Affiliate  of  the  General  Partner  performed  marketing  and advertising
services of the Partnership's land investments and was reimbursed (as set forth
under term of the  Partnership  Agreement)  for  direct  costs.   Such costs of
$45,606, $77,784 and $44,886 have  been  incurred and are included in marketing
expenses to Affiliates for the  years  ended  December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively, of which $3,631 was unpaid as of December 31, 1995.

An Affiliate of  the  General  Partner  performed  property upgrades, rezoning,
annexation and other activities  to  prepare the Partnership's land investments
for sale and  was  reimbursed  (as  set  forth  under  terms of the Partnership
Agreement) for salaries and  direct  costs.  The  Affiliate did not recognize a
profit on any project. Such  costs  of  $50,828,  $17,828 and $30,655 have been
incurred and paid  for  the  years  ended  December  31,  1996,  1995 and 1994,
respectively, and are included in investment properties.

On September 28, 1994 and  November  18,  1994, the General Partner established
two separate letters of credit on behalf  of the Partnership with a third party
bank. These letters  of  credit  were  required  by  the  Village of Oswego for
construction  improvements  such  as   sewers,  roads,  curbs,  parkway  trees,
sidewalks and street lights on  Parcel  23.  The  letters of credit were in the
amounts  of  $1,036,487  and  $550,000  (subsequently  reduced  to  $209,328 on
December 2, 1994),  respectively,  and  were  fully  secured by certificates of
deposit. An  Affiliate  of  the  General  Partner,  Inland  Mortgage Investment
Corporation  ("IMIC"),  loaned  the  General  Partner  the  funds  necessary to
establish the letters of credit.  The  General  Partner paid IMIC interest at a
rate of prime +  1%.  During  August  1995,  the  Village of Oswego lowered the
required amounts of the letters of credit  to $607,500. On October 12, 1995, as
a result of  the  completion  of  construction  improvements  on Parcel 23, the
letters of credit required by the  Village of Oswego were released. The General
Partner's cost of funds, equal to the difference between the interest earned on
the certificates of deposit and  the  interest  paid to IMIC, was reimbursed to
the General Partner by  the  Partnership.  Such  interest, totaling $43,865 and
$14,191 for years ended December  31,  1995 and 1994, respectively, is included
in investment properties, all of which has been paid.

(5) Rental Income

The Partnership has determined that all leases relating to the farm parcels are
operating leases. Accordingly, rental income is reported when earned.

As of December 31, 1996, the  Partnership  had  leases of generally one year in
duration, for approximately 3,094 acres of the approximately 3,582 acres owned.


(6) Subsequent Events

During February 1997, the Partnership  sold  Lots  92  and  93 in the Olde Mill
Ponds on Boone Creek Subdivision (Parcel  7) to an unaffiliated third party for
a total of  $78,400.    The  cost  allocated  to  these  lots totalled $34,337,
resulting in a gain on sale of $43,550, net of closing costs.
