You should have asked this question BEFORE you bought the land. Sounds like pure speculation to me.
Have you been to this place and seen it with your own eyes? What economic activities prevail in the area? grazing for cattle or sheep? how close is the nearest residential development? 50 miles? highway frontage? hunting?
Why are you asking us???
West Texas is a huge place, with several hundred thousand square miles of NOTHING. a lot of it is really beautiful, but isn’t even grazable.

Go catch crickets and worms and sell them to bait shops. Grow hay and sell it. If its near the freeway, have a sign company come out and put a big billboard up and you should get some monthly income from them.
Question, Do you own mineral rights? I doubt that you do. Most of west texas has had mineral rights sold off along time ago. Also grazing and hunting rights may have been sold off also.
Check to see what you actually own there.
