Farmland investment has been gaining interest and headlines of late as commodity prices, inflation and volatility in all markets have been on the rise. Over the last 20 to 30 years, farmland has become a sophisticated asset class, serving as an inflation hedge and a portfolio diversification with low correlation to stocks and a negative correlation to many bonds as well as some tax advantages over other asset classes. But farmland and its markets are also less transparent and liquid than stocks and have current and future values driven by secondary international commodity markets, geography, soils, water availability, climate, cropping options and size of tenant pools, just to name a few factors. As much as 70% of farmland is expected to change hands in the next 20 years so the opportunities are vast, but specialized knowledge is required.
