Astute readers are spotting a trend! Agricultural authorities, financial industry journalists and monitoring organizations are all writing about the value of investing in farmland. Why? Agricultural industry researcher and journalist Robin O’Donoghue [1]. explains, “Demand for food is increasing. Population growth combined with increasing global affluence is having a dramatic impact. World demand for food is expected to double between now and 2050.”

Over 40% of Bulgaria’s workforce and nearly 50% of Romania’s workforce is devoted to farming.
For Fortune Magazine in June, 2009, senior editor Brian O’Keefe [2]. pointed out how this trend is escalating. “Over the past few years, hedge fund gurus like George Soros, investment powerhouses like BlackRock, and retirement plan giants like TIAA-CREF have begun plowing money into farmland.” In the same article, European financial wizard Lord Jacob Rothschild added, ”We’re surely going to have an inflationary situation fairly soon. Owning a hard asset like land is a good hedge.” And in conclusion, commodities guru Jim Rogers added that he is ”convinced that farmland is going to be one of the best investments of our time.”
