Farmland will become one of the great investments of our time

Jim Rogers : “I own all commodities, but I own agriculture most of all,”

. “Agriculture is in the worst shape of all commodities in terms of adequate supply.” One reason is that “we're running low on farmers. How many young people do you know who want to become farmers?”

. And even if farmers were not in shorter supply, population growth is reducing the amount of arable land at the same time it is increasing the demand for food and fiber,

As a result, “farmland will become one of the great investments of our time.” - in Marketwatch
