This is How Jim Rogers Invests in Agriculture

Stock markets in agriculture-producing countries should do better than those in agriculture-importing ones. Retailers, restaurants, banks in agricultural areas will do well. Buy a vacation home on a lake in Iowa, not Massachusetts. And there are listed indexes like the RJA or the RGRA.

The RGRA is the RBS Rogers Enhanced Agriculture ETN]. - in a recent interview with Barron's
