Against this backdrop, good agricultural land is becoming more valuable and top farmers are in demand – those who can improve yields, use less water and show that they are environmentally aware.
The Global Sustainable Farmland Income Trust is designed to give investors access to productive farmland and pioneering farmers around the world.
The first of its kind, the trust is expected to deliver total returns of 7-8 per cent a year, including dividends and capital growth.
Eh?
The land’ll have to be pretty cheap to start with, won’t it?
