Farmland's Long Term Return Beats Stocks & Bonds | Craig Wichner

Here's how to invest in it

One of the asset classes I get the most requests to do an interview on is farmland.

It's a form of real estate investment that yields cash flow by producing commodities -- all attractive qualities to investors worried about inflation and/or the loss of purchasing power of fiat currencies.

But how does it perform vs other asset classes?

And how does one invest in farmland without being forced to become a farmer?

For answers, we're fortunate to talk today with Craig Wichner, Managing Member of Farmland LP, which manages over 15,000 acres, farming them sustainably at scale.

Craig brings a parade of charts breaking down how farmland’s returns compare (very favorably) to other investments like stocks & bonds.

And he also explains the pros & cons of the various ways investors can gain access to this asset class.
