How We Invest

  • Macro View

    We take into account climate change, water availability, structural regional trends, regulatory landscapes, and long-term trends in improvement in agricultural yields.

  • End-Market Analysis

    We dive deep into the end markets for the farm products we target to determine how long-term trends in the industry may influence end prices.

  • Property Analysis

    We incorporate 150 data sets from public, private and proprietary data sources when analyzing properties. We also apply our proprietary technology to zero in on high-quality off-market opportunities.

  • Due Diligence

    Our 105-point due diligence checklist includes soil, leaf, water, capital improvements, title, local legislation, depth of the supporting farming ecosystem, cost of inputs, farmworker wages, and more.

Acquisition Criteria

Soil quality is a fundamental determinant of farmland productivity and therefore of its value. In considering farmland for purchase, we take soil quality into consideration to determine whether the farmland is attractively priced. In general, we focus on farmland with average or better-than-average soil.
