Farmland Is Now a Hot Commodity<\/h1>\n

Across the Midwest, farmland prices are rapidly climbing, fueled by a recent rally in grain markets and low interest rates, The Wall Street Journal<\/em> reports. Prices are rising even higher than the previous farm boom about a decade ago.<\/p>\n

Farmland values increased during 2020 as higher grain prices buoyed revenue for farmers. Land prices in the region that covers parts of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, and Wisconsin saw a 6% increase last year, which marks the largest hike since 2012, according to the Federal Reserve Banks.<\/p>\n

Prices for farmland are expected to continue to rise this year. A recent survey of Iowa farmland specialists conducted by the Iowa chapter of the REALTORS\u00ae Land Institute shows average farmland values were up nearly 8% since September.<\/p>\n

Farmers eager to cash in are selling parcels of land, leading to an investor shopping spree. Large farmers dominate among owners of the nation\u2019s 900 million acres of farmland. Seventy-five percent of cropland in the U.S. is controlled by about 13% of the nation\u2019s farmers. Smaller farmers are finding it more difficult to afford a down payment on land parcels or compete for land leases, the Journal <\/em>reports.<\/p>\n

Indeed, competition is fierce as supply for farmland remains low. U.S. farmland has decreased by 25%\u2014or 305 million acres\u2014since 1950, according to USDA data. Investors are scooping up farmland: Pension and hedge fund companies view it as a lucrative alternative to stocks and bonds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
