25 Farmland Investment The main driver pushing farmland prices upward is the increasing world grain area Higher demand for grains Combination of factors to make the new areas economically viable Not enough growth in productivity New areas in production Productivity Producing cost Commodity price Higher cash flow to all agricultural area Higher farmland prices New production areas have higher producing cost in $ per ton 25

26 Farmland price value drivers The main factor pushing farmland prices upward is the world production area increase Given that new areas have higher production cost (USD / Ton), the expansion on the world agricultural area requires a combination of factor (price, cost, productivity) capable to generate a positive cash flow to this newly opened areas. This same combination of factors should increase the earnings and, therefore, the farmland prices for agricultural area as a whole.
