Jeremy and the professor are joined today by both Brandon and Nora as they discuss their views on the economy, inflation and what’s happening to farmland. Brandon tells us that inflation isn’t expected to affect agriculture in the way it has affected the Feds. They discuss the bond market and why future cycles are looking so positive, and what’s involved in purchasing and investing in farms. Both Brandon and Nora give us an in depth look into the farming industry and how it ties into the market, how crop yields play a role, and how they choose which farms to invest in. They also give us a view into the future of the farming industry and new technology that could improve the industry as a whole, and talk about the difficulties of finding reliable labor and replacing humans with machines.
