So if Brazil ever gets its act together these high land prices could be a distant memory.
That idea has been discussed with some of the investors that I've spoke to in regards to land investment, with a specific investor from Omaha that's already heavily invested in railroads now. They seem to think that there's more growth or long-term profit potential in that type of investment. The gist of farmland investment is that it's too late because prices are at or near peak, along with long-term returns or trends. Housing has better and steadier returns over a long period averaging from 8%-13%, excluding short-term roll overs.
