FARMLAND MASTERCLASS

Our inaugural Farmland Masterclass will be held on Monday, January 11, at the Hilton Des Moines Downtown.

Why Farmland Works: A Simple Guide to a Strong Asset Class

The financial performance characteristics of U.S. farmland ownership are attractive for any investment portfolio. The challenge is that U.S. farmland is a highly diverse asset class that requires significant expertise to acquire, manage, and dispose. This farmland masterclass is assembled to help investors broaden their technical and financial knowledge of the asset class whether they are new to farmland or experienced farmland investors.

Peoples Company is proud to engage Dr. Bruce Sherrick and Dr. Craig Lemoine from the University of Illinois to support the farmland masterclass. The course will break down how agricultural production is distributed regionally across the U.S. and how different production systems create financial returns for the associated farmland assets. The course will also review the challenges, opportunities, and proven strategies for building farmland portfolios, developing and executing acquisition pipelines, and managing farmland assets to maximize financial returns.

The additional educational session on Monday may be selected during registration checkout.
