Interesting "historical" numbers.

It appears fcc and rhe gov if Canada have a mandate of less farmers and more farms owned by Non farmers. I don’t know about other areas but mega farms built in last 5 years around here and some no one even knows who really owns them.

As interest rates fall, asset prices will rise. The trend in farmland values, especially since 2008, fits this pattern perfectly. It will be interesting to see what mayhem occurs when interest rates go negative across the board.

Have we ever been there before?

Who knows where we're headed when central bank's rudders break and fall off.

Rough seas, uncharted waters, might sink.

Loss of control?

Out of options?

What comes after negative interest rates?

I think the party is over...

You see andejilic land for sale ( the largest landowner in saskatchewan) and other large packages being sold by Toronto investor groups...

What comes after negative interest rates?

The end result of negative interest is a currency collapse. The division of labor starts going into reverse and a subsistence economy emerges. Of course, a subsistence economy can't sustain the population we have today. So one hopes that gold returns to its proper role as money.

Before covid, I would have said that too, but after seeing our govts print up trillions and hammer rates down to 025%, history tells me that is simulative for the time being and will go somewhere usually into hard assets.

Farmers are going to be sucked into the vortex of paying high land prices.....

when the investors who enjoyed parabolic appreciation cash out.

Boy is it easy to get off topic.

Is high priced land a bad thing?

There are many other cost contributors, and income that impact the bottom line. It’s a component, don’t be blinded or focus on that one line item.

When looking at the chart is there any past year where you would have made a bad vestment buying land?

Over what time frame?

Any time between 1980 and 1986. Many went deep into debt and didn't last till the 90's
