Agricultural Investment

Risks associated with agricultural investment may include following

1. Government farm and trade policies’ influence on investment economies;

2. Demand impact on commodity prices;

3. Currency fluctuations’ impact on sensitive exports;

4. Weather and other natural elements’ (e.g., unusual precipitation, damaging insects, and flooding) effects on crop yield and value;

5. Costs associated with long-term environmental and food safety issues;

6. Dependency on regional and local water supplies, as applicable;

7. Labor supply and demand factors related to agricultural operations;

8. Specialized nature of professional management; and

9. Stakeholder and consumer responses to industry practices (e.g., pesticide impacts on products, neighboring properties, and farm workers).
