Farm investing has a long history of generating strong financial results. The low correlation of farming returns with the returns of other classes means that agroforestry can provide diversification benefits within investor portfolios. Agroforestry investments may also offer moderate inflation protection.
As a nature-based solution, agroforestry can provide positive social and environmental benefits by sequestering carbon, maintaining biodiversity, and contributing to rural economic vitality. As the global population grows, demand for food and fiber is expected to increase. Investors can capitalize on this trend while also benefiting from opportunities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help mitigate climate change.
Investing in agroforestry can seem like a good strategic move. After all, whether the overall economy’s in a recession or booming, people still have to eat. Because of this, many investors regard agroforestry investments as being recession-proof. Further, as the world’s population increases, farming will play an increasingly important role in sustaining global societies.
