Farmland LP owns and operates two farmland funds. Fund I is a limited partnership and is closed to new investors. Fund II is a private REIT and is open to interested accredited investors.
Having just celebrated its 10-year anniversary, Farmland LP now manages over 15,000 acres across Fund I and Fund II, with farms based in Oregon, California (Fund I), and Walla Walla, Washington (Fund II).
As an organic and sustainable farmland manager, Farmland LP has now grown to be one of the top 0.4% of all U.S. farms by revenue according to the USDA. This scale helps with their mission to demonstrate that sustainable agriculture is more profitable than commodity agriculture, as scale also correlates with profitability in agriculture.
For their latest annual report:
Our core strategy of adding value to farmland using sustainable agriculture best-practices has been consistent since we started in 2009, and over the years we have learned a few things that continue to improve and refine what we do.
- Sustainable, organic agriculture continues to prove itself and deliver benefits.
