  • Farmland for fresh produce and permanent crops offers higher profitability, lower volatility, and less government dependency than commodity crop land.

  • California irrigated and coastal cropland have appreciated by 260% and 155% respectively since 2000.

  • Fresh produce prices have outpaced overall food inflation by 1.3x since 1980.
