Investing in Australian agriculture can be a natural inflation hedge driven by growing non-discretionary spending. Why?
Demand for Australian grown fresh food and other quality agricultural products is forecast to increase materially over the next 10 years, driven by middle class population and income growth in both local and offshore markets.
Technology and farming practice advancements in the industry are driving labour productivity, increasing yields and decreasing wastage leading to higher revenues across the sector.
Protected cropping allows for year-round, more predictable output, mitigating key risk in farming.
High quality and reliability of Australian agricultural products has created demand in high valued global markets.
Exports forecast to increase materially led by demand for premium food products potentially to grow by 55% to 2030.
ESG opportunities within the agricultural real estate sector are disproportionately greater than other real estate asset classes.
