FBN Farmland Poll

Thank you to all FBNers who responded to our text poll on Thursday.

 

The question we asked was:

 

In the next year, are you trying to buy farmland?

 

A:Yes

B: No, prices are too high

C: No, interest rates are too high

D: No, I'm selling

E: No, not expanding

 

As a side note, this poll was FBN's biggest ever getting nearly 4,000 responses vs previous high responses of 3,300.

 

The results show that over a third of farmers are looking to buy farmland, with only 2% looking to sell. Land prices are a big constraint on why they are not buying followed by interest rates.
