According to AGinvest’s Founder and President, Kent Willmore, “AGinvest Farmland Properties Canada is committed to investing in Ontario farmland, allowing our investors to gain exposure to some of the best farmland in the world.” Ontario’s crop diversity and track record of becoming increasingly productive will lead to a solid long-term investment opportunity with very low volatility and virtually no correlation to financial markets. Ontario farmland has an estimated total value of over $150 billion. “AGinvest can execute our strategy and allow our investors to own this premium farmland for many years to come,” said Kent Willmore. “Ontario farmland has several unique advantages, with the largest being access to water. It is one of the few beneficiaries of the global warming trends, while many other farming regions globally are losing access to water as they deal with the impacts of climate change”.
