fcc numbers are pretty accurate. here it was hovering around 60-100,000 a quarter depending on quality and timing for a long time up till 2008-9. now it is roughly triple that.

I would say 4-5X here. Roughly speaking.

My hindsight investing is as good as my hindsight marketing!

Er no actually - if you read the thread you guys are actually agreeing with me at the 4x values and pointing out that Klause's 13x is the horseshit data.

Lol...yup!

I c your point grass , but your not comparing apples to apples either .
Klause never mentioned Sask average.
He stated “here” which clearly meant his area , thus he may very well be bang on .
Again cherry picking to fit an argument.

Here , in this area we have from $75,000 to $480,00 . For the exact same dirt .

[furrowtickler]

Just under $4000 compared to $16,500 now.

Is that the entire national average per acre price of all farmland , including pasture ?
Or just a locally point of reference?

I was quoting real figures - credible averages - apples to apples. Klause was the one trying to discredit my valid figures by cherry picking to fit the argument - cherries to apples, if you like ;0)

Sheesh, I wish some of you guys would read what's written. The prices I quoted in the first post were stated to be the average of all arable land sold in England. So that's a national average, not local - for arable land, so not including pasture land.

Klause is close for our area. 10 times the value in the last 20 years. Hard to make it work when u got 2 greedy bastards ruining the chances of a young guy trying to start. Ok for the old f@$#& getting out!

[Sheepwheat]

Barely doubled here, if that.

about 2.5 times what it sold for at the peak before the 80's wreck here. then it dropped big time mid eighties . one parcel sat for several years at $60k/quarter, would fetch $350 +(6 times) now . some of the best land in sask i think
