    But usually when you see big money flow to an asset class there is something up. And those groups usually have more information than we do. Is it climate change or population because just getting big doesn't guarantee your margins get bigger.

    If Canada has shoulder months like this April we are having, our ag business is going to change big time. Longer season crops will start to enter and there is an outside chance of double cropping in some areas that get moisture. Is this what they are seeing?
    You are not alone in your acreage base. We crop about 600 acres/ year and the balance is pasture , hayland and some SMF ( gasp!) for a total of 2240 acres. Ground around here is selling for $325,000 or more , so I will do more with what I have VS buying anymore.
