Hey, it’s Farmer Brown –

Real quick here, I think the ag story has gotten a bit too crowded.  As a long-term player in this space, I don’t care all that much.  For a short-term trade though, you may want to look elsewhere.

One the one hand, supply-constraining political, economic and climate-related developments will continue to keep prices strong. On the other, fundamental demand for food continues to increase as populations around the world grow bigger and richer — and not just in the most populous, developing nation of China.
