“Organic farming is a great way to diversify one’s portfolio with tangible assets producing an essential product with returns that correlate only weakly with stocks and bonds. Many are aware of the controversy regarding Monsanto and the general reshaping of foodstuffs using modern tools of bioengineering. There is certainly enough concern to make organic farming attractive from both a consumer and investment standpoint. The numbers back it up. The industry is now grossing about $63 billion globally. According to the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements (IFOAM), the industry grew an amazing 170%, averaging about 19% per year over the past decade.”
