“The world now faces ‘very low inventories’ of foodstuffs for the first time in years, Rogers tells BBC Radio. In addition, farmers are in short supply and aging, with the average age of a U.S. farmer at 58, he notes. Put it all together, and it’s good news for agriculture. ‘Agriculture’s been a terrible business for 30 years. It is now beginning to get better. If you want to make a lot of money in the future, which many people do, you should learn to drive a tractor,’ Rogers suggests. ‘Agriculture is going to be one of the most exciting businesses in the next 10 years.’ Although the number of young farmers has risen, the average age of farmers rose to 58.3 years from 57.1, a government census found.”
