Because of this, many investors regard agriculture and farming investments as being recession-proof.

The closest that an investor can get to owning a farm without actually doing so is by investing in a farming through company that has a large scale of farming machanism (Standard Alliance) investment trust (BTIT). Some examples include Farmland Partners Inc. (FPI) and Gladstone Land Corporation
Investment in agriculture and forestry includes government expenditures directed to agricultural infrastructure, research and development and education and training.
