Investing in Agriculture: Commodity Guru Jim Rogers Warns Agriculture Calamity and Opportunity Ahead

Has Jim Rogers been reading our investment research?

Over the past few weeks we’ve been getting more and more bullish on agriculture.

We’ve been getting excited about agriculture again partly because the markets have rebounded strongly and agriculture has been a relative laggard while the exceptionally positive long-run outlook hasn’t changed one bit.

We’re in great company too. Earlier this week investing legend Jim Rogers recently took to the online airwaves and encouraged investors to get back onto the re-emerging agriculture bull.

In an interview with Tech Ticker, Jim Rogers said:

Most agricultural products are still depressed on a historic basis.

The story is not over, not for a while.

I don't see any reason it's going to be over for a few years because no one is bringing new supply on stream.

A catastrophe is looming. The world is going to have a period when we cannot get food at any price in some parts of the world.

We couldn’t agree more.

Agriculture still has a lot of upside. It is perfectly positioned to be a safe spot to be in as countries around the world continue to debase their currencies and then there’s also the very real risk of “Agtastrophe” (trademark pending) if any crop comes in poorly.

Yesterday, I told readers of our premium investment newsletter, Andrew Mickey’s Prudent Investing:

Agriculture is going to be one of the biggest opportunities of the next decade. It’s far more important to be in agriculture rather than risk missing out by waiting for a big dip to get in at the best price.

I’m buying ag now. I plan on buying more a month from now, a year from now, and on and on. The big boom is coming and you will want to go along for the ride.
