Jim Rogers, who is a author, financial commentator and successful international investor frequently featured in Time, The Washington Post, The New York Times, Barron’s, Forbes, Fortune, The Wall Street Journal, and many other financial and economic publications has recently made the following quotes regarding farming in the current world.
farming is the future
Let us never forget that the cultivation of the earth is the most important labor of man. When tillage begins, other arts follow. The farmers, therefore, are the founders of civilization.
-Daniel Webster
“I am the world worst market timer. I just try to be long things that are going to do better than the things that I am short on. By the way the best sector in the world that I know right now is probably agriculture. Everybody should become a farmer. Farming is going to be one of the greatest industries of our time for the next 20 to 30 years.
It has been finance and paper shuffling and money, now it is going to be real things and real assets.”

“...I really think agriculture is going to be the best place to be. Agriculture's been a horrible business for 30 years. For decades the money shufflers, the paper shufflers, have been the captains of the universe. That is now changing. The people who produce real things [will be on top]. You're going to see stockbrokers driving taxis. The smart ones will learn to drive tractors, because they'll be working for the farmers. It's going to be the 29-year-old farmers who have the Lamborghinis.
So you should find yourself a nice farmer and hook up with him or her, because that's where the money's going to be in the next couple of decades.”
