Schnitkey, Gary D. Noland, Kevin L. 2010-05-18T18:53:28Z 2010-05-18T18:53:28Z 2012-05-19T10:00:14Z 2010-05-18T18:53:28Z Previous research on returns to farmland derived data from aggregate U.S. or regional sources. A distinction of this document is that an actual portfolio of Illinois farms are evaluated. This thesis extends past research by analyzing a longer and more current period. The results suggest that Illinois farmland pays a substantial premium above what is required for systematic risk and that its returns are negatively correlated to most major asset classes. Illinois farmland adds very little risk to a well-diversified portfolio and is a hedge against inflation.
