Video: 2014 Farmland Values Report

Apr 13, 2015

Farm Credit Canada (FCC) released its annual Farmland Values Report. The national average farmland value increased 14% in 2014. This is a large increase over 2013, but lower increase than the 22% increase FCC reported last year. The patterns in farmland values differ across the country: Saskatchewan recorded an average increase of 19%, Ontario was at 12% while BC farmland showed an average gain of 4%.

Taking interest rates and regional prices into account, hear why FCC Chief Ag Economist J.P. Gervais thinks farmland values could be moving towards more moderate increases in Canada.
