LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (RFD-TV) — Farmland real estate markets remain top of mind for producers as new federal assistance programs roll out and uncertainty continues across the broader ag economy. Questions remain about how additional support could influence land values, buying decisions, and market stability in the months ahead.
Jeramy Stephens with National Land Realty joined us on Friday’s Market Day Report to share his outlook on current farmland trends and what he is watching across the market.
In an interview with RFD-TV News, Stephens discussed recent farmland market conditions and how the latest assistance program could influence producer decisions. He addressed whether the aid could help some farmers purchase additional land and how that could affect demand.
Stephens also weighed in on whether federal assistance could help stabilize farmland values in certain regions, noting specific areas he is monitoring closely. He shared his expectations for how the farmland market could shape up over the next year amid ongoing economic and policy considerations. Lastly, he offered advice to landowners and buyers navigating today’s market, emphasizing the importance of timing, local conditions, and long-term planning.
