LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS (RFD NEWS) — Correctly pricing property is a top priority for landowners this year, as factors like water availability and trade uncertainty continue to influence farmland values and investor interest. Producers and buyers alike are closely watching how these elements may impact the market moving forward.
Jeramy Stephens with National Land Realty joined us on Wednesday’s Market Day Report to provide insight into the current state of the farmland market.
In his interview with RFD NEWS, Stephens discussed how access to water plays a key role in determining land value, particularly in regions where irrigation and reliable water sources directly affect productivity. He also addressed the impact of trade policy and economic uncertainty on land sales, noting that concerns about producer profitability can influence buyer confidence and pricing trends. Despite these challenges, Stephens said the market is seeing steady activity from both producers and investors looking for long-term opportunities in agricultural land.
Stephens also offered guidance to those navigating the farmland market, encouraging buyers and sellers to stay informed, carefully evaluate regional factors, and work with knowledgeable professionals to make strategic decisions.
