Sustainability

As an investor in US farmland, we recognize the environment's health as integral to our success at every level: making investments, managing investments, and creating value.

Homestead Capital intends to maximize both the annual return and asset value of the agricultural properties acquired through management practices and capital improvements that focus on the long-term sustainability of the land. Homestead’s differentiated portfolio incorporates various climate-smart strategies depending on the region and crop type, if applicable. Our climate-smart practices include organic farming, reduced inputs, cover cropping, and technological innovations to save energy and optimize irrigation and drainage.

We believe that this approach to investing in U.S. farmland responsibly will not only mitigate risk but also drive positive environmental outcomes, long-term value, and performance for our investors, farming partners, and the communities we serve.

Homestead Capital is a signatory of the UN Principles for Responsible Investing as of April 3, 2020.
