Gaining access to farmland through crowdfunding
Buying, renting or some form of partnership are, in most countries, the only way for people who don't inherit land to begin farming. This document describes an additional possibility: crowd funding. In this case, a number of wealthy individuals each invest a minimum of €25,000, which makes them an owner/director of the land fund. The land fund then purchases land and leases it for a reasonable price to the farmers who are connected with the land fund. The land fund is then the land lord and the farmer is the tenant. The benefit of this construction are: • The decoupling of land ownership and land use. • The land remains the property of the investors, so there is little to no risk for them. • Investors do not have any influence on (financial) business operations of the farmer. • The land fund and farmer are connected to each other, this gives the farmer security to invest in the land. • The farm is easier to take over because the land doesn’t belong to the in the farm. Making the business cheaper to purchase.
