I am still optimistic about agriculture

Jim Rogers : I am still optimistic about agriculture. Prices are up, but they are not up near enough to bring new investment capital into agriculture. We have a shortage of farmers developing around the world. We have shortages of everything in agriculture.
The average age of farmers in some agricultural states in the US is 58-year old. In 10 years if they are still alive, they will be 68-year old. In parts of Japan, there are huge vast empty fields because there is nobody to farm. We have serious problems facing us. Prices have to go much higher in order to attract people into agriculture and to attract capital.
