Illinois has a rich, versatile soil that supports a wide range of services and production. While most production on Illinois soil is corn and soybean. Farmers also grow a variety of specialty crops like pumpkins, peaches, apples, grapes, melons, and horseradish. In fact, Collinsville, Illinois is considered the ‘Horseradish Capitol of the World’.
Historically, investing in Illinois farmland is relatively safe. Over the last decade, landowners have seen a 9% increase in the original investment. Coupled with 3% rent, and some have seen a 12% increase in the last 10 years.
That said, we are not investment experts. While Illinois has an excellent track record, past performance is not a prediction of future behavior. Before purchasing any type of farmland, consider all the tax implications.
