Buyers aren’t flinching as the farmland market reaches historic heights.
Eric Sarff, president of Illinois-based Murray Wise Associates, says price and volume keep churning higher.
“Both in Iowa and in Illinois we had a number of sales before Labor Day, which is typically not a common time to put your farm on the market. But as prices were strong, all those properties sold. And as we moved into October and now getting close to November, prices have remained strong (and) demand is still very strong.
