Because it is becoming rare. Money is chasing it now commercial money is chasing it for solar. If you have land hold onto it because the money machine is coming to get it. I am trying to buy land in SW Michigan or NW Indiana and I cannot afford it - you can find houses on 20 acres for half a mil but they mostly have issues w/wetland, etc. I put an offer on 80 acres in NW Indiana for 600K and it was rejected and the ask was 500K. It sold for 850K - 80 acres in nowhere.
Odd that people type on their PC complaining about the guy that made it all possible. Next up complaining about his farming with your mouth full of food.
I own farmland as well. They aren't making any new farmland, it usually holds its value, and you still own something that can produce goods if the market crashes.
It's a good feeling to look out your door and own everything as far as you can see. It gives a sense of freedom that paper assets cannot match.
1. Money. Investment in hard assets. We are running out of farmland as America continues to develop rural land in the exurbs. It is not getting any cheaper. It is a good investment.
2. Coordinated plan. Bill Gates is not alone. He has been joined by many elite billionaires and the Chinese Communists buying up US farmland. All manner of globalist totalitarians are gobbling up farmland to take it out of production.
3. Rewilding. They are buying US farm land to convert it from industry to wilderness land. Gates will not be farming his land. He is going to leave it for nature to reclaim. UN Agenda 21 outlines a plan to re-wild most of rural America. People will be relocated from rural farms and ranches and town, into cities and suburbs. This is a natural progression anyway, but UN Agenda 21 just greatly speeds it up -- not through violence or some such, just through regulations and buying people out. The plan is for nature to take over rural areas like farms and ranches, replacing humans with increasing populations of animals
4. Population control and depopulation. Gates and the other elite globalists buying up US farmland want to diminish global food production, mainly to reduce world population. America is the bread basket of the world. If you restrict US food production, you reduce the ability to support world's growing population and can even reduce global population if you starve enough people long enough.
Your list, number 3 says "not using violence" but number 4 contradicts that, in fact purposeful starvation is very violent.
The problem for Gates if this is all true history shows any king, tyrant or controller that pushes people far enough, will reap the vengeance of said people.

Right, wrong, right, wrong.
1. Right, it’s a good investment. You know what they say about land - they’re not making any more of it. So if Gates thinks it’s a good investment, good for him.
2. “Take it out of production “? See 3 and 4.
3. Nothing about any UN agenda, but there is definitely an interest in turning land back to nature. The Nature Conservancy does this all the time: they buy up land in environmentally sensitive areas to preserve it.
4. Gates owns 1/4000 of US farmland. Taking that amount out of production has zero impact on US or global food supplies.
Of course. If they were were really so worried about climate change, they would not have beech front properties.
They are not worried and are they are screaming climate change as a control and fear tactic!!
If they really thought climate change was some big threat they would not buy these super expensive beech front properties that they insist to the public with their fear mongering propaganda will be swallowed up by rising sea levels!!
LOL! I keep picturing these houses built using beechwood paneling on the front.
The so-called "Agenda 21 Map" is entirely fake and had nothing to do with Agenda 21 in the first place. Instead, the fake "Agenda 21 Map" was an exaggeration created to artificially generate U.S. opposition to "The U.N. Treaty On Bio-Diversity" (something entirely different from Agenda 21). As it turned out, the United States also rejected The U.N. Treaty On Bio-Diversity. So, neither Agenda 21 nor The U.N. Treaty On Bio-Diversity (which the fake Agenda 21 Map actually illustrated) ever applied in the United States.
If the economy crashes, you want to own land and other durable property. Also, if you want to exercise power, controlling (or at least influencing) the food supply helps a lot. Also, what Freak80 said.
Private citizen choosing to buy real estate, is there something wrong with that or do you have any issue with how he spends his money?
