Agriculture

The good news: Private equity investors are interested in investing in the Business of Agriculture. The bad news: The money is not flowing into fake meat or controlled environment Ag businesses. What is hot? Premium dairy, pet food, and anything fermented. Why? Because those categories offer private equity investors what they want — higher margins, growth, pricing power, differentiation, and added value. Dan Zelazik with Ascendant Partners, a boutique investment bank specializing in food and Agriculture explains how and what capital markets are investing in Ag.
