Industry Titans Bet Big On This Critical Sector (Trading Whisperer) |
With a yield of 2.82%, Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corp. (SYM: AGM) — or Farmer Mac – is driven by its mission to increase the accessibility of financing for American agriculture and rural infrastructure.
As a secondary market for the nation’s agricultural and rural infrastructure credit, the company provides financial solutions to a broad spectrum of customers supporting rural America, including agricultural lenders, agribusinesses, and rural electric cooperatives. It’s also uniquely positioned to facilitate competitive access to financing that fuels growth, innovation, and prosperity in America’s rural and agricultural communities.
Backed by the US government, the company can borrow at a low cost of debt and deploy cash into agricultural loans. We also have to consider that farm lending is only set to increase.
In 2024, for example, the volume of farm operating loans increased for the fourth consecutive quarter. Fueling even more excitement, “U.S. farmers retained their post-election optimistic outlook at the start of the new year, according to the January Purdue University/CME Group Ag Economy Barometer,” as noted by AgWeb.com.
“It’s optimism about the future that’s really driving this uptick in the ag economy barometer the last three months,” said Michael Langemeier, Purdue University ag economist and director of the Center for Commercial Agriculture, added AgWeb.com.
Helping, the company’s consistent and strong earnings growth has allowed for consistent returns to shareholders, as we can see with its 13 years of consecutive dividend increases.
In addition, according to President Trump, as quoted by Michigan Farm News:
“The American Farmer is essential to our economy and our way of life. We rely on our farmers, ranchers, and growers to ensure the safety and security of our food supply. As president, I signed a massive Farm Bill that improved agriculture programs and increased the amount of money that farmers can borrow. We will permanently end our reliance on China for all critical goods and strengthen domestic Buy American and Hire American policies.”
In short, Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corp. (AGM) — or Farmer Mac – still presents an attractive investment opportunity. Helping, he company’s consistent and strong earnings growth has allowed for consistent returns to shareholders, as we can see with its 13 years of consecutive dividend increases.
