ENGLISH FARMLAND
The English farmland market is driven by many factors other than agricultural profitability. These include “lifestyle” reasons, conservation and the favourable tax benefits offered by farmland ownership.
This diversity of buyers has helped the index to outperform virtually all UK property sectors and the FTSE 100 index of leading shares over the past decade.
