Abstract: Examination of combined returns from gross cash rent and real capital gains suggests that agricultural real estate compared favorably to returns from other investments from 1960 to 1979. For all States studied, increases in land values exceeded in the rate of inflation by a factor of at least two for the 20-year period.
