Saskatchewan harvest ahead of historical timeline with early reports of high quality crops

CALGARY, ALBERTA, CANADA, September 15, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- Veripath Farmland Partners has extensive holdings of Saskatchewan farmland within its Veripath Farmland Fund Limited Partnership ("R Fund") and is pleased by early reports of what is likely to be a successful harvest in the province.

According to the Saskatchewan department of Agriculture, Natural Resources and Industry crop report, “Harvest has progressed nicely this past week with 68 per cent of this year’s crop now in the bin. This is up from 51 per cent last week, ahead of the five-year average (2018-2022) of 52 per cent and the 10-year average (2013-2022) of 48 per cent.”

The quality of the harvest to date is also promising for Saskatchewan farmers:

“Provincially, quality is slightly above the 10-year average for peas, lentils and durum.”

“Veripath has extensive farmland holdings in the province of Saskatchewan and while we are not operators of farms, we are pleased by early reports of a successful harvest in Saskatchewan. The dedicated farmers who lease our land continue to see success in their efforts to meet the growing global demand for food,” said Veripath Vice President Carmon Blacklock.

Veripath operates on the conviction that worldwide demand for the agricultural products used for food, feed, and fuel makes farmland a valuable long-term investment and that valuation discounts continue to be present in Veripath’s target markets. In addition, farmland has demonstrated a strong historic capability of hedging both inflationary and stagflationary economic climates.

Who is Veripath?

Veripath is an alternative investment firm focusing on farmland. Veripath believes that there are a number of factors that are supportive of the farmland investment premise, a few of which are highlighted below.

• Value: Canada has some of the most competitively priced farmland in the developed world – particularly on a productivity adjusted pricing basis.
• Diversification: Farmland exhibits low correlation to traditional stock/bond investments so can improve portfolio risk diversification.
• Inflation Hedging: Farmland has historically had strong inflation/stagflation hedging capabilities.
• Demand: Farmland is a non-volatile way to capture the anticipated incremental demand coming from population growth and growing demands for food, feed, fuel and water globally.

Veripath divides the Canadian market into two separate geographies of ~84M acres each in order to streamline and simplify farmland ownership regulatory compliance. Veripath Farmland (UR) LP invests in all of Canada (excluding SK and MB) and Veripath Farmland LP invests just in SK and MB. The two sister Funds have the same terms and fee structures.
