  • The special milestone of this being the 40th FCC Farmland Values Report. JP shares more about the report and the information it contains.
  • JP shares the overall Canada-wide national value for 2023.
  • He then shares the results province by province, noting anything surprising.
  • How did the 2023 values compare to 2022 and 2021? JP shares more.
  • Tracy asks about interest rates, higher costs, and if they are starting to see farmland purchases cooling.
  • With elevated interest, higher costs, and lower commodity prices, Tracy asks JP for his thoughts on what the 2024 report will likely reflect.
  • JP shares his thoughts on interest rates for 2024, fixed versus variable, and what farmers may expect for interest rates over the next ten years.
