Frequently asked questions
What asset class does Sower Farmland invest in?
The firm invests exclusively in annual row-crop farmland in the United States. It does not pursue permanent-crop farmland, timber, livestock operations, or ag-tech venture, concentrating instead on the steady cash-rent income and long-term appreciation of commodity-crop ground.
How do investors own the underlying farms?
Each investor in the Sower Farmland Fund receives direct ownership in the portfolio of farms. This structure differs from publicly traded farmland REITs or index products, giving limited partners a fractional real-asset interest without an additional layer of corporate entity between the investor and the land.
How many acres does Sower Farmland manage, and where?
The fund manages over 15,000 acres across seven states, with each farm 100% leased to agricultural operators. The firm has stated the green shaded area spanning the Central and Midwestern US on its map indicates where its widespread relationships with farm managers, operators, and brokers originate, though exact state-level disclosures are limited.
Is Sower Farmland structured as a family office or a traditional fund manager?
Sower Farmland is an institutional asset management firm offering a commingled fund and separate accounts to accredited investors. It is not a single-family office, and the source of any founding-family wealth has not been publicly disclosed.
What is the firm's disclosed performance or AUM?
Sower Farmland does not publicly disclose assets under management, a specific year founded, or fund-level returns. The firm references NCREIF data showing the asset class itself has delivered positive annual returns since 1998 with an 11.2% average annual return over that period, noting that index performance does not reflect investment fees or transaction costs.
