Agricultural Land

Agricultural land, often referred to as 'bareland', is essentially farmland with no attached buildings or residences.

Agricultural land is usually purchased as a business investment for farming purposes and the land will not usually have planning permission. Planning permission to change the purpose of the land can however be obtained in some circumstances.

Agricultural land falls into two categories: arable land and pasture / grazing land. High yield arable land requires specific conditions such as good location and precise soil content. This means that it is quite limited in supply and therefore it is sold at a premium.

The price of arable land varies enormously, even within the same region. Agricultural land prices can be very high as demand for agricultural land continues to outstrip supply. If the agricultural land is of high quality and well-located it can fetch well over £15,000 per acre..

Private investors are also buying well-located agricultural land as a form of long term, alternative investment.
