Fractal Ag Pitch Breakdown with Ben Gordon and Shane Thomas

Fractal Ag Pitch Breakdown with Ben Gordon and Shane Thomas

Farmland has long been a popular asset among investors for its steady appreciation and resistance to economic downturns. At the same time, farmland is also a challenging asset at times, especially for farmers looking to expand, given farmland comes up for sale so infrequently and is so valuable. In the space between these two needs is where Fractal Agriculture has set up shop, connecting the dots between farmers seeking capital and investors looking to benefit from farmland investments. And for good measure, sprinkle in some regenerative ag practices for risk mitigation on both sides of the ledger.

Today, Sarah and Shane Thomas, author of Upstream Ag Insights, sit down with Ben Gordon, co-founder and CEO of Fractal Ag, to break down the pitch in real time. Along the way, they share insights, ask questions, and decide whether they’d invest in the endeavor.
