About Field Yield

We meet every landowner and farmer we invest in.

Field Yield’s selection process is managed by Branch Farm & Timberland. Jim Branch and his team have been acquiring, managing and selling farmland and timber in the Southeast for over three decades. Their due diligence process starts with data and ends with close, personal investigation of each potential investment. Once a farm is chosen for investment, the expert team advises and supports the farm operator in making regular sustainability improvements that lead to better returns for our investors and farms. According to data collected by the National Council of Real Estate Investment Fiduciaries, the combined annual return of U.S. farmland investments has averaged 11% since 1992.

We are committed to regenerative, ethical farming.

Field Yield is leading the effort of making sustainable farmland ownership an asset class for all investors by democratizing farmland ownership through crowdfunding farmland “CrowdFarming,” tapping into the $2.7 trillion US farmland market. The Field Yield CrowdFarming platform allows accredited investors to participate in specific farmland opportunities through Regulation D offerings that meet ESG standards.
