Anorther good agro blog is http://bigpictureagriculture.blogspot.com/

Keep in mind that Soros is only one wolf amongst a pack of hedge funds and private capital (and government capital from the ME and Asia) that have been acquiring farmland around the world, and the trend has been recognizable since at least 2003.

The largest private farmers in the US are now a hedge fund in NY/CT with 15 full time employees, the managing directors have had to learn the agro biz from the ground up.
