520 8  Since the global financial crisis, the world has seen a 
       stark rise in financial investment in farming and 
       agricultural production. Indeed, finance has been 
       identified as one of the main causes of the so-called 
       "global land rush". Agriculture and land represent safe 
       investment opportunities and in a world with a growing 
       population that needs to be fed, the returns are a safe 
       bet. The debate that this has caused in the media is 
       frequently alarmist and financiers are blamed for rising 
       land prices and intensification of land commodification 
       across the globe.0Stefan Ouma seeks to debunk the 
       misconceptions and assumptions about "finance-gone-
       farming" with a penetrating analysis of case studies taken
       from both the developed and developing world, revealing 
       the role of global finance in the agricultural sectors of 
       these very different settings. The book provides a 
       fascinating insight into the inner workings of the agri-
       focused asset management industry.
