Farmland Partners Inc. has received numerous inquiries regarding impacts from recent hurricanes and the lease renewal cycle and would like the share the following information.
Hurricanes Ida and Nicholas
In the past few weeks, the Delta region, and Louisiana in particular, has been hit by Hurricanes Ida and Nicholas. While there was substantial rain on the Company’s farms in the region, none of the Company’s farms suffered significant damage from the storms. Many farmers, other business owners, and residents were not so fortunate, and we wish them a speedy recovery.
Lease Renewals

1 Excludes farms that are expected to be under direct operations in 2022, as well as farms under contract for potential sale and purchase. |
The Company’s lease renewals signed in 2021 generally commence in Q4 and, accordingly, contribute to revenue to a greater extent in 2022 and beyond than in 2021.
The Company intends to provide an update on these and other developments during its next quarterly earnings call.
