Lots of land offer

Denmark beckons to emigrants

June 30, 2017 - Niels van der Boom - 7 comments

If you are thinking about emigrating and don't want to farm too far from home, Denmark is the right place for you. In the country you will find a wide range of arable and dairy farms. Good arable land is very scarce in Germany. There are more opportunities for dairy farming.

Denmark has a wide range of arable and dairy farms. Which writes VSO Real Estate Agents. Despite this, there is also a lot of demand, which means that great companies do not stay on the market for long. VSO expects this to have a price-increasing effect, as is visible in the Netherlands. The older and poorly parceled out companies meanwhile have a lot of work to do to find interested parties.

25.000

euros per hectare

is paid for arable land in Denmark

€5.000 price difference
An average of €20.000 per hectare is paid in the country for a dairy farm. That includes buildings, livestock, and inventory. The price level of arable land is approximately €5.000 above this.

Fluctuating land market in Germany
Land prices in Germany fluctuate considerably. Depending on the federal state, it is sometimes very difficult to find land, while in some federal states there is ample supply. In Rhineland-Palatinate, suitable land for livestock farming can be purchased for €15.000 per hectare. In the north of Germany, the price for these lands is on average €10.000 higher. These are large lots and beautiful companies. Good arable land is a scarce commodity among our eastern neighbours. These land prices are stable and the supply low. It takes effort to find great companies.

Livestock farmer and arable farmer are waiting
The mood on the Dutch land market is calm at the moment. Livestock farmers are waiting for what will come with the phosphate rights. Arable farmers first want to be sure of their upcoming harvest and what this will yield financially. The price band for arable land is €80.000 to €120.000 per hectare. However, there are also outliers to be found. In the livestock areas, the price fluctuates between €50.000 and €70.000 per hectare.

Complete nonsense story. If you can't farm in the Netherlands, certainly not there. Very one-sided
