Likes it in the short term. Farm income is now projected to be up 5%, which will increase farmers to spend. Emerging markets are going to have to feed their people, which will encourage all kinds of agricultural activity.
BUY
There is an effort to build a huge pipeline for ethanol in Nebraska, which will mean a lot of farmers growing crops for ethanol and buying farm equipment.

DON'T BUY
Not a fan of Caterpillar (CAT-N) or Deere (DE-N) because of balance sheet leverages but are also tied to global construction demand, a cyclical recovery. Both of gotten ahead of themselves recently.

(A Top Pick Aug 5/08. Down 30.84%.) Sold last fall when markets were in the tank. Farmers are going to have to feel more comfortable with 1) outlook for crops, 2) pricing and 3) their income. If you are going to Buy a position, take a small one after they report on Aug 19 and be prepared to wait a bit.
BUY
Tied to the resurgence in the overall economy. Their agricultural business is going to be tied to a growth in the international markets. Until the inventory equipment is drawn down there will be demand for new products. For a 3-year time horizon you could Buy or Hold.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 5/08. Down 36.9%.)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick June 4/08. Down 44.9%.) Suffered with all agricultural related stocks. This year there have been fears about weather and credit conditions restraining purchases of new equipment. Long-term it's a great buy but not in the near term.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 6/07. Down 57%.) There were fears of flooding in the US Midwest. Also difficulties in Brazil, which he feels have been resolved. 55% of sales are overseas. Agricultural boom is not over.
BUY
Trading at about 6 X earnings. Very good balance sheet with only about 21% debt to total capital. Buy for the longer-term 3 to 5 years.
BUY
Agricultural exports get hurt with a rising US$. US agriculture is very well supported on a subsidy and competitive basis. This company should do well.
DON'T BUY
(Market Call Minute.) Tied to the agricultural sector so he would stay away right now.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sept 13/07. Down 2%.) Had a peak towards the end of last year. Went sideways and then with flooding in the US, fears were created that farmers would not be able to buy new equipment. Expecting tremendous increasing demand for foods.
