Introducing Our Partnership with Peoples Company
During the first quarter, Sower formed a strategic partnership with Peoples Company, one of the nation’s leading farmland brokerage and land management firms. Founded in 1972 and headquartered in Iowa, Peoples Company has grown into a nationally recognized agricultural real estate platform serving farmers, landowners, institutional investors, and family offices across the United States.
Over the past five decades, Peoples Company has facilitated more than $5 billion in agricultural land transactions and built a national network of farmland professionals operating across 30+ offices. The firm provides a fully integrated suite of services, including farmland brokerage, land management, agricultural appraisal, capital markets advisory, crop insurance, energy management, and farmland investment consulting.
A key differentiator for Peoples Company is their ability to combine local agricultural expertise with institutional-level farmland analytics and market data. Their team works directly with farmers and landowners across major agricultural regions, providing real-time insight into farmland values, rental markets, and regional crop economics. This deep connection to the agricultural community allows them to identify high-quality farmland opportunities and manage land assets with a long-term stewardship mindset.
For Sower investors, this partnership enhances both the sourcing and management capabilities of our farmland platform. Through Peoples Company’s national brokerage network and farmland intelligence platform, we gain broader visibility into farmland opportunities while strengthening our ability to manage and steward land assets responsibly.
Farmland continues to be supported by durable long-term fundamentals. Productive agricultural land is limited in supply, while global food demand continues to grow. Historically, farmland has generated returns through a combination of annual farm income and long-term land value appreciation.
By partnering with experienced organizations such as Peoples Company, Sower is well positioned to continue expanding its farmland platform while maintaining the disciplined investment approach that defines our strategy.
