Investing in forest land can be a great way to diversify your portfolio. Because tree growth doesn’t rely on economic factors, consistent biological growth can create more stable returns than other financial investments.
When you invest in forestry, you invest in a lower-risk asset that provides environmental benefits. This is often opposite what’s true for residential and commercial land, which is more prone to market disruptions and other market risks.
