Agricultural real estate deal with food production and livestock keeping. The agricultural most productive age is between 18-30 years.  However, it is sad that the youth do not see agriculture as being something of prestige in this generation that we are living in.  The youth are focused on other things in life, like fashion and technology. Peer pressure has made them forget their priorities, and for this reason, it is so hard to find youths with the mindset of agricultural investments. 


Over the past weeks, happiness is what has been the order of the day all over the country following the release of the 2020 KCSE results. A number of students passed and are qualified to continue with the tertiary level of education, either in universities and colleges. This number is approximately 20-40 percent of the total number of students who sat for their examinations this year. What about the rest? What about the 60 percent of the students who are not qualified to join the tertiary students for further studies? Have they thought of agricultural investments? 
This idea might be refuted by many with being financially unstable as the main excuse for not investing on real estate. However, this should not be the case since knowledge on real estate is key to beginning investing on real estate business.  Anyone as young as a form four graduate can be able to start investing on real estate, with enough knowledge on real estate.

People need to understand that, like any other any other real estate investments, agricultural investments is beneficial and has profitable returns. Agricultural sector in the real estate will continue to flourish as long as the human race still exists.
