Andjelic Land Inc.

What Andjelic Land Inc. does

Andjelic Land Inc. is a privately held Canadian farmland owner-operator founded in 2011 by Robert Andjelic and headquartered in Regina, Saskatchewan. The company owns and manages more than 250,000 titled acres across over 100 rural municipalities in Saskatchewan and Manitoba, leasing parcels to more than 250 farm operators ranging from new entrants seeking 160-acre starter plots to large multi-section grain and oilseed operations. Approximately 40,000 acres are intentionally retained as uncultivated green space (pasture, native grass, wetlands, and trees) for biodiversity and wildlife habitat. The core product is a farmland leasing marketplace built on a proprietary online auction and proxy-bidding platform at andjelic.ca, complemented by a Salesforce-based tenant portal for document management and ongoing communication. Standard leases are five years in duration with semi-annual rent payments (50% on February 15, 50% on October 15); tenants must carry minimum $5M liability insurance and SCIC or equivalent crop insurance, and pay property taxes in addition to rent. Bid ranges observed in recent auctions fall between $55 and $123 per titled acre depending on soil class, location, and parcel quality. The company invests millions annually in land improvements including tile drainage, grain storage construction, road access upgrades, and bush removal, reporting 40-80% efficiency gains and roughly 50% reductions in CO2 emissions from machinery on improved acres. Andjelic Land is entirely founder-financed with no institutional investors or PE backing, operates with a lean 5-person core team supplemented by regional field coordinators, and pursues a sales-led, relationship-driven go-to-market targeting both enterprise-scale producers and entry-level farmers.

Direct peers

• Farmland Partners Inc. NYSE-listed US farmland REIT (ticker FPI) that owns and leases farmland to farmers. Most directly comparable listed peer for Andjelic's own-and-lease model, though at much larger scale and primarily US-focused.
• Gladstone Land Corporation: NASDAQ-listed US farmland REIT (ticker LAND) that acquires and leases farmland to farmers. Comparable business model of owning farmland and generating rent from operators, though focused on specialty crops in the US.
• Bonnefield Financial: Canada's largest farmland investment management firm, managing pooled capital to own and lease Canadian farmland to operators. Closest Canadian direct peer given shared geography, crop focus, and landlord-tenant model.
• AGInvest Properties: Canadian farmland investment manager that acquires Saskatchewan and Western Canadian farmland and leases it to farm operators. Direct competitor for parcels in Andjelic's core geography.
• Ceres Partners: US-focused farmland investment manager that acquires and leases farmland to operators, with a similar dual focus on tenant relationships and long-term lease structures to Andjelic.

Broad incumbents

• Hancock Natural Resource Group: One of the world's largest managers of timberland and farmland, owned by Manulife. Comparable as a large institutional owner/lessor of farmland, though operating globally and across multiple natural resource asset classes.
• Nuveen (TIAA Farmland): Global investment manager that owns and leases significant US and Australian farmland on behalf of pension capital. Comparable as a large-scale institutional farmland landlord, though embedded within a much broader asset manager.

Regional players

• Assiniboia Capital Corp. Saskatchewan-based farmland investment company with a Farmland LP product. Direct Western Canadian peer competing for similar SK farmland parcels and farm operator tenants.

Emerging players

• Verde Valley Investors: Smaller Canadian farmland investment vehicle focused on Saskatchewan farmland. Comparable niche-scale farmland owner/lessor operating in the same core geography as Andjelic.

Others

• Farm Credit Canada: Canadian federal Crown corporation that finances farmland purchases and the broader agriculture sector. Indirect peer in that it shapes capital availability and pricing for farmland ownership in Saskatchewan and Manitoba, where Andjelic acquires and operates.
