June 2025

As we head into another dry autumn and wait for the long anticipated ‘break’ in the weather, it’s more important than ever to recognise the value and significance of your local farmland.

In 2024, Tasmania led the nation in median farmland value growth, with prices surging 14.2 % to $23,202 per hectare. Remarkably, this is now three times higher than it was just a decade ago, highlighting the enduring appeal and investment potential of Tasmanian rural land.

However, 2025 has brought its own challenges. For the first time in six years, Northwest Tasmania has seen a decline in farmland values, falling by 5.9%.

This shift serves as a reminder that even our strongest rural markets are not immune to changing conditions.

As we navigate another challenging season, it remains clear: Tasmanian farmland continues to be a vital, valuable asset, providing stability and opportunity as the landscape evolves.
