Episode 3: Land Access and the Financialization of Land

Hosts: Madeline Marmor and Ayla Fenton

In today’s episode we will learn about land access issues, specifically the financialization of farm land with our guest Katherine Aske. We’re going to clarify the difference between valuing land as a financial asset, a commodity and valuing land by its productivity. Access to farmland is one of the main factors gatekeeping agriculture because of the colonial context, financial challenges, and land grabbing done by speculative investors. Katherine shares findings from her research about land tenure models in the Canadian context.

Our guest, Katherine Aske, grew up in Mi'kma'ki. From 2019-2020, she interviewed grain and oilseed farmers across Alberta for her MA research into the financialization of farmland. She has worked as a farm worker in Alaska and around Vancouver, and is currently farming on unceded Musqueam territory as UBC Farm's Practicum Field Coordinator. She previously worked for the National Farmers Union (NFU) in New Brunswick, and is now involved in leading the NFU's Farmland Committee.
