Lamborghini Farm Deals: How Fast Cash Is Enticing Farmers Who Want to Stop
- Outside of the publicity, a trader is active in the Netherlands who buys up farms on a large scale.
- Theo Wijntjes offers farmers who are retiring clarity and speed, but that translates into a relatively low price.
- Thanks to a clever business structure, Wijntjes does not have to file extensive annual accounts, but this turns out not to be a problem for his financier Rabobank.
Nobody trades like the largest farm trader in the Netherlands, Theo Wijntjes. There is no trace of him on the internet, but in the countryside everyone knows where to find him. He owes his position partly to financing from Rabobank, which does not seem to take it so seriously with its own rules to accommodate him.
