mAgma is the world’s first digital marketplace to enable farmers and landowners to raise money through tokenization of their farms. mAgma uses blockchain technology to create and issue digital, fractional shares of land and then sells those tokens (shares) to retail investors. This tokenization of farmland makes it easier for farm owners to sell their land, to generate cash flow to be used to buy other farmland, or to cash out family members. mAgma also enables retail investors to easily invest smaller sums ($1,000 to $10,000) into farmland for the first time ever.

DST Farms provides Section 1031 Exchange investors with specialized opportunities to directly engage the farmland asset class through Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) investment vehicles. As a sponsor entity, DST Farms identifies high-quality farmland that has the potential to deliver above-market returns and long-term capital appreciation while mitigating investment risk. The application of the DST vehicle to farmland allows investors to take direct ownership of an asset class that historically requires capital on a level that is often beyond the means of many investors.
