Buy a bigger house, MF. If you have paid it off then it clearly isn't big enough.

could you recommend a few, no idea about any agricultural company.

CORN (wheat), AIGL (food & livestock) are ones I am looking to stick into an ISA this year.

GBS (gold) is another but I'm waiting for a better price.

There are several LSE listed equities you can buy into that directly reflect the price of these commodities.

Actually you're not far off there. Not only is there a growing need of wheat/grain for consumption, but these are now also needed for the growing biofuels industry.

The recent drought in Oz has pushed up prices too as Oz usually exports a lot of it's wheat globally and has recently been unable to do so.
