BUSINESS NATION'S FIELD OF DREAMS
The words "breadbasket to the world" used to refer to the United States. Today, some farmers are finding a new field of dreams, and it's thousands of miles away from the nation's heartland. CNBC’s David Faber takes us to Brazil.
Tyler Bruch left his family's Iowa farm in search of agricultural opportunities abroad. What he found has become a multi-million dollar business for himself and a field of dreams for investors.
Before Tyler Bruch was farming tens-of-thousands of acres in Brazil, he was working the 2,500 acre family farm in Iowa. We visited Don, Jane and Lance Bruch in Emmetsburg during the harvest.
At age 22, Tyler Bruch came to Bahia, Brazil with an idea. Today, his idea has grown into 52,000 acres of commodity crops. He takes David Faber back to the farm that started it all.
Luis Eduardo Magalhaes. The central Brazil town may have a Portuguese name hard to pronounce, but its American inhabitants just call it "home".
