Making a fertilizer basket of stocks for a long term play on nutrient depletion in farmland (as Jared Diamond predicted in "Collapse"). They are decently valued with single digit P/Es and have adequate interest coverage. Risks are that war/depression reduce population growth, or cheap inputs (e.g. natural gas) create an excess of supply.
