AGRICULTURE will be big as we move into more monetary inflation and weather catastrophes abound. Everyone needs to eat.

Looking at getting into agriculture - I think the boom is coming in a few short years. This ETF gives a nice cocktail of a few goodies.

I think commodity prices will not keep pace with the overall growth of the economy over the next year. I think QE has inflated commodity prices, and with it's end we'll see this ETF drop or become flat to correct.

ETF tracking agri stocks. World shortage of food supplies currently and is going to get worse. Agri stocks are going to benefit from this.

Rising middle class in developing nations means many more people will want more better food. The MOO is a bet on the growing global imprtance of agriculture.

As the economies in emerging markets get larger and their middle classes form, they will demand more and better food and nutrition.

From the 1Q2010 Fund Description:
The Agribusiness ETF seeks to replicate as closely as possible, before fees and
expenses, the price and yield performance of the DAXglobal® Agribusiness
Index. The Index provides exposure to companies worldwide that derive at least
50% of their revenues from the business of agriculture.

I've been following Jim Rogers and Marc Faber for some time now, and they both call for agriculture to outperform. See here for Faber's take, and be sure to read the comments too:

Looking back at the chart, I do see that MOO tanked hard with the '08 market crash (from June to October went from lower 60s to lower 20s). POT (one of the larger holdings in MOO currently at ~8% of net assets) went from 230 to about 70 [!!] in about the same period. By contrast PG went from the 70s in September to the mid-40s at the March '09 market bottom (yes a lagging and extended timeframe from MOO and POT). Just thought I'd use a defensive blue-chip as a comparator to see how well the sector held itself during that terrible drop-off. Not sure if there is anything to draw from that looking towards the future.
