Invest in the Future of Food with Food ETF

The need to nourish a growing population yet reduce the environmental impact of agriculture looks set to transform food production. Scientists are inventing ways to produce more food with less. Food ETF sustainably invests in the companies harnessing new technologies to feed the world.

Powerful Forces Driving Transformation

Without far-reaching changes in agriculture and food production, the world will not be able to halt its march towards environmental disaster. Already, the industry is a major greenhouse gas (GHG) emitter and does widespread harm to the environment in other ways besides. As the global population grows, powerful forces are beginning to transform food production.

Main Risk Factors of Food ETF

Icon

Because all or a portion of the Fund are being invested in securities denominated in foreign currencies, the Fund’s exposure to foreign currencies and changes in the value of foreign currencies versus the base currency may result in reduced returns for the Fund, and the value of certain foreign currencies may be subject to a high degree of fluctuation. That is a factor to consider when investing in Food ETF.

For more information on risks, please see the “Risk Factors” section of the relevant Fund’s prospectus, available on www.vaneck.com.
