There are currently 1.8 million Farmland Partners shares held short by investors – that's known as Farmland Partners's "short interest". This figure is 20.4% down from 2.2 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Farmland Partners shares can be evaluated.
Farmland Partners's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Farmland Partners shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Farmland Partners shares traded daily (recently around 190499.34711643). Farmland Partners's SIR currently stands at 9.19. In other words for every 100,000 Farmland Partners shares traded daily on the market, roughly 9190 shares are currently held short.
However Farmland Partners's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Farmland Partners shares, or, against the total number of tradable Farmland Partners shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Farmland Partners's short interest could be expressed as 0.06% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Farmland Partners shares in existence, roughly 60 shares are currently held short) or 0.0699% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Farmland Partners shares, roughly 70 shares are currently held short).
A SIR below 10% would generally be considered to indicate a fairly optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Farmland Partners.

Dividend payout ratio: 37.72% of net profits
Recently Farmland Partners has paid out, on average, around 37.72% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.34% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Farmland Partners shareholders could enjoy a 2.34% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Farmland Partners's case, that would currently equate to about $0.2 per share.
While Farmland Partners's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Farmland Partners may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Farmland Partners's most recent dividend payout was on 15 January 2021. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 30 December 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").
Farmland Partners's shares were split on a 1:4 basis on 17 October 2014. So if you had owned 4 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Farmland Partners shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 300% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Farmland Partners shares which in turn could have impacted Farmland Partners's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Farmland Partners's shares have ranged in value from as little as $4.9345 up to $9.03. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
