Still, for broad based “Agricultural Commodity” exposure investors often look to DBA (PowerShares DB Agriculture Fund, Expense Ratio 1.01%) which dominates the space in terms of its asset size currently ($1.5 billion in
AUM where the second largest fund in the space only has $235 million in AUM).
Generally it looks like there is a ton of room for asset growth and awareness in this space, not only among “Livestock” oriented funds but in this greater Agricultural Commodity space in that there are
thirty different ETPs operating in the space, but the average fund AUM size (excluding the largest, DBA) is only about $31 million, and there are seventeen products toiling below the dreaded $10 million AUM mark currently in relative obscurity.
