MOO might be a place to turn over some rocks, or alternately, participate broadly in global agribusiness by just buying the etf. According to etfconnect, just over 50% of their allocation is to companies in the US (the names are obvious,) but around 25% is "other" countries. Might be some hidden gems in there.
Roger,
The Bank of New York ADR site is an excellent resource for foreign stocks; including the less well known. Very good screening tools that allow you to screen by country, industry group etc..
If you go here, you can see 84 companies in the Food Producer Group.
They may not all be "farming" stocks per se, but here is one example of what you might turn up if you care to spend some time with the list...
CPOKY
"Charoen Pokphand Foods Public and its subsidiaries are engaged in operating an agro-industrial and food business. Co.'s business operations are located throughout Thailand and certain overseas locations. The business is divided into two main business segments. The Livestock business comprises chicken, duck and pigs, while the Aquaculture business consists of shrimp and fish. Co. is engaged in sourcing raw materials for animal feed production, manufacturing animal feed, breeding animals, farming animals for commercial purposes, processing meat, producing ready-to eat food products, distributing products domestically and internationally."
Hope this is helpful.

Ron, thanks for leaving the info. Coincidently I found Charoen through the Thai SET site. Great source for ADRs, yes, but a lot of the names I am finding have no ADR program they just have ordinary shares, so if they have US ticker symbols they end in F.
I have spent a fair bit of time last night, just finished Barron's and am now starting in today to keep researching so not sure I can follow up as soon as tomorrow with names but soon enough. Thanks again!
Roger,
Yes, I'm aware that the list would be limited to companies with ADR programs but I thought it might still be somewhat helpful since many are not well known. Also, fwiw, the list even includes some companies that don't even trade in the US. In other words, they may have ADR programs but only with other countries so the ADRs might trade on the London or Dubai exchanges (for example).
yeah I'm not sure why the Bony site and ADR.com each include 144 and GDRs.
i've often looked at those sites seen some interesting names only to be told no, oh well.
they are each great resources though, thanks again
Roger,
Although unfortunately, I can't provide names/symbols, I think you might have some luck checking the Malaysian and Indonesian indexs.
I recall reading several months back on Bloomberg, about palm and rapeseed(?) oil, and mention was made of some large producers, which I would suspect are listed...at least on the "local" exchanges.

jan,
i got quite a few Indonesian names and a few Malaysian names, Thailand too, from the exhcnage sites but with what the names are to many of the stocks (meaning language barrier) I'm sure I missed a bunch.
Singapore's site was a nuisance and so put off looking there for now.

I Roger, this one is from Chile,Santiago Stock Exchange (www.bolsadesantiago.com), ticker IANSA (mainly sugar), and their controller CAMPOS. For aditional information you can also check www.empresasiansa.cl and their numbers at www.svs.cl (chilean equivalent to SEC).
Bye,
thank you Ignacio. Odd, the stock tab on the company website only goes up through 2006. I see the name on the bolsa site with current info, just odd about the company site. Yahoo does not know a ticker symbol for it, apparently and neither does pinksheets.com.
