Seth Baker Recognized as Part of RLI’s APEX 2022 Producers Club

March 29, 2023 (Mt. Zion) – Seth Baker, with Field Level Agriculture, Inc. from Mt. Zion, IL has been recognized as a part of the 2022 APEX Producers Club by the REALTORS® Land Institute as a part of the RLI APEX Production Awards Program, sponsored by The Land Report. Seth was recognized by RLI CEO Aubrie Kobernus as well as The Land Report’s Co-founders Eddie Lee Rider Jr. and Eric O’Keefe at a special awards ceremony on Tuesday, March 7, during RLI’s 2023 National Land Conference (NLC23) in Denver, CO.

“I consider this to be a team award.  I would not be able to have this level of success in the farmland brokerage without everyone on the Field Level Ag team.  I feel that we have the best group of farmland brokers in the business,” said Seth upon receiving the award.  Seth M. Baker, who founded Field Level Ag in 2017, was raised on a grain farm outside of Mt. Pulaski in Logan County, Illinois.  Seth spent his early years helping his dad and grandpa around the farm which raised corn, soybeans, and seed corn.  By combining a lifetime in agriculture with a passion for economics and investing, Seth is able to use his experience and passion to help farmland owners reach their goals.

“We are proud of Seth and all of our members that were recognized as part of our award programs for their accomplishments in 2022. They truly are the most accomplished professionals with the highest levels of expertise in land real estate,” said RLI’s CEO Aubrie Kobernus, MBA, RCE. Top award winners will receive national recognition in The Land Report’s Spring Magazine, RLI’s Spring issue of Terra Firma magazine, as well as additional promotions throughout the year.

The APEX Awards Program celebrated its sixth year by welcoming 217 applicants totaling a combined $7.0+ billion in qualifying transaction volume.
