- First Trust Indxx Global Agriculture ETF (FTAG) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks investment results corresponding generally to the price and yield, before fees and expenses, of the Indxx Global Agriculture Index. The fund normally invests at least 90% of its net assets in common stocks and depositary receipts comprising the index, a market capitalization-weighted benchmark designed to measure the performance of companies directly or indirectly engaged in improving agricultural yields. These include firms in sub-industries such as chemicals and fertilizers; seed manufacturers; irrigation equipment providers; farm machinery companies; and farmland operators. Launched on March 11, 2010, and managed by First Trust Advisors L.P., with First Trust Portfolios L.P. as distributor, FTAG is headquartered in Wheaton, Illinois, and operates globally by holding securities from developed and emerging markets across regions including North America, Europe, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East. Top holdings as of recent reports feature companies like Corteva Inc., Deere & Co., BASF SE, Nutrien Ltd., and Bayer AG, reflecting exposure to large- and mid-cap issuers generating at least 10% of revenue from eligible agriculture-related activities. The non-diversified fund targets institutional and retail investors seeking thematic equity exposure in the agriculture sector. In December 2015, FTAG underwent a significant strategic shift when its underlying index changed from the ISE Global Platinum Index to the Indxx Global Agriculture Index, realigning its focus from platinum mining to global agriculture productivity enhancement. Recent activity includes routine distribution announcements, such as those posted by First Trust Advisors L.P. in September 2025, alongside ongoing portfolio adjustments reflected in 13F filings showing increased stakes in holdings like Corteva Inc. (up 0.79% as of early 2025); no major acquisitions, funding rounds, or new product launches have been reported for the ETF itself within the last two years.
