Symbols: DBA, DE, MON, MOO, POT

The ETF Professor noticed earlier that CBOT agriculture futures in corn, oats, wheat and soybeans are all up sharply and thought it might be a good idea to find some ETFs to play this trend with.

If you're looking for a pure futures play, try the PowerShares DB Agriculture ETF (NYSE: DBA). DBA holds corn, wheat and other ag futures contracts.

An equity play would be the Market Vectors Agribusiness ETF (NYSE: MOO) or the new Jefferies TR/J CRB Global Agriculture Equity Index Fund (NYSE: CRBA). Both MOO and CRBA hold shares in fertilizer companies like Potash (NYSE: POT), seed makers like Monsanto (NYSE: MON) and farm equipment giant Deere (NYSE: DE).
