Buying undeveloped land can be a difficult investment. This is because there are current expenses, such as real estate taxes and insurance, but generally no current income.
In most cases, you are speculating that the area will be developed and that the land will become more valuable. Even then you must consider whether the zoning will permit subdivision, profitable investment, whether there are utilities and sewers that will reach the property, whether there will be accessible roads, etc.

Another value proposition in land investing is the use of the Natural Resources for profit. This could mean harvesting timber with commercial value, or licensing mineral rights, water rights, or hunting rights.
Furthermore, rather than develop land by putting up buildings, some investors sell or donate a "conservation" or "preservation" easement, restricting future development, but permitting the on-going stewardship of the natural resources (for a profit). Such easements can dramatically reduce the tax burden and may provide statutory immunity from liability to recreational users.
