Agricultural Investment Fund

The population of the world is forecasted to increase from 6 bn to 9 bn in the foreseeable future. Two of the biggest countries in the world in terms of their population, India and China, are experiencing rapid growth with millions being drawn out of poverty and consequently desiring better and better food quality.

 

This combination of growing population and demand for better food will put huge strains on the world’s agriculture industry.

 

So where is all this extra and better food going to come from?

 

One country that could make a contribution, and quite a significant one, is Ukraine, once considered the 'bread basket' of Europe. 

 

However decades of communist doctrines followed by 2 decades of corruption has left this industry in a very poor condition. Under funded, undercapitalized and badly managed have caused yields to plummet.

 

Now Ukraine offers new opportunities in agriculture. A new less despotic democratic government is bringing real change. The free trade agreement with the European Union has finally been signed. The International Monetary Fund has agreed a financing programme worth $40 bn. of which the first tranche of $17.5bn has already been released. Change is in the air.

And as to the crisis in the east, as our new Minister of Finance Natalie Jaresko said "this is only 7% of our land".

 

This fund, the Agricultural Investment Fund, offers a secure and easier way to enter this very promising market. An agricultural fund managed by a group of western managers with together over 60 years of experience working in the Ukraine agriculture industry.

 

Let's go grow and make some money.
