Access to a Major Australian Industry

Investors have largely been unable to directly invest in the Australian grain industry due to the capital requirements and a lack of opportunity. The Project provides investors with direct access to one of Australia’s most established industries.

Diversified Crops and Locations

Each season the Project provides investors with diversification of crops (i.e. wheat, barley and canola) and diversification of growing regions and farmers.

No Increase in Supply or Market Distortions

The Australian Grain-belt is restricted to rainfall zones and as such the majority of available land to produce grain is currently being utilised. The Project will only grow wheat, barley and canola on established properties and is not expected to grow any more grain than is already currently grown.

Non-irrigated Production

The majority of wheat, barley and canola crops in Australia are grown on non-irrigated land. It is expected that nearly all of the crops in the Project will also be grown on non-irrigated land and as such will not have any reliance on water allocations or access to water entitlements.

Short Term Investment Timeframe

The Project is different to almost every other agribusiness investment opportunity in that it aims to provide investors with an annual return commencing Year 1, whilst their investment period is for four seasons only.

Domestic & Export Markets

Mature and established domestic and international markets exist within the grain industry in order to sell wheat, barley and canola giving investors a degree of certainty in regards to sale and payment for their produce.

Tax Deductibility

The ATO issued Product Ruling PR 2011/8 for the 2011 Project. The ruling confirmed that all fees incurred by Growers, including the initial investment, will be 100% deductible in the year in which they are incurred.

Independent Research

Each Project undergoes an independent research report by Australia's leading agricultural research company, Adviser Edge. The 2011 Project was rated 3 3/4 stars (out of 5). Copies of the 2011 Project research report is available under the Project Downloads page.
