Our Approach:

  • We invest only in companies with a strong agricultural component
  • We identify sectors we consider important going forward
  • Once the sectors are identified we look for companies that have sustainable competitive advantage, a compelling business model, initial market validation and a strong team.
  • Examples of priority sectors where we have not yet identified investment opportunity are water management and aquaculture.
