Dem-Inter Africa
Why Africa?
Strong economic growth with social imperatives
Fertile soils and high rainfall and / or sustainable irrigation potential
Sufficient trainable, skilled labour
Local demand for management skills, training & food production
Opportunity to create sustainable agribusinesses with quality local
partners
High returns from import-parity pricing of production
Why now?
Increasing global demand for agricultural commodities makes
imports more expensive
Unlikely decline in commodity prices for the long term
Global food security with huge focus on Africa
Africa seeks large scale, sustainable, staple food production to
reduce escalating costs of imports and maintain Food Security
Availability and willingness of governments to provide suitable
land resources with favourable conditions |
