Canadian Agra Capital
is an entity of CANADIAN AGRA Corporation that coordinates
the assembly of farmland parcels for larger scale commercial agricultural
operations.
Services:
Canadian Agra Capital works closely with local real-estate brokers
and banks in order to continually assemble an inventory of first class
farmland. Services provided for the investor interested in acquiring
a large scale farming operation include:
• Purchase
of high quality farmland. Prior to purchase of any farmland Canadian
Agra Capital performs a rigorous inspection of the land ensuring its
acceptability. If a client has a preference for farmland in a specific
geographic location or for a particular type of operation that is
not part of our current inventory, we will attempt to locate and purchase
property meeting the client's specifications.
• Establishment
and Managementof a Portfolio
A portfolio usually begins at 500 acres and over two to three years
may be increased to a maturity of 2500 acres. At this time, clients
may choose to divest, to continue to grow or to collect the income
from their portfolio. Most of the current portfolios held by Canadian
Agra Capital's clients are in Ontario as Ontario offers the most competitive
rate of return and has the most favorable government regulations for
the foreign investor. Portfolios in western Canada are usually larger
(4000 acres) since farmland prices are lower in this part of the country.
Clients:
Clients of Canadian Agra Capital are mainly foreign investors who
have specific and substantial long-term investment plans for premium
farmland in Canada.
Advantages:
Economies of scale are realized
on large scale farming operations thus maximizing returns.
Resale value is higher on
large acreage. Canadian Agra Capital specializes in only high quality
prime farmland. The company has a large selection of suitable land
in Canada for inclusion in a portfolio specifically assembled to meet
the needs of the client.
