African Farmland Investment For Retail Investors Yields 16.2%

September 20, 2012 | September 2012 Bond Updates

GreenWorld farmland investment in Africa pays high current income and also offers an opportunity for increase in the capital value of your agricultural land.

(1888PressRelease) Boutique alternative investment firm GreenWorld announced that its African Farmland Investment recently paid out its first yearly dividends of 16.2% and 14.8%.

Green World Partner Peter Thompson said, "We are very pleased that this investment paid out such high current income. Its a fine statement of the value of direct farmland investments for individual investors."

Thompson added that farmland as an investment had the following advantages for retail investors:

1) High current income when interest rates for traditional savings accounts are close to zero.

2) Very good medium to long-term prospects for capital gain due to the continued high prices of agricultural commodities.

3) An excellent hedge against inflation as central banks inevitably turn to additional printing of money in response to the global financial crisis and a possible break-up of the Eurozone.

4) Farmland provides diversification as it is not correlated to assets such as global stocks.

Thompson noted that all of its farmland investments targeted individual investors with minimum investment requirements as low as GBP1,950 (approximately US$3,200).

Thompson added that "all of our offerings, including our agriculture investments, are SIPP eligible for UK citizens, and are a fine way retail investors to add an asset to their portfolios which provides stability in an uncertain environment."

Green World currently offers the following alternative investments to individual investors:

• Timber Investments
• Farmland Investments
• Renewable Energy Investments
• Carbon Investments
• International Property Investments
