Its your turn to shout!

 Buy Australian products and keep agricultural beef land Australian owned! Great words but actions count. People are influential when individuals collaborate.   

STOP allowing the sale of prime agricultural land to overseas governments and businesses. We want Australian land in the hands of Australia! 

Australia risks losing control of its wealth-creating agricultural assets. The Federal Government is not paying sufficient attention to the issue of global food security, Australian agricultural jobs and the rising cost of living.

Our agricultural pioneers and grandfathers would say “their not making any more agricultural land” and we need to keep our rural land in the hands of Australians for future food security and securing future assets for our children. 

But what comes with this strategy is that Australian people need to invest in agribusiness. International companies are securing land to ensure their long jeopardy in the international food security space. Economy of scale and capital investment is were Australian agribusiness needs help. An investment such as this needs capital to establish a sustainable competitive edge.

Beef Connect is wishing to establish a independent Managed Investment Scheme (MIS) to obtain sufficient capital to establish a beef supply chain business and to keep parts of agribusiness Australian owned. 

Beef Connect is endeavouring to raise capital to ensure the fund supports a successful beef supply chain for cattle for a value added ‘Paddock to Plate’ product. The MIS would specialise in the production and supply of feedlot fed cattle to the beef processing sector. 

The MIS is open to investors by annual subscription that is equal to a shout of drinks with 8 of your mates each month.

With professional management, investment diversification, low start-up costs and minimal paper work, the MIS would be a funds management company that will grow through the delivery of commercially agribusiness attractive returns to investors with taxation benefits. 

Superannuation funds and managed funds are investing in Agribusiness, through this process you can do it directly with an Australian Agribusiness.

This is a grass roots Managed Fund with a focus on Australian owned land and food security with limited corporate expenses.

To invest in agriculture in Australia is one of the greatest investments you can have at this point in time. The agribusiness sector is a multi-billion dollar industry that really demands your attention. When you understand that food is the primary source of sustenance to any population, you will appreciate agricultural investments.

 The MIS dons't pay tax because their income (including net capital gains) is distributed to investors annually. Investors pay tax on distributions at individual marginal tax rates. 

 In this investment it would be large scale livestock pastoral properties. As your fund grows so does your distribution and capital ownership in the fund.

A agribusiness real estate investment fund is a company that owns, operates, or finances income-generating agribusiness real estate. The fund pools the capital of numerous investors which makes it possible for individual investors to own agricultural land and to earn dividends from agribusiness investments—without having to buy, manage, or finance any properties themselves.

The portfolio strategy is to focus on the best utilisation of agribusiness investments with a simple focus on agribusiness supply chain managements and marketing producing a product that is economical through product value adding and maximum manufacturing of livestock units.

We do not want to risk losing Agricultural land to overseas investors. We do not want to risk the long term implications of our food being in hands on non-Australian interests with the risk of higher food prices and less jobs for Australian families. Not to mention the broader political risks of our prime land being owned and operated by overseas companies and Governments. 

 A managed fund involves pooling together money from different investors into one fund that is invested and controlled by a professional investment manager. People with a common interest to achieve a common goal. Investors buy units in assets. 

A professional investment manager operates the scheme. You do not have day to day control over the operation of the scheme.

The Managing Director and Beef Connect’s founder has a strong industry experience is evaluating and bench-marking of rural businesses, IT project management of agricultural software implementation, rural investment modelling with production through to feedlot costing and measuring or comparing key productivity ratios and expenses of rural enterprises. Experience that  is ideal for review of the cost and suitability of agribusiness financing arrangements or for requiring additional finance facilities for property purchase or capital expenditure programs.  

Having a extensive wealth of knowledge ensuring Beef Connect and future Investment Funds are heading in the right strategic direction in the rural industry.     

If the Managed Fund has a strong member base then a team of professionals will be arranged to operate the administration and operations of the fund.  

The Manged Fund would purchase only Australian Agricultural land and only employee Australian citizens. The Managed Fund would endeavour to have business partnerships and dealings with largely Australian owned manufactures, distributors, logistic companies and use local suppliers.

Any investors that are wishing to purchase units in the fund must be an Australian citizen.

Economy of Scale agribusiness have the ability provide a good rate of return on dividends and capital growth. Just need people with a common interest with a common goal.
