Agriculture has undergone a series of revolutions that have driven efficiency, yield and profitability to levels previously unattainable. This has included the introduction and implementation of mechanization between 1900 and 1930; the green revolution of the 1960s that saw the development of new, more resistant crop varieties and the use of agro-chemicals; and the rise in genetic modification from 1990 to 2005.

However, the rise of digital agriculture could be the most transformative and disruptive of all of these. Digital agriculture will not only change how farmers farm but will fundamentally transform every part of the agri-business value chain.

A lot of people have been asking for some time what Digital Farm are all about and where they could buy and invest in it

This thread is dedicated for all issues related to Digital Agric Fam, their going rates, when Auctions are due and why they should be bought,

I am not a Finance person, am just an Investor, so I might not be the best person to answer questions on this as they come, But am sure we have a lot of financial gurus with CFAs in this Forum and all our questions would be answered,

Lets discuss.

Modified

With the new input of information here, I believe all here sponsoring new farms to be added to the list should kindly add pictures as proofs backing their proposal.

Cavet Emptor:

This is solely based on recent performances as attested to by Nairalanders and by no means a go ahead order/permit to invest with any of the above agrictech firms, hence further investigation should be carried out by the investor until convinced otherwise.

Yours humble Investor

Thanks

"Agrictech is a high risk investment and investors may lose all or some of their funds when they participate."

Some may think this sounds harsh, but I don't agree. I think the point is missing that even those performing well today may fail tomorrow. These companies say as much in their terms, that the investment itself is "high-risk" and they are under no obligation to pay investors.

Don't let's ever make the mistake of communicating the feeling that these investments are safe, because honestly they are not. This is made even worse by the fact that investors don't actually own the farms, i.e. they own no assets when they make these investments.

As a result, all cards still lie with the firms themselves. I foresee more people losing money in the future, and that's only going to be with the firms supposedly performing well now, not with the ones that have had issues, cos nobody will invest in those ones anyways. This is just my take. Investors need to be better educated -binghamm
