It will be a great time to be part of a new growth story and shared prosperity. Australia is protected by the natural isolation of being an island-continent which is blessed with resources and exports enough food to feed another 50 million people. Australia is located in the fastest-growing part of the world and is already an acknowledged exporter of services and quality food items let alone minerals and energy.

It is now time to come to Australia contribute to its growth and become part of the story. Doors are now open for skilled investment migrants and their families.

What is important is Australia not only exports the provisions but the technology of how to make them. Australian Agri-technology is a growing annuity for the investment has been made by Australian industry and, in particular, through grower levies paid to development bodies such as the CSIRO. These developments -such as crops that use less water- are a benefit not only to Australia but also bring in revenue from user countries.

One of the wonderful things about agriculture, and provisions generally, unlike the extractive industries, is that they do not consume their resource; rather, they increase it. This is a progressively attractive investment opportunity as over the last 20 years Australia has seen a significant growth in the value of agricultural land due to the augmented profitability of agriculture in Australia.

Australia’s position as a high-quality exporter with more than adequate self-sufficiency across the entire provisions’ spectrum makes it an attractive place to invest and to live. Many companies and people who work in the provisions area are choosing to make Australia their home as it offers them a wonderful lifestyle plus the opportunity to work within the fastest growing area of the world which is Southeast Asia.

Projects will become delayed as you need to deal with the approval process.

Timing is important, but understanding the resource and the local environment is equally important. Investors know they are in this for the long haul so they expect that the planning approval process has been undertaken with rigour and that the investment opportunity is well explained. The analysts which review projects in the energy and resources sector are specialists and expect to see quality proposals.
