How does this work? does it work for small pieces of land like an 1/8th?


Diamond sells you a package , land + a greenhouse , they say they will manage the greenhouse for you and pay you proceeds in intervals. That was the pitch back then by their slick sales guy wearing a Goldish watch.


...that premise fails the first test, the common sense one. If the business is so lucrative, why would they manage it for third parties instead of going it in for themselves and drawing all the profits?
These are chaps out to sell you small pieces of semi-arid land which don't have property development appeal and greenhouses.
But as usual, some people will be suckered in.....the quail eggs thing comes to mind Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly

Just like any other wave, it will come to pass, and newer more trendier wave come, which will also pass for an even more newer one.

I suggested to them that I pay the 10% deposit, they manage the greenhouse for 1 year and give vacant possession thereafter. The balance being the profit from greenhouse operations. Wakakataa

Agribusiness is a great idea whose time is now. To get it right you must sort our source of water then other technology will follow esp greenhouse. Non permanent woodmade greenhouses are cost effective.
Like any other venture management is key and critical. Don't fall for the Diamond property ponzi schemes

I disagree. Agriculture is just the business in fashion. Bad weather and difficult community like the maasai. They grazed their cows all over my beans. Nkt
