Notes
Agriterra Ltd is an AIM listed agricultural company with five
divisions: beef, maize, cocoa, fruit and palm oil. Its cattle
ranching business, Mozbife, has a herd in excess of 5,450 head, a
land holding of over 21,000 hectares, a feedlot, a 4,000 head per
month capacity abattoir and retail units. In addition to selling
meat from its own herds, throughput for the feedlot and abattoir is
supplemented with cattle bought in from local communities. The
Company also owns a proximal banana plantation and macadamia
orchard.
The Company's maize buying and milling operations, DECA and
Compagri, are located in Chimoio and Tete in central and
north-western Mozambique respectively. These collect maize from
circa 350,000 farmers using the Company's own vehicle fleet,
process it into maize meal, the African staple, and then sell it
back to the local market, into supermarkets and to the World Food
Programme.
Agriterra's cocoa business is based in Sierra Leone, through its
100% subsidiary Tropical Farms Limited, which includes buying,
trading and production operations. The Company holds over 1,200
hectares of land for cocoa cultivation and also has a strong buying
register with three main hub stores, 41 satellite stores and a
direct buying register of more than 3,500 farmers across the
country. Its strategy is to establish itself as a secure,
sustainable and traceable source of supply to meet the requirements
of the major cocoa consumers who are placing increased emphasis in
this area.
