Calico Capitals Investment Strategy is to originate investment opportunities in the South African Agricultural Sector which would not only generate respectable returns on investment but will also act as catalysts for further investment and expansion of an industry segment within the sector.
Strictly private and confidential
Agriculture contributes just less that 4% to the South African GDP.
However, when one considers the full agricultural value chain through from the soil to the shelf where agricultural goods, products and services are consumed and /or used then its true contribution raises to closer that 14 15% which makes the agricultural sector a critical contributor to the South African economy.
Is the core activity of the rural poor who are mainly African, but more importantly are the core group of persons faced by severe poverty, food insecurity, joblessness and disease. Over the past decade, the agriculture sector which contributes significantly and disproportionately to employment since the cost of creating a job opportunity is so much lower for the sector compared to mining, manufacturing, services and most other industries, has unfortunately shed well over 500,000 jobs. The sector has seen a decline in the number of commercial farmers from over 45,000 to under 38,000 in less than 10 years with dramatic drops in such sectors such as dairy, sugar cane farming and in the cotton value chain.

CHILDREN without Breakfast 19% (2,66million meals) CHILDREN without Lunch 51% (7,14million meals)
Number of Pupils at School 14 million
Food Waste CIRCA 9,04m tonnes / annum Total No of Meals Required 9,8million meals/day
Total Meals per annum 3,58 billion
Food Waste per meal 2,53 kgs
SAD REALITIES
Food production uses 70% of the world's fresh water, with the South African figure standing at around 65% of fresh water. As the 30th driest country in the world, this means any food that is wasted also wastes water.

ZERO WASTE FARMING
Zero Waste farmers use bacteria, algae and fungi to convert plant and animal waste into food, feed, fertilizer and fuel, generating over R36,000 per ha/year
If less than 50% of our arable land was converted to Zero Waste
Agriculture it is possible that small family farmers can produce all of South Africas energy needs in electricity and liquid fuel from ethanol, biogas and biodiesel processed by local cooperatives.
