How are yields projected?

Realistically. Average harvest values are examined and then historical (ten year) price points used as a guide for future price points. Although past growth rates and price points are no guarantee for those in the future, the positive viewpoint here is that market values have consistently risen over the past century.

Why should I participate in ARGROw programs?

The program allows institutions and individuals benefit from large commercial scale forestry projects, formerly the exclusive preserve of large multinational forestry companies, pension funds, and other financial institutions. Participation in such sustainable forestry projects helps make a positive contribution to the environment as well as to your asset portfolio.

Is this a risky project?

All projects carry some forms of perceived and real risks. Smart money usually goes in the opposite direction of the crowd. For your peace of mind, public liability and also fire protection insurance has been purchased in all of our partner plantations. In addition, surplus stocks of trees are supplanted to replace any trees which do not grow for any given reason.

How are harvest profits calculated?

In a very conservative fashion. Even though harvest will only take place upon maturity, all values are calculated based on current market prices and do not use any escalated projection variables for future increase in prices. Therefore, your projected profits are viewed as the worse case scenario.

What if I need my money back before maturity?

As title holder of your trees, you are 100% entitled to sell your holdings off to anyone. The title is 100% fully transferable and our partners will be more than happy to offer your holdings to existing or new buyers who are considering this opportunity. Each day brings your portfolio closer to maturity (and greater worth) and as such there is no concern over the value of your trees declining.

What if the Argrow JH Program goes into liquidation?

Again, as title holder of the trees, you even have rights to adjacent property (for access to the plantation) and you will retain the title until the trees are ready for harvest. An optional holdings protection is also put in place upon entry into the project (for a fee) that will ensure your initial participation is secure when held until maturity.
