New business models and opportunities - farm lots with high income potential with high value crops

Every generation needs a revolution - an entrepreneurial revolution

Our initial response to the Laguna agri properties were no deal.   (As we have focussed on memorial business and subdivision.  We thought of farm lots which are currently  selling between P2,000 to 3,000.

Our attention was caught by the high value tree farming espoused by Ben Mead an Australian who established Iba Botanicals, and UAP (United Agar Philippines ) and Dr. Ephraim  Cercado of San Joe DelMonte.  -  mostly videos at YT.   A top grade Agar wood in the wild can be sold for as high as $100,000 (P5 to 6m)  Dr. Ephraim claims a 1 hectare of Agar plantation (plenty of caveats of course)

can earn as much as P40.000,000 after 5 years.  

Why  not incorporate the high value tree and crop farming to the farm plots business concept:
