Investments in nature is a new trend of investment in the twenty-first century. The key aim of nature investments is environmental conservation with a long-term goal for deriving a financial value for those investments. Some of the outstanding nature investment initiatives include the forestation of areas without forest cover.
Trees that grow in such places are those that have a proven ability to grow in harsh climatic conditions where no other type of trees can thrive. Such vegetation types that may be grown in areas with a challenge of climate can include the bamboos, the acacia, the blue gum trees among others. Here we, therefore, see that the key considerations for any tree that will be used in this investment type are its ability to grow in adverse climatic conditions as well as its ability to grow within a very short period of time.
One of the main aims for forestation of areas lacking vegetation cover we have established is to conserve those areas from adverse effects of deforestation such as soil erosion. Since we also have seen that the type of vegetation to be used should be that which exhibits the traits for fast growth, the implication will be that there will be a faster return on investment for the investors.
The consideration also has to be for the vegetation type that has more than one value for the investors. Looking at the list of the most grown trees in nature investments, you will realize that some of those trees can be used as alternatives for timber and this will ensure that people no longer have to deforest areas that are already covered with trees that are chiefly used for providing timber. The vegetation can also be used as fodder for the livestock. The trees grown can also offer good source of extracts that can be used in the making of medicines and perfumes.
In nature investments, we also have another product called plantation management. In this investment type, the aim is to manage existing plantations by the use of the latest technological tools and ideas. The farmers and plantation owners are thus offered an opportunity to reap maximumly from their existing plantations within a very short time of investment.
It should also be noted that this investment type only seeks to manage plantations and is not responsible for offering any agricultural advice beyond what is grown in the plantation. Of importance, also is the fact that plantation management can include the creation of the plantation and the management of the same. The farmer or the plantation owner has to, however, offer specific information on what ought to be grown in the plantation, the mode of management and the period within which the management should be carried out on their plantation.
