Investment Opportunity
in ranchland in Paraguay - South America
Investment project for converting virgin forest to
fattening ranch
Extensive system of fattening cattle on pasture
implanted
The projected cattle establishment comprises a surface
area of 9,600 acres., The grass species to implant is the Gatton panic, due to
its adaptation to the soil and climate of the region.
Taking into account the surface and the forage supply
estimated is recommended that the livestock activity is the wintering the business
is buying male calves and steers selling for fridges.
The age of calves is an average of 7 months with an
average weight of 250 kg and the sale of steers at an age of 22-25 months
average weight of 460 kg.
Fattening cycle is estimated at 18 months, sales
starting with at 15 months and ending at 18 months.
LAND CLEARING
The clearing authorized by SEAM (Ministry of Environment) and INFONA (Instito National Forest) is the snail type, we will use laminated type land clearing, then dredge technique Aradora and machinery leveling with despalitada to prepare 200 hectares of land to produce hay. Estimated production of hay: 4,000 bales of 400 kg., To be used in times of fodder shortage.
The disassemble was approved
by the authorized entity
is going to meet environmental
standards lar
establishing biological
corridors
forest reserves
forest reserves for
paleocauses
forest strips is left between
pastures
PASTURE
The
estimated burden that will withstand the pasture is 300 Kg / Ha. A full charge
4,000 cattle
WATER
The
estimated water consumption of 60
liters. per head. With 4,000 head, the daily water need be 240,000 liters.
WELLS
ARTESIAN
Because the
farm is located on the aquifer Yrenda recommended drilling two artesian wells
180-220 feet deep, more than 200 meters apart to prevent theft of flow between
wells. With two wells would have a rate of 27,000 liters. time, enough to cover
water demand 4,000 head.
GENERATOR
SET AND ELECTROPUMPS
It will be
necessary to have a generator set to provide electrical energy the two
electropumps and housing.
With two
electric pumps are estimated volumetric pumping of 27,000 liters / hour. With 9
pm. cover pumping daily demand of 240,000 liters.
WIRED
Will be
required approximately 135 km. Wiring for the division of the 4,000 hectares of
pasture paddocks of 50 ha This amount will vary according to apotreramiento and
alleys.
STOCKYARDS
Each
paddock will have a yard for the management of the estate, each corral will
have a sprue.
CORRALS
They built
two corrals, one for each module of 2,000 hectares
The main
module is designated as Central and secondary module as Retiro.
HOUSING
For Central
is recommended building six semi-detached houses for foreman, female chef, two
pawns, tractor driver, charged with maintaining water supply.
A house
with an office for the manager
A home
for the owners.
A shed for machinery.
Retirement two semi-detached houses for the retreat
charge and a pawn.
It is
essential to water harvesting and storage cisterns.
BOULDERS
AND MACHINERY
Pickup
truck 4 x 4 for use of the General Manager
Cuaciclón 4 x 4 for inspection sprue, reservoirs and
pipes. It will be used by the maintenance man water supply.
Tractor 4 x
4 of 110 HP, to construction of internal roads (approx. 80 km.) Preparation of 200 hectares of land Bale.
Desalijo
building material for wiring, corralones and corrals.
Implements
several indispensable for the tractor perform detailed above.
Once we
list the plot of bales will require the purchase of implements for producing
bales (mower, rake and baler rake)
OPERATING
COST
In the same details
the estimated cost once the farm is completely developed and full load (4,000 cattle)
For monthly operating
costs were prorated veterinary costs and estimated an average fuel consumption.
To get to the annual
operating cost multiplied 12monthly costs and the Christmas bonus was added.
Sale of steers the
exporting firm of meat
The estimated annual
mortality of 3%.
A price of 3.05 U.S. $
/ kg per hook. (Chilean market price) Weight 460 kg meat
Freight: to fridges of
Asuncion.
ESTIMATION RESULTS
As estimated fattening
time is 18 months, it took that period of time and not 12 months to provide an
estimate of results.
The estimated Operating
Income in 18 months, is US $ 585.000. Expected improvement in livestock prices,
if you register the expected increase the Operating Income would have a
significant improvement.
RECOMMENDATION
To be more confident
in providing calf and get greater utility in the cattle business is recommended
as a second step to form a breeding unit.
I have projects valued at U.S. $ 10 million. Includes the purchase of natural land and develop. Or purchase of ranchland all formed. Purchase of cattle. Operating capital. I seek investors with that amount of capital
the cattle business is very safe. Beef has high demand. Paraguay's ninth largest exporter of beef. In addition to operate the land and get good economic results. The price of land is seen in 10-30% annually in the Paraguayan Chaco. The time is now to buy land and develop. Because the laws are flexible still. I constituted corporations to foreign investors. Bearer share. 97% corresponds to the investor. I as administered 3%. Lands have been undervalued. It is important to buy large amount of land. In the medium term is going double its capital
The lands that I choose. Yrenda are on the aquifer, fresh water. Also there is oil in the Chaco. Choose the most productive land. In the area. cattle gains 220 kilograms in 18 months. Is a very safe and profitable on a large scale
It is a silvopastoral system. With forest reserve. Biological corridors are performed. Do not touch the paleocauces. Is shared pasture with trees. In the image is very impressive. But studies with biological corridors, ropagates more wildlife,this indicates that the Chaco forest is very dense. We work on balance, respect the reserves, watercourses, wildlife. The world needs food and Paraguay can not fall behind. With a good management plan and environmental impact assessment can be produced sustainably without harming nature
