If you participate in the 2007 Timbercorp Almond Project under this offer, you will become an almond grower in a commercial almond orchard that is expected to enter commercial production from early 2010. You will lease from Timbercorp at least two allotments of land (Almondlots), of approximately 0.25 hectares each, developed with all of the improvements required to grow almonds, including Almond Trees, irrigation infrastructure and an allocation of irrigation water. You will engage Timbercorp to manage your Almondlots, and harvest and sell your Almonds, on your behalf. You will be entitled to the net proceeds from the sale of your Almonds during the 23-year term of the Project

 

Industry Outlook

The outlook for the global almond market is optimistic with the industry demonstrating strong fundamentals over recent years.

Almond prices are currently at a 7-year high despite recent record crops with current Timbercorp Growers receiving above forecast returns
