This publication is the outcome of a study which assessed the impact of public investment ventures on new agricultural and horticultural development. While there are a range of different types of investments in agriculture available to the public, the study focussed upon investment ventures that are largely tax-driven.
The study involved identifying and analysing a wide range of agricultural public investment ventures offered since 1983. Implications and conclusions are made assessing the likely impact of agricultural public investment ventures upon industry development and, in particular, the development of new industries.
