Introduction

The world economic context has evolved since the food price crisis of 2008, which helped raise the profile of the agricultural sector. However, with food prices remaining relatively high, and this trend expected to persist in the coming years, the interest of private investors in the sector has continued. At the same time, donor countries have shown more interest in leveraging their relatively limited funds for agriculture investment through investment and co-investment with the private sector, rather than simply administering grants. Consequently, both public and private sector investors have increasingly looked into pooling their resources through investment funds.
