Portfolio Performance
The Private Land and Property Fund (PLPF) returned 1.5% for the
3 months to 30 June 2020. With a net asset value of $45m, it
invests through the wholesale Booster Private Land and Property
Portfolio (PLPP), which has delivered a performance of 9.2% p.a.
since inception in June 2017 (all figures before tax and after fees).
Portfolio Changes
There were no portfolio changes during the quarter.
Spotlight on Kiwi Fruit
PLPP owns a 20-hectare SunGold kiwifruit orchard in Kerikeri,
Northland, leased to Seeka. The property also includes ~14
hectares, mainly planted in lemons currently and with some
residual unplanted area.
Seeka is a publicly listed company on the NZX and offers
professional orchard management services to kiwifruit growers.
They have local experts with the experience and technical
resources to maximise production for all kiwifruit varieties. The 15
year lease includes the right to step into operatorship once the
developing orchard reaches maturity.
Kiwifruit is New Zealand's largest horticultural industry, and New
Zealand is the largest global exporter of kiwifruit by a significant
margin. The largest markets being China, Japan, Spain, Taiwan,
Germany and South Korea.
Demand for kiwifruit globally is expected to grow, and the industry
is well supported by strong brand development through Zespri.
Zespri is the world's largest marketer of kiwifruit selling into more
than 59 countries and managing 30% of global volume. This
marketing structure helps producers deliver scale and enables
Zespri to choose distributors to operate in each market effectively.
The deep-rooted vines of kiwifruit lower the need for irrigation
requirements and Kerikeri is not frost prone, both factors
moderating water need and environmental footprint. Orchards are
not land-hungry with data showing that between 2000 and 2010
the industry doubled production with only a 25% increase in land
use.
