Summit Ag Investors
Brazil Funds
Summit Brazil, LLC entered the Brazilian marketplace in 2012 with the acquisition of 11,000 acres (5,500 tillable) of farmland in the state of Mato Grosso, and in 2014, Summit Brazil Renewables I, LLC, partnering locally in the construction of a 60 million gallon corn ethanol production plant. Most recently, the addition of Summit Sao Manoel, LLC in 2016 has allowed investors to gain exposure to farmland in the uniquely positioned state of Amapa. As land values in the country continue to improve due to an increasing local demand for livestock production, food crops and corn-based ethanol, our farmland and renewables projects remain strategically aligned with local operators and government entities to secure additional investment opportunities. Through extensive due diligence and an ability to leverage strong regional partnerships, we have experienced significant success in building a valuable investment platform in Brazil.

Infrastructure Development
The continued development of Brazil’s transportation infrastructure is allowing for additional agricultural opportunities.
Local Demand
Demand for grains for use in livestock production, soybean crushing, ethanol production and other uses is driving land and crop values upward.
Yield Production
Larger yields are becoming commonplace as advances in seed technology and input methods evolve to match the unique climate and soils present in the region.
Environmental Factors
Brazil’s climate is ideal for grain production, making two harvests annually possible with natural rainfall, or three harvests annually with irrigation.
Our Approach
We mitigate risk in our farmland and renewables funds through a strategy that limits complexities and downsides while creating multiple avenues for appreciation. This allows us to work closely with our regional partners and local tenants to be profitable.
Purchase Wisely
Summit Brazil seeks to purchase ground in developed areas that are conducive to double row cropping. We then aim to maximize usable farming area by developing further land already located within the property.
Hire Local Experts
We partner with experienced local operators to manage the land and ensure operational quality. Our land is leased only to high-integrity entities that employ industry best practices.
Extend Relationships
Our team performs extensive legal, environmental, social and accounting due diligence to ensure that our beneficial relationships are prosperous and well-maintained.
