'Now is the time to invest in agriculture' - Syndex CEO

With the primary industries proving to be one of the economy's strongest sectors during the COVID-19 pandemic, there is no better time to invest in agriculture, says Ross Verry, chief executive of agribusiness investment company Syndex.

"I think this is a very good time to invest in agriculture, it's now our largest export industry [and] it's been the least affected," Verry told Rural Exchange. 

"Food security is becoming more and more important globally and over the years we've seen that agriculture has been a very stable investment class through world crises."
