I'v never consider investing in agriculture before maybe due to its low in returns, and I'v never believed is the safest investment. I will try to invest on pounder and see how it works, if it works fine then I can do more.
Not sure how legal is in all the countries you are in, but industrial hemp should be legal except the indian hemp which is used for the high volume of THC in their plants. So plant hemp because it will be the future in agriculture, will substitute plastic and wood.
