Due to the growing issue of global climate change and an ever decreasing supply of fossil fuels, The EU has put in place the biggest law change in the history of the fuel industry which comes into effect in just two years’ time. The EU Renewable Energy Directive states that ALL EU member states must fulfil at least 20% of its total energy needs from renewables, such as biomass wood pellets, by 2020.  Along with this, they have also stated that at least 10% of all transport fuels come from renewables by this time as well.  This is by far the biggest and most positive step against global warming and climate change in a very long time and they aren’t stopping there, by 2030 this figure of 20% will rise to 27% to further establish the EU as one of the global leaders in the renewable energy market. For more information on the EU energy directive please see the link below which will take you directly to the European Commission website. https://ec.europa.eu/energy/en/topics/renewa

Ecocrops International is pleased to announce the continued expansion of their Estonian investment operations with the purchase of another forestry site in Estonia and has stated that they will be continuing their expansion process later on in the year with further acquisitions throughout Estonia.  The continued expansion of their European Biomass Project in Estonia is due to the ever-increasing demand for biomass wood pellets throughout the EU due to the legislation coming in at the start of 2020, whereby all EU countries have been set a target that they must meet for the reduction of their reliance on fossil fuels.

It is well known that over the last 30 years Forestry has outperformed traditional investment vehicles such as stocks, bonds and property, consistently showing investors higher returns. Forestry is a strong inflation hedge because timber prices continue to float above the rate of inflation even in the face of difficult economic downturns and poor performance elsewhere. The IPD annual Forestry Index, 133 commercial forests returned 18.4% last year and have averaged a staggering 21% a year since 2010 which is outgrowing the FTSE 100 share index which returned an average of 7.7% and commercial property which made   approximately 9-10%. So why does forestry do so well? Low Volatility Forestry gives investors a level of price stability over a longer term period that is more comparable to fixed income instruments as opposed to higher performing equity instruments. Because trees continue to grow if the price for the timber is low then you can simply let the trees continue to
