In some rural areas here investors are invited to finance the planting of crops. My favorite crop is corn because it takes only 3 months from planting to harvesting which means you invest now and you earn the profit within that short period. But before you invest you have to be sure that the agreement is approved by the local community leader so that everyone in the informal contract is protected.
There are varied schemes for the crop. One scheme is to plant the corn and when nearing the time of harvesting the entire crop is sold and the buyer will be the one to harvest. There’s also the scheme of planting only and the harvesting is an investment of another person. With that kind of scheme the farmers have a crop even if they do not have the capital for the planting.
