Description:
I am an entrepreneur in the field of technology from last 6 years, i holds Master Degree from Coventry University, UK and i holds couple of patents into my credit.

Now, i am entering in to a new venture in agri-business, planned for Sheep/Goat Farming in scientific and organized manner in a big scale in my place near Bangalore. Along with my family I was with this business in small numbers ( a flock of 125) and now i wants to take it in a scientific manner.

In INDIA, this business is not advanced and not organized and the market is huge and the farmers are unable to supply the demand and the production is decreasing day by day.

I was doing this business along with my parents in my place in a land of 2 acres. I have taken this land on contract basis for 3 years. Flock was about 125. I was getting a good profit of about 3.4 Lakhs per cycle of 15 months for an initial investment of 4 lakhs including land rent, sheep purchasing cost, shed, fodder development, other fodder purchasing, etc .Now the contract is over and i am looking to take this business in a big manner.
I have visited couple of Sheep/Goat Farms in Karnataka and Tamilnadu. Also, i have visited couple of Sheep Farms in Metz area in France during last November.
After a thorough Research on this project and consulting the Professors of Agricultural University of Karnataka in Bangalore and the Directors of several Departments pertaining to this venture, i have decided to take this project as my lifetime project where i can see lot of potential.

I have a sufficient knowledge, labors and the guidance from the Professors from Agriculture University, Bangalore.

Investment can be of

1. Equity based model where the revenue will be shared.
2. As a loan model for the period of 6 years..
