Duxton Capital to merge private funds into listed agriculture empire

Duxton Capital is merging its unlisted agricultural empire into its main fund, creating an asset management business with a $298 million portfolio and – hopefully – ending many of the problems dogging the business.

In a term sheet sent to fund managers, the company’s listed Duxton Farms vehicle said it was planning a “transformational merger” and acquiring the assets held in the firm’s fruit, orchard, walnut and apiary businesses.
