Fresh from raising almost $1 billion for its agricultural funds – including a large commitment from Rest Super – sustainable food investor Cibus Capital is looking to acquire a portfolio of farms where it can leverage off the growing demand for carbon offsets.

“In the natural capital space, we see a huge opportunity to take degraded farmland and effectively regenerate it with native plantings as well as undertake regenerative farming,” said Cibus investment director Damon Petrie.
