Generated from EDGAR primary sources

Sustainable Farmland Growth Fund (AUD) is a Cayman Islands-domiciled farmland investment vehicle that raised $120.2M from 2 investors under Rule 506(b) and Section 3(c)(1). The filing was submitted April 23, 2018 by Hancock Natural Resource Group, Inc. as executive officer. Minimum investment is stated as $1, though no first sale date was disclosed.

This farmland fund follows a typical institutional pattern for agriculture real assets: 506(b) exemption, offshore domicile, and 3(c)(1) structure limiting it to 99 accredited investors. The nominal $1 minimum and large average check size ($60.1M per investor) indicate an institutional or anchor-investor vehicle rather than a retail-accessible platform.

Questions About Sustainable Farmland Growth Fund (AUD)

Each answer is built from the values on the SEC filing and the AltStreet ledger, not from the issuer's marketing.

What is Sustainable Farmland Growth Fund (AUD)?

Sustainable Farmland Growth Fund (AUD) is a Cayman Islands entity organized in 2018 that filed a Form D with the SEC on April 23, 2018 as a other investment fund.

Is Sustainable Farmland Growth Fund (AUD) legit?

AltStreet does not rate legitimacy; it reports the public record. Sustainable Farmland Growth Fund (AUD) filed a Form D with the SEC on April 23, 2018 claiming Rule 506(b), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(1), Section 3(c)(7).

AltStreet's enforcement record (SEC, FINRA and state actions) shows no action naming the issuer as of today. The issuer is linked to Sustainable Farmland Growth Fund, which AltStreet has reviewed. Before investing, confirm the filing on EDGAR, check the seller's registration on FINRA BrokerCheck, and read the offering documents, which a Form D does not include.

Is Sustainable Farmland Growth Fund (AUD) registered with or approved by the SEC?

No. A Form D is a notice that an issuer is selling securities under an exemption from registration, and the SEC does not review, approve, or pass on the merits of the offering. The filing shows that Sustainable Farmland Growth Fund (AUD) claimed Rule 506(b), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(1), Section 3(c)(7) and disclosed the items the form requires, such as the amount sold, the minimum investment, related persons, and anyone paid to sell the securities.
