At Cushman & Wakefield Core, our Agriculture Valuation & Advisory services aim to address the specific challenges of the UAE's agricultural sector, where arid conditions and environmental sustainability are major concerns. With a focus on maximising asset value and adhering to local regulations, we provide comprehensive valuation services that help clients navigate the complexities of agriculture in the UAE.
In the UAE, agricultural land valuation requires a deep understanding of water management, sustainability practices and the integration of advanced technologies such as hydroponics, vertical farming and water-efficient irrigation systems. Our team’s expertise in assessing these elements ensures that our clients can optimise the use of their land, improve crop yields and enhance the long-term viability of their agricultural investments.
Agricultural activities in the UAE are heavily regulated by the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (MOCCAE), and compliance with these standards is essential for ensuring sustainability and food security. Our valuation process considers key regulations related to land use, water rights and environmental impact.
Our advisory services include financial projections and investment strategies to ensure informed decisions on a wide range of agricultural projects.
Agricultural property valuation services include:
- Land valuation that incorporates location, zoning and water rights that are crucial for agriculture.
- Soil and water resource assessment to ensure suitability for agricultural activities in arid conditions.
- Evaluation of infrastructure needs, including irrigation systems and technology for sustainable farming.
- Market demand analysis, considering UAE’s reliance on imports and the potential for local production.
- Risk assessment focusing on compliance with the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (MOCCAE) and other regulations, climate resilience and food security policies.
- Financial analysis and investment advisory for funding strategies in agricultural projects, including hydroponics and vertical farming.
As a RICS-regulated firm, Cushman & Wakefield Core conducts all valuations in compliance with the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) Valuation - Global Standards (the ‘Red Book’) and the International Valuation Standards Council (IVSC). Our reports are accepted by major banks across the UAE and are widely used for both regulatory and transactional purposes.
