A future domestic commercial market for large volumes of alpaca fleece is easily envisioned and plans for a national fiber co-op are well under way. The potential market for an animal with the characteristics of the alpaca is vast. Alpacas are loved by their owners and respected by those who process or wear products made from their fleece. They are truly the world's finest livestock investment. A major investment benefit of owning alpacas is based on the concept of compounding.
Savings accounts earn interest, which if left in the account, adds to principal.
The increased principal earns additional interest, thereby compounding the investor's return. Alpacas reproduce almost every year, and about one-half of their babies are females. When you retain the offspring in your herd, they begin producing babies. This is Alpaca Compounding. Tax-deferred wealth building is another Alpaca advantage.
