| description | Ghana's agricultural sector is of strategic importance to the economy. It contributes about 21.4% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP), remains the largest employer. Government is seeking to unlock an estimated $20-billion-dollar potential market in the agri-business value chain in Ghana by 2030. Government of Ghana has implemented many flagship Programs aimed at increasing agricultural productivity and unlocking opportunities for potential and existing agribusinesses in prioritized value-chains, including rice, soybean, tomato, maize and poultry.
The Obeng Prime Agricultural Project is a collaboration between government and key sector institutions in Ghana to improve food production in Ghana. The collaboration is aimed at increasing food production to bridge the food supply gap in Ghana and boost the local economy. This project is being championed by Asian African Corporation. The approach is to partner and collaborate with key industry players in the value chains in rice, maize, soybean, poultry and tomato. |
