Before the commencement of this program i preferred the “solo player” working ethics and was so full of individualism. But the few cup games/exercises helped me to understand the importance and impact of teamwork, and collaboration. It also helped me appreciate how significant the imperatives of planning and discipline are. Team wheat planned and executed the plan accordingly and eventually the outcome was justified.
Great opportunities.. and mind-renewing training…I am excited for the future already my fellow billionaires and Entrepreneurs…
Congratulations to us all for
The project’s implementing partners were, Research Triangle Institute (RTI), Cuttington University, University of Liberia, University of Michigan, and North Carolina State University. ASNAPP/AIC served as the consortium lead on this project and performed various roles which included:
It is envisaged that it will help increase the volume of vegetables available and significantly close price variations due to seasonality thereby reducing agricultural contribution to inflation, and reducing import of vegetables to Ghana.
Greenhouse Production in Ghana increased from about 1ha in 2008 to about 4ha in 2015-2017 to about 23ha in 2021. Ghana EXIM (GEXIM) Bank funded Greenhouses constitute 56% of all Greenhouses in Ghana and this can reduce tomato imports by 2% using tomato import from Burkina Faso as the reference.
Within the post-harvest system, the packinghouse served as a control point where quality management could be applied to assure a reliable supply of produce of good quality. Packhouses also served as sites for the effective implementation of strategies designed to eliminate or minimize microbial, chemical, and physical contamination.
Entrepreneurship for Opportunity Actualization (EopAct) was a USAID funded program implemented in five African Countries (Ghana, South Africa, Zambia, Senegal and Liberia) as part of the Africa Lead II internship-based Agribusiness Leadership Program (ALP). The program sought to provide distinctive services to graduates, youth and women to build their technical, managerial and vocational capacities to fit into agricultural value chains, job markets and business opportunities capacities.
ECoSIB sought to increase availability and accessibility of superior quality seeds to smallholder farmers through scaling up volume of breeder and foundation seeds and develop a cadre of seed business entrepreneurs with the requisite skills to engage in commercial production and distribution of superior quality seeds in Ghana.
The project delivered an inclusive multi-disciplinary value chain intervention through a consortium of 7 partners providing market access, agro-inputs business solutions, market information systems and technical training and FBO strengthening.
