Key Results
Grow Africa and IDH have supported the Ghana Industrial Cassava Stakeholder’s Platform with a two year grant to support organisational development of the platform. The platform used the funds to secure office space, recruit focal point, establish modus operandi, and development of a 5 year operational strategy.
Also in Ghana, Grow Africa signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Private Enterprise Foundation (PEF) to collaborate through development of business cases in priority value chains. PEF identified poultry as one of the priority value chains and is working to promote commercially through broiler production at low cost using locally available and cheaper feed ingredient options.
