JoyBusiness Roundtable Discussion - Ghana’s Poultry Problem: Why Farmers Need More Than Govt Support

Ghana's ambition to achieve poultry self-sufficiency faces major challenges despite initiatives such as the Nkoko Nkintikiti programme. Experts say addressing high feed costs, strengthening collaboration among farmers, researchers and veterinarians, improving financing options and implementing long-term policies will be critical to building a competitive poultry industry. While the programme is seen as a step towards reducing dependence on imports, stakeholders argue that sustained investment, coordination and a clear roadmap are needed to transform Ghana's poultry sector and improve food security.
