Strengthening select agricultural value chains with interventions that boost productivity and profitability. Feed the Future programming in this area aims to increase the competitiveness of rice, maize, and soybean value chains, primarily in the initiative’s main zone of influence in northern Ghana. Projects include support for an outgrower business partnership model; incentivizing financial institutions to engage in the agricultural sector; and boosting productivity through application of technology in seed, soil, and water management. Reaching vulnerable communities in northern Ghana with interventions to strengthen resilience and nutrition. In this sphere of activities, Feed the Future works with local government authorities to target some of the most vulnerable communities in Ghana, with the aim of promoting a more diversified and nutritious diet, generating sources of income and savings, and improving water and sanitation practices. These activities seek to help households and communities that are generally not able to derive immediate benefit from more market-driven, value-chain approaches. Investing in research partnerships to improve agricultural productivity and nutrition. Here the delegation met with a range of Ghanaian institutions and researchers who are partnering with U.S. universities on issues related to productivity, irrigation, pest and disease control, diversifying sources of protein, and more. The delegation also met with beneficiaries from U.S. fellowship and award programs, which support talented young women and men to pursue a career in research and mentor the next generation of agricultural scientists and researchers. |
