The Presidential Initiatives in Agriculture and Agribusiness (PIAA) is designed to drive H.E John Dramani Mahama’s vision of agricultural transformation through a three-pillar framework, namely:
1. Feed Ghana Programme – This pillar focused on improving national food security, boosting household nutrition, increasing productivity of staple crops, and promoting school and community farms. The goal is to prioritize local production, reduces reliance on food imports and ensure every household has access to affordable and nutritious food.
2. Feed the Industry Programme – Agriculture is positioned as a driver of industrialization under this pillar. It develops strong linkages between farmers and industries by supporting value chains for agro-processing and exports. The programme would ensure reliable raw material supply for factories, enhances agro-exports, and creates jobs in processing, packaging, and distribution. This pillar also promotes innovation and partnerships with private sector players to strengthen Ghana’s competitiveness in regional and global markets.
3. Agriculture Investment & infrastructure Development – Sustainable agriculture requires strong infrastructure. This pillar provides the backbone by investing in irrigation systems, warehouses, input production facilities, mechanization centers, rural roads, and digital logistics solutions. It also improves access to finance, enabling farmers and agribusinesses to expand operations. This pillar is expected to lay a firm foundation for modern, resilient, and inclusive agricultural growth.
