What can make i) farming/fisheries/livestock rearing and other forms of food provision and ii) other roles in the food system a more attractive option for youth employment?
The egg and the chicken, which came first? so as in planting and the market.
FAMSMAT Limited is a youth driven start up which has been able to sell just about half acres of their two acres ginger farm. FAMSMAT Limited is green label certified, partner for Kumasi Institute of Tropical Agriculture, member of Ghana agro industries commodities and Ghana vegetarian association partner but cannot cut it to sustainable business yet.
The problem:
Youth don't see agriculture as a sustainable profitable business because there is no structured organisation the agric value chain Ghana.
The few organised companies should include start ups and all business should be legal binding as recommendation.
