The newly appointed Food and Agriculture minister, Hon. Dr. Bryan Acheampong since he assumed office on 4th April as sector Minister has engaged key stakeholders to afford him greater insights into the challenges, opportunities, and potentials in the sector.
According to him, the engagements have been structured to build consensus on charting pathways for achieving national targets of sustainable food security, promotion of exports and industrialisation.
He said the cross-section of stakeholders engaged so far include value chain actors of strategic commodities such as rice, soya, maize, tomato, and poultry.
“Working with people who bring different skill set and backgrounds to the table not only gives an opportunity to learn from their experiences, but also get the chance to hear their side of the story, their pain points, priorities, even the way they think” he said.
“As the minister for Food and Agriculture, I am considering the needs and interests of everyone involved, so taking the time and putting the effort into listening to everyone’s opinions and insights kept morale high across the meetings which kept everyone on the same path towards that shared vision” he added
