Problem Statement:
Gateway Feeds and Farms aims to address two interconnected challenges in Ghana’s agricultural sector: the high cost and inconsistent quality of livestock and poultry feed, and limited, inefficient market access for smallholder farmers. Many farmers face rising feed prices and unreliable supply, which reduces productivity and profitability in livestock and poultry production. At the same time, large volumes of agricultural by-products and residues—such as cassava peels, maize bran, and rice husks—remain underutilised or are discarded, contributing to environmental pollution rather than being converted into valuable inputs. Additionally, smallholder farmers struggle to access reliable, transparent markets for their products, leading to low and volatile farm-gate prices, post-harvest losses, and weak bargaining power. These challenges undermine rural incomes, constrain food security, and limit the growth of a sustainable, circular agricultural economy in Ghana.
