Development Bank Ghana and Opportunity International partners to empower smallholder farmers

Development Bank Ghana and Opportunity International have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to jointly support the country's smallholder farmers to boost agricultural productivity and food security in Ghana.

This collaborative effort aims to address the challenges faced by smallholder farmers, including limited access to markets, inadequate financial support, and low productivity. By combining their expertise and resources, Development Bank Ghana and Opportunity International seek to provide comprehensive support to these farmers, paving the way for sustainable growth and food security in local communities.

The partnership will focus on enhancing productivity, improving market access, and providing vital financial support to smallholder farmers. By doing so, it aims to increase crop yields, improve quality, and ensure a stable and profitable income stream for farmers. The initiative also seeks to provide tailored financial services, including loans and savings products, to help farmers manage risks and invest in their businesses.
