Agrohao Ghana Limited, a leading manufacturer and distributor of quality crop solutions in Ghana, has taken a significant step towards empowering women in agribusiness by partnering with Agrihouse Foundation for the 7th Gathering of the Royals and the Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings Legacy Honours.
In a statement, Lian Feng Xiang, Managing Director of Agrohao Ghana Limited, reaffirmed the company’s commitment to supporting farmers with innovative agricultural solutions, stating:
“At Agrohao Ghana, we believe that empowering women in agribusiness is key to achieving food security and economic growth. Women play a critical role in food production, yet they often face challenges in accessing resources, technology, and knowledge. Our partnership with Agrihouse Foundation reflects our commitment to providing women farmers with the knowledge, tools, and high-quality agrochemicals they need to enhance productivity and sustainability.
By working together, we hope to create opportunities that will not only benefit individual farmers but also strengthen the entire agricultural value chain. We are proud to support this initiative, which aligns with our vision of transforming Ghana’s agricultural sector through innovation and education. Our goal is to ensure that every farmer, regardless of gender, has access to the right products and information to improve yields and build a prosperous future.”
Alberta Nana Akyaa Akosa, Executive Director of Agrihouse Foundation, also highlighted the significance of Agrohao Ghana’s support, expressing her gratitude:
“Having Agrohao Ghana as a key partner is a great boost to our mission of breaking barriers that limit women’s growth in agribusiness. Their expertise in agrochemicals, combined with their commitment to farmer education, will play a crucial role in equipping women agripreneurs with the necessary resources and knowledge to thrive in the industry.
This partnership will ensure that more women farmers gain access to the right agricultural inputs, training, and market opportunities, ultimately leading to higher productivity, improved livelihoods, and a more resilient agricultural sector.
Together, we are not just supporting women in agriculture—we are shaping the future of agribusiness in Ghana. This collaboration represents a powerful step toward creating lasting change in the industry, ensuring that women farmers and agripreneurs have the tools and opportunities they need to succeed.”
