The Chamber of Aquaculture Ghana is facilitating an ongoing series of industry visits with the Aquaculture Project Team of the 24Hr Authority, creating opportunities for the team to engage directly with aquaculture businesses and better understand the realities of the sector.
As part of the ongoing visitation, the team recently spent three days engaging with Chamber members and other industry players in and around the Sogakope enclave.
The visits included Fish & Feed Limited, Dongazy Farms and Flosell Farms, where the team interacted with farm operators, observed production activities and gained firsthand insight into the opportunities and challenges shaping their businesses.
The engagement also extended to Tropo Farms Ltd., with a visit to the company’s office in Accra for discussions on its operations and perspectives on the development of Ghana’s aquaculture industry.
Across the engagements, producers highlighted key issues affecting production and expansion, including high energy and input costs, access to finance, land litigation, market demand, infrastructure and environmental concerns.
At the same time, the visits revealed opportunities to unlock growth through solar energy solutions, species diversification, stronger farmer collaboration and community development.
For the Chamber, these ongoing visits are an important part of ensuring that policy and development conversations are informed by what is happening on the ground.
As the visitation continues, the Chamber looks forward to connecting the 24Hr Authority with more members across the aquaculture value chain and creating space for practical industry perspectives to shape future interventions.
The conversation is moving beyond policy. It is reaching the farms, the businesses and the people building Ghana’s aquaculture industry.
