Ghana Welcomes 7th All African Conference on Animal Agriculture

The Ministry of Food and Agriculture (MoFA) is inviting private sector players to partner the government to deliver large-scale projects under the Rearing for Food and Jobs (RFJ) initiative.

“I am inviting private partners to partner government in the Rearing for Food and Jobs initiative because we are looking at it to be a private sector-led programme. So, all private sector actors are invited to join in the implementation of the RFJ,” the Director of the Animal Production Directorate of the Ministry, Mr Edwin Bekoe, told the private sector at the media launch of the 7th All African Conference on Animal Agriculture (AACAA) in Accra.

The conference, scheduled to take place at the Accra International Conference Centre from July 29 to August 2, 2019, is expected to bring together 600 local and international participants, made up of government officials, animal scientists, farmers, non-governmental organisations involved in livestock, international organisations and financial institutions, among others.
