FPIP
Farm Productivity Improvement Program (FPIP) is a flagship program by Embett Agro to support smallholder farmers in maize, rice, millet, and soybean production in Northern Ghana. The program aims to improve yields and provide reliable access to markets. The key objective of the program is to enable smallholder farmers to have:
Access to farm mechanization services and agro inputs to improve productivity.
Access to credit, market, and financial inclusion interventions.
Secure supply chains in grains and cereals value chain for the business.
Improve disposable incomes of smallholder farmers and thereby accelerate rural prosperity.
The program also focuses on empowering women and young farmers to take up organic farming as a business. We deliberately ensure women and young farmers form at least 60% of our farmer base. These farmers are provided with pieces of training in the gap, gender, social, and environmental sustainability, and alternative livelihoods. The farmers are also trained on financial inclusion initiatives, emphasizing, and facilitating the formation and operationalization of VSLAs with linkages to Fintech, MFI, and Banking services.
