Sustain Africa’s 2022-2024 programme in Ghana began in September 2022 and runs until the end of August 2024. Sustain Africa partner Yara committed 18,000MT of high quality YaraMila Actyva fertilizer worth $20 Million USD through its Grow Ghana programme, supported by USAID. The stock was accessed by 111.601 productive smallholder farmers in a scheme where farmers purchased 2 bags of fertilizer at market value and got one additional bag free.
The 2023-2024 programme ran from March 2023 and is now completing. It initially targeted 100,000 smallholder farmers each with 3 bags of rebated fertilizer from ETG, totalling 15.000MT of fertilizer. However ETG has successfully distributed an additional 11, 000mt of Urea under the program, which has also been successfully sold to farmers across the project implementation region by the agrodealers. In all 26,092.5mt of fertilizers (NPK, Urea and SoA) was committed and distributed by the end of the project. The focus was on maize, rice and soy farmers.
