At Wuntira Agri Foundation, engagement with our #farmer and #shea #cooperatives started this month with the Bang-Bebu Farmer and Shea cooperative in the Kuduli community. Visiting them with our in-house #agronomist to listen to them and take #data on the results of their crop yield, harvest, and post-harvest conditions, as well as their sales, aids us in helping them find solutions to problems tailored to their needs.
According to some of the data collected, the average number of bags of harvested crops is only one (1) bag of any staple crop that members have cultivated. According to members, this is mainly due to the 2024 change in the rain pattern, the lack of quality seeds and farm inputs, and other challenges they face.
