The agricultural advocacy and training organization, Agrihouse Foundation is calling on  government to set aside every July 1st as National Poultry Day to raise awareness on the consumption of local poultry products and new innovations aimed at revamping the local poultry industry.

The organization believes that creating the National Poultry  Day could possibly spark an industrial evolution in the agricultural sub-sector which is expected to boost local poultry production to limit the millions of dollars spent on importing poultry.

The CEO of Agrihouse Foundation, Ms Alberta Nana Akyaa Akosa made the call during the launch of the 2023 edition of the Chicken Festival at a ceremony in Accra.

Ms Alberta Nana Akyaa Akosa said  after successfully running the Chicken Festival into its 3rd year, it is now her  desire to join the  Ministry of Agriculture and other key industry decision-makers in their ardent quest for the Ghana Chicken Festival to be nationally recognized and celebrated as National Poultry Day.

She expressed  her gratitude to the Ministry of Food and Agriculture, USDA, USAID, NFFAWAG and the National Poultry Farmers Association of Ghana for their support

She however appealed to corporate organizations and international development organizations to support her foundation’s programs to enable it continue to provide solutions to fill in the present existing gaps in the national poultry supply chain.
