Peasant Farmers Association of Ghana

The Peasant Farmers Association of Ghana (PFAG) was established in 2005 by a group of small-scale farmers who recognized the need for a unified, empowered voice to advocate for policy changes that perpetuate the poverty of rural farmers. Prior to PFAG’s formation, smallholder farmers in Ghana had suffered silently under unfavorable national agricultural policies that threatened their livelihoods and dignity.

Since its inception, PFAG has evolved to become the apex farmer-based non-governmental organization in Ghana, with the mandate to advocate for pro-poor agriculture and trade policies and other issues affecting the livelihoods of smallholder farmers. The association’s vision is “a life of dignity for the peasant farmer,” and its mission focuses on promoting a conducive environment for the growth and development of small-scale farmers through advocacy, capacity building, knowledge management, strategic partnerships, entrepreneurship development, and membership strengthening.
