In the heart of Africa’s livestock industry, there’s a story not just of business, but of purpose, a purpose born from one man’s relentless passion to see farmers equipped, empowered, and positioned for success.
For years, Fred, our CEO, carried a vision shaped by his own experiences navigating the realities of African agriculture. He had seen the challenges first-hand: poorly designed farms, untrained workers, mismanaged resources, and a fragmented livestock value chain struggling to meet its potential. He knew that the right knowledge, applied with strategy, was the missing link.
But Fred is not the kind to just dream. He acts.
From Passion to Purpose
That passion became FIAKARE — the capacity-building subsidiary of Agricultura na África dedicated to transforming the livestock industry through knowledge transfer, strategic farm development, and systemic value chain solutions.
Our “what we do”: farm set-up and design, land assessments, tailored training programs, staff and manager upskilling, and expert consultation, is only the surface. The deeper “why” is to address the industry’s biggest bottlenecks:
- Farms designed without scalability in mind.
- Workers lacking the technical skills for modern livestock management.
- Inefficient systems draining resources instead of driving profitability.
Impact That Speaks for Itself
In just a few years, FIAKARE has turned vision into tangible results:
- 10+ fully functional farms established across Ghana and Nigeria.
- 50+ farms strategically designed for long-term productivity.
- 2,000+ people trained; from farm workers to managers to aspiring agri-entrepreneurs.
Every farm set up is a blueprint for success. Every training session is an investment in Africa’s human capital. Every consultation is a step toward a stronger, more connected livestock value chain.
Por que isso importa
Africa’s livestock industry is poised for global competitiveness, but systemic challenges; from feed shortages to inefficient production models hold it back. FIAKARE’s mission is to dismantle these barriers by combining technical excellence com practical knowledge, ensuring farmers don’t just survive but thrive.
When a farm worker understands efficient feed management, productivity rises.
When a manager knows how to integrate sustainability into operations, profits grow.
When a farm is designed with the market in mind, the entire value chain benefits.
This is the ripple effect FIAKARE creates. An effect that moves beyond individual farms to strengthen communities, markets, and national economies.
A Call to the Industry
FIAKARE isn’t just building farms, we’re building the backbone of Africa’s livestock future. Fred’s vision is no longer just a dream; it’s a growing movement reshaping how livestock farming is done across the continent.
The industry doesn’t need more isolated efforts. It needs strategic, scalable, and sustainable capacity building, and that’s exactly what we deliver.
Because when knowledge meets action, Africa’s livestock potential becomes unstoppable.
