  • What is Ghana’s soybean production potential?
  • Ghana’s soybean production potential stands at an impressive 700,000 tonnes per year. However, only about 26 percent of this potential is being realized. The cultivation area covers an estimated 102,000 hectares of the 250,000 hectares of land suitable for production countrywide.
  • Can Ghana be self-sufficient in soyabean production?
  • With support from the government, development partners and input and output market players through a PPP arrangement, Ghana can be self-sufficient in soyabean production with opportunity for exporting soyabean to niche markets in Europe and Asia.
  • How many soyabean grain processing companies are there in Ghana?
  • There are 12 major soyabean grain processing companies in Ghana with capacity to process about 170,120 Mt per year. Two of the companies (Ghana Nuts with 60,000 Mt, and Vestor Oil 24,000 Mt) have solvent extractors, with combined annual solvent extraction capacity of 84,400 Mt (see Table 1).
