Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>About 70 per cent of poultry farms in the Dormaa Municipality have collapsed due to lack of soya beans and wheat brans to feed the birds, Madam Justina Owusu-Banahene, the Bono Regional Minister has said.<\/b><\/p>\n

Describing it as worrying, the regional minister said the situation had contributed to an increase in thievery and petty theft as well as resurfacing of illegal mining in the Municipality.<\/p>\n

As a larger producer of eggs and poultry products in the region, Madam Owusu-Banahene said most of the young people engaged in the industry had been rendered jobless.<\/p>\n

She said the Russian-Ukraine war and the COVID-19 pandemic were the contributory factors to the shortage of the poultry feeds, saying because of the war, the nation could no longer import soya bean and wheat from Ukraine.<\/p>\n

Madam Owusu-Banahene made this known when she was speaking at the opening session of the 2023 Annual Conference and exhibition of the Insurance Brokers Association of Ghana (IBAG), underway in Sunyani.<\/p>\n

The five-day conference, being attended by more than 200 insurance brokers and companies is on the theme, \u201cThe Effect of the Global Economic Challenges on the Ghanaian Insurance Industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe poultry industry in the Dormaa Municipality and the region by extension is suffering seriously from the devastating effect of the Russian-Ukraine war and the COVID-19,\u201d Madam Owusu-Banahene said and appealed to the insurance companies to offer assistance to the affected farmers.<\/p>\n

Professor Justice Ofori, the Commissioner of Insurance, National Insurance Commission (NIC) implored the Association to work hard and contribute to the nation\u2019s post-COVID-19 economic recovery process.<\/p>\n

He said the country had not been spared from the global economic shocks and entreated the insurance companies to also endeavour to protect the interest of policy holders.<\/p>\n
