Bachelor Thesis from the year 2021 in the subject Agrarian Studies, grade: 2.0, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, language: English, abstract: There are many warehouses across the world, including company stores for raw materials and components, finished goods stores, and so on. Warehousing connects the manufacturer and the consumer, and it's critical for providing the needed level of customer service while also keeping costs down. Warehousing has evolved into one of the most essential aspects of a company's logistics system. Maize producers all around the world are suffering because of modern maize storage. Because of the numerous advantages, farmers are in a better position to accept the use of modern warehouses in maize storage. Although the municipality of Ejura-Sekyedumase has some modern storage facilities, they are hardly used. The elements that impact the use of storage facilities in Ejura ¿ Sekyedumase Municipal were investigated in this study. The study also looked at the extent of usage of these modern warehousing facilities, farmers' perceptions of the government's "One District One Warehouse" (1D1W) policy, and what farmers anticipate from newly built warehouses under the 1D1W policy to help them make decisions about whether to utilize them. The study used a survey research design with questionnaires to collect data. Maize growers in Ejura-Sekyedumase served as the study's unit. Quantitative and qualitative approaches were used to analyze the data. From the analysis, it was found that the production of maize in the Ejura-Sekyedumase Municipality is undertaken by the less educated farmers and the youths (people with ages less than 40). Also, most of the farmers in the municipality do not have access to financial support. With regards to the storage of maize in a warehouse, majority of maize farmers in the Municipal do not store their products in a warehouse because they have rooms and sheds for the storage of their produce. FBO participation, farmer category, the quantity of produced harvested, warehouse awareness and access to financial support were the important factors that influence farmers¿ decision to use a warehouse. Also, the major reason why farmers are not using warehousing facilities in the municipal is a result of poor management services by the warehouse owners and managers. Based on the findings, the study recommends that, the local government authority should raise funds to pay off the private partner, own the facility, and decide on the management and pricing policies. These will help in the sustainability of the warehouses. [...]
