The Orange Growers Association (OGA) has launched its Eastern Regional chapter at Akyem Aperade in the Achiase District, intent on enhancing quality farming and to provide a profitable and readily available market for orange farmers in the country.
OGA was instituted a few years ago with the sole objective to assist farmers with technical knowledge and up to date farming techniques to ensure rich yield and direct access to off-takers who will purchase the oranges at competitive prices to prevent losses after harvest.
The President of OGA, Nana Yaw Baffour Frimpong, at the launch called on orange farmers and potential farmers with the interest of cultivating oranges to join the association in order to access all the benefits available to members.
