GhanaVeg graduates 20 vegetable trainers
The one-year in-depth training course focused on six key areas including seedling production, crop protection, spray techniques, irrigation and fertilization, production planning and adult learning.
Mr Ron Strikker, the Netherlands Ambassador to Ghana, presenting certificates to the trainees at the graduation ceremony, during the 16th GhanaVeg Business Platform Meeting in Accra, highlighted the role of the private sector in achieving growth.
Mr Herman de Putter, the Senior Agronomy Trainer, Wageningen University and Research, said “through following the steps of the GhanaVeg Course farmers can easily double their vegetable production, while using the same amount of land.”
