Ghana plans to turn around agric sector with $94m
The President who bemoaned the continuous decline of the agricultural sector also maintained that the development should increase food supplies and provide jobs.
“An amount of 125 million Canadian dollars has been secured from Canada, a friend of our nation, to support the initiative. This will be anchored on the pillars that will transform agriculture: the provision of improved seeds, the supply of fertilizers and the use of e-agriculture,” Nana Akufo Addo said.
“Farmers are left on their own it is not surprising that food prices are high and we have to import almost everything we eat, including vegetables from our neighbors, and yet agriculture provides the best opportunity to use modern methods to change the lives of many within the shortest possible time.”
