Agriculture is not just a sector-it is the heartbeat of Ghana's economy, a living testament to the grit and determination of a people who rise with the sun to feed a nation.
From the fields of cassava and cocoa to the shores of fishing communities, agriculture employs nearly half of the population, feeds millions, and contributes roughly 20% to the nation's GDP.
Yet, despite its centrality to Ghana's economic and cultural identity, the full potential of agriculture remains untapped, locked behind a government that prioritizes kickbacks, and enjoys self-gratification and raw material exports over value addition.
The question is no longer why we fall short of producing the food we eat but how long will we tolerate lazy leaders who refuse to unlock the transformative power of agriculture.
