The Atebubu-Amantin Municipal Office of the Department of Agriculture has sensitized the Akokoa, Kumfia, and Abamba communities on the government's agricultural flagship 'Feed Ghana' programme.
According to the Municipal Head of the Department, Bright Atta Boateng, the initiative aims to increase food production for both domestic consumption and export.
He said the programme, which also seeks to ensure food security, will see the government investing in staples like maize, rice, sorghum, soya beans, cassava, yam, and potatoes.
Atta Boateng indicated that vegetables such as tomatoes, pepper, and onions will be cultivated, while the production of ruminants like goats, sheep, and cattle-as well as pigs and poultry-will be boosted.
