Ghana must standardise agro-machinery — Experts
Agriculture engineering experts have called for the development and enforcement of clear standards for locally fabricated agricultural and food-processing machinery to improve safety, quality, durability and confidence in the country’s growing agro-machinery industry.
They said although Ghana had demonstrated strong local capacity to fabricate machines for agriculture and food processing, the absence of consistently applied standards for materials, performance, safety and hygiene could undermine the gains made by local manufacturers.
The experts said standardisation should not mean that all fabricators produced identical machines, but rather that they complied with agreed minimum requirements for quality, safety, hygiene, materials, performance and testing.
