Ghana joins the international community to mark this year’s World Food Day.
This year’s event would be held at the forecourt of the State House in Accra. Drama series, television and radio talk shows and a float would be organised as part of the celebration, which would be climaxed with a grand durbar.
In the Western North Region, government says it is rolling out a number of interventions in agriculture to enhance food production and boost the economy of Ghana.
These include the Planting for food and Job,Planting for Export and Rural Development and Presidential Special Rice Initiative.
In an interview with Radio Ghana the Western North Regional Minister, Kingsley Aboagye-Gyedu, said output from the initiatives are so overwhelming that the One-District-One-Warehouse project is being carried out in the region.
Aside that, government has earmarked 50 different feeder roads in ten cocoa regions including Western North this year to help reduce post–harvest losses.
