We all know the conspiracy to murder and kill Mills was engineered by the pepeni/ayigbe wicked anti Akan agenda and one of the triggers was the reestablishment of diplomatic relations with our brothers the Isrealis . Now they wish us to make enemies with our natural allies in the west so we estranged with our diaspora . I wonder why this NDC mafia/muslim group did not organize this demo during the Arab spring when they were killing our Akans in the tens of thousands all over . Why don't we see demos in front of the Libyan , Syrian , Morocco , Tunisia , Egypt and Saudi embassies ? why do they want to turn this country into another anti American / west fortress of stupidity. Did it ever cross their retarded minds that over half a million Akans live in Germany and over a million in the USA due the exodus caused by the wickedness and discrimination of the jj rawlings fake revolution? I will not mention the rest of the countries that accepted our people and gave them a chance to live comfortably yet they want to make propaganda war against these nations. Let them bus these fools to the embassy and i hope they have said their last goodbyes to their mothers as we will ambush them with our cutlasses and make sure they never go back home . we shall instruct our criminals and armed robbers to put their nefarious activities to good use and start targeting only ndc homes and their sympathizers . We shall make Ghana very unsafe for them as they have free accommodation , free food , free cars , free house boys and girls so can misbehave whenever they wake up. Americans despite some of their mischief with Monsanto and other foolishness are still our brothers and we will make sure all people who mean us well continue to feel welcome . Did it even cross the minds of these idiotic ndc that the person who wrote that tweet had every right since they were most likely half Akan and are disgusted by the careless irresponsible way the ndc are ruling ?

The strength of every society depends largely on the quality of its leadership. It is unfortunate to say that everything rises & falls on leadership. How can a country well endowed with natural resources & yet remain so poor after 50yrs? The nation's underdevelopment is highly due to weak policies, mismanagement & alarming corrupt practices. There's also the lack of transparency, lack of accountability & lack of respect for the rule of law on part of political leaders. At the end of the day, the very poor have to take the burden of paying higher taxes on everything due to our leader's incompetences, poor decisions & downright corruption.

So Angie my dear Sister, are people limited in their ability to notice this simple reason you have mentioned here? Why do people overlook incompetence and corruption and continue to impose bad leaders on us? The first sign of a corrupt politician is one who dishes out gifts at election time to the people they have made poor. So it is difficult to understand why people will throw such an important thing as a vote which can transform their lives away for a laptop, and continue to wallow in poverty.

I get astonished whenever i come online and read about the system in Ghana, in someway i think this is a blessing in disguise and that these periods of hardship could help save our future generation, in the sense that the citizens will value and appreciate how a single vote counts, and by so doing will begin to vote on a sensical and analytical basis rather than biased, myopic and nepotic stances, this is not what we in the diaspora want to read about our country, in fact this causes a sense of hesitation for investment, Ghanaians must take a cue from this and inculcate the habit of longevity rather than short-lived luxury. thank God am not in that country and i feel bad for all those suffering, this is horrible, come 2016, Ghanaians should be wiser and vote based on COMPETENCY, no tribalism, no nepotism, those are all vague ambitions and always end up like the current situation, my best wishes to all Ghanaians, will keep you in my prayers...

How many of these food products are locally produced? you mentioned Vietnam fragrance rice, US rice, Brazil chicken, US chicken, imported beans from Niger. These are all imports. So to discourage importation of food products that can be obtained locally in Ghana, there has to be a increase in import tariff on those goods. If 25kg of Ghana produced rice cost 650 cedis and you have the taste for Texas rice for 950 cedis, it is your choice - not the price of food going up but your taste for foreign goods. Buying locally produced foods - period and stop the propaganda.

What is the essence of food sufficiency when the food products are priced over and above the means of affordability of the masses?

Ghana has taken a 100 million loan from the world bank to encourage agriculture - the program needs to be revisited to make sure it is working as intended..
The objective of the Commercial Agriculture Project for Ghana is: increased access to land, private sector finance, input and output markets by smallholder farms from private public partnerships in commercial agriculture in Accra Plains and Savannah Accelerated Development Authority (SADA) zone. The project has four components. (1) Strengthening investment promotion infrastructure, facilitating secure access to land. This component will promote a secure investment climate that clarifies and strengthens the rights and obligations of investors, government and affected communities, and support an improved mechanism for facilitating access to land by reducing the search costs to potential investors through an expansion of a database of land suitable and available for investors and by building on nascent mechanisms for actively matching potential investors with suitable land owners. (2) Securing Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) and small-holder linkages in the Accra Plains. This component will conclude one or two transactions for PPPs in an irrigation investment in the Accra Plains. (3) Securing PPPs and small-holder linkages in the SADA Zone. This component will involve support to the identification and realization of private investments in inclusive commercial agricultural arrangements in the agricultural value chain through PPPs, complementary public investments, and technical assistance concentrated in the SADA zone. (4) Project management, monitoring and evaluation. This component finances the operations of the project implementing agencies.

WASHINGTON, March 22, 2012 - The Board of Directors of the World Bank today approved a US$100 million credit to support the Government of Ghana’s efforts to scale up the development of commercial agriculture nation-wide. The Commercial Agriculture Project seeks to facilitate access to land, strengthen Ghana’s investment promotion infrastructure for attracting agri-business investors, and promote public private partnerships and small-holder linkages in the Accra Plains the SADA Zone.
The Government of Ghana is currently implementing a nation-wide Food and Agriculture Sector Development Policy (FASDEP II - 2010 – 2015) focusing on six priority themes: Food Security and Emergency Preparedness; Increased Growth in Incomes; Increased Competitiveness and Enhanced Integration into Domestic and International Markets; Sustainable Management of Land and Environment; Science and Technology Applied in Food and Agriculture Development; Improved Institutional Coordination.
The Commercial Agricultural Project, which is designed to support the implementation of above priorities, is made up of four main components:
Component 1: Strengthening investment promotion infrastructure and facilitating secure access to land (US$11.8 million; to be complemented by USAID co-financing of US$5.9 million) - This component will promote a secure investment climate that clarifies and strengthens the rights and obligations of investors, government and affected communities, and support an improved mechanism for facilitating access to land by reducing the search costs to potential investors through an expansion of a database of land suitable and available for investors and by building on nascent mechanisms for actively matching potential investors with suitable land owners.
Component 2: Securing Public Private Partnerships (PPPS) and small-holder linkages in the Accra Plains (US$45.4 million) - This component will conclude transactions for PPPs in an irrigation investment in the Accra Plains. The project area includes the existing Kpong Irrigation Project as well as an expansion of an additional 7,000ha under a PPP arrangement, inclusive of commercial ‘anchor’ farms and associated out-growers.
Component 3: Securing PPPs and small-holder linkages in the SADA Zone (US$29.3 million; to be complemented by USAID co-financing of US$35.0 million) - This component will involve support to the identification and realization of private investments in inclusive commercial agricultural arrangements in the agricultural value chain through PPPs, complementary public investments, and technical assistance concentrated in the SADA zone.
Component 4: Project management including M&E (US$14.3 million; to be complemented by USAID co-financing US$7.2 million) - This component finances the operations of the project implementing agencies. It will also finance the various monitoring and evaluation and community engagement and communications functions.
According to Chris Jackson, Senior Economist and project Task Team Leader: “This project reflects the Bank’s continued support for Ghana’s agricultural development. By focusing on ‘socially inclusive commercial agriculture’ it will improve the enabling environment for farmers while also making sure that local communities can participate in new agriculture based opportunities. By strengthening the arrangements by which investors secure land, it will reduce investor risks and promote benefit sharing arrangements. The geographical focus promotes a balanced development between the high-potential Accra Plains and underexploited areas in northern Ghana.”
Even thought the project will support the scaling up of commercial agriculture on a national scale, it will have two main ecological areas of focus: the SADA zone and the Accra Plains. In the SADA zone it will primarily support the development of value chains in areas with a good potential for agricultural growth. In the Accra Plain the area targeted includes 11,000ha mainly for irrigated cultivation. In both intervention zones the project will promote contract farming and support the establishment of out-growers schemes for various agriculture commodities.
According to Hon Kwesi Ahwoi, Minister of Food and Agriculture, “the project directly supports the Government’s Commercial Agriculture agenda, and is a key pillar in our efforts to modernize agriculture. The Accra Plains, the SADA Zone and other ecological belts in the Western and Eastern Corridors have huge potentials which we need billions of dollars to fully harness. While the project will be housed in the Ministry of Food and Agriculture, we shall foster an active partnership between my ministry, the Lands Commission, the Ghana Investment Promotion Center, the Environmental Protection Agency and the Savannah Accelerated Development Authority to ensure smooth implementation”.
“By supporting out-grower schemes and contract farming arrangements, this project will help connect our small farmers to markets and strengthen key value chains. It will also increase the production of rice and maize to help the country to become self sufficient in these crops,” the Minister reiterates.
In addition to the US$100 million being provided by the World Bank, USAID will provide a grant of US$45 million to jointly support the implementation of this project by promoting inclusive market growth and leveraging the resources and expertise of the private sector toward our common pursuit of improving food security in the SADA region of Northern Ghana. This is a key pillar of the U.S. Government’s new Feed the Future strategy for Ghana and will seek to build from the experience of Ghana’s U.S. funded Millennium Challenge Corporation program which closed at the end of February, 2012. Feed the Future supports country-led processes for food security and agricultural development, and Paul Weisenfeld, USAID’s Assistant to the Administrator for the Bureau for Food Security, notes: “USAID is proud to support the Ghana Commercial Agriculture Program as a key component of Ghana’s strategy to increase food security and agricultural development through inclusive private-sector led growth designed to benefit Ghana’s smallholders".
Yusupha Crookes, newly appointed World Bank Country Director for Ghana notes, “I am glad we are scaling up our support for Ghana’s agricultural sector. Ghana has great potential to become a leading food producer in the West African sub-region. What we all have to do is to put serious traction behind this project to help create more jobs particularly for rural folks and women, and ultimately bring more agricultural products to the markets.”
