Now this system is being introduced to make way for some greedy bastards to manipulate the farmers and deprive them of their toil's reward.

Cashless payments system have been around for a long time now.The technologies and processes involved are well known and documented.Is only in Ghana we mystify everything,calling it an Innovative system.Just go ahead and implement this and stop the announcements and fanfares.Is a known technology the world over.Mediocrity in Ghana.

Unfortunately, this is the dumbness idea again by NDC government. Instead of using the banking system to help these farmers they are going to use a fucking telecommunication company. Where is their expertise in banking and finance huh? This is worse ever idea because the government doesn't have a clue the life of a cocoa farmer and Ghana Cocoa board is inept. I hope these farmers realize it and start getting rid of cocoa plants and grow other crops - at least they can sell it in the market place on their own terms. It's only in Ghana that people that have resources are getting displaced by unscrupulous NDC government. Sad, very sad indeed

An electronic payment system does not mean that cash is not needed. Farmers need to convert the e-money in cash as most shops will not accept e-money as payment. As the system is operated by telecom companies, the e-money will have to be "exchanged" for cash, or lodged in a partnering bank or microfinance institutions. As always the challenges are in the network of cash agents and in reducing the fees.
Good luck.
