@Arkhosua you get it, as opposed to the fools on Ghanaweb. I would add that the cedi appreciation is good for everyone except exporters. Government did increase the farmers share in dollars by 68% compare to last year, but it doesn't translate to 68% in cedis because of the appreciation of the cedi. $3,100 producer price in 2024 was 3100x15= 46,500 cedis, today it is 32,550 cedis.

@GH8 is a typical dishonest NPP stooge. There is a significant increase of 62.58% in dollar term as stated, from NPP $3100 to NDC $5040. Unfortunately for everybody in the cocoa value chain, the cedi has appreciated in the meantime and is trading at 10.50, not 15 to the dollar like years back. That's why in cedi terms the increase is not that much for the farmers.

@ Benji typical NDC propaganda stooge. Do we pay farmers in dollars? It's your party that promised cocoa farmers heaven and earth and also touting your great performance of improving the performance of the cedi against the dollar, so dont twist issues. The price of bag has increased by less than ghc 200 which is not substantial as you promised. And know that prices of goods and services have remained same or even increased therefore your miserable increment of less than 200 cedis a bag does not call for any celebration.

The dollar rate is right but NDC made it seem NPP was wicked. The world market price they used for the ¢3100 per bag was lower than it is today. So what the government is paying today may also be right but NDC's baseless propaganda has caused people to demand the so called ¢6000 per bag. I can actually see the reason Mahama said the true value of the dollar is ¢12 meaning government wasn't happy with the free fall of the dollar. Only time will tell

You will continue to spend money to fight smuggling fools. We will remember on the pools. Am pure NDC but this smells. Exchange rate is 10.45 but when it comes farmers you shamelessly peg it at 10.25. What is this idiocy. I am pissed because I fought for NDC. I rented two vehicles full load of people to go vote in Tepa in Ashanti. Its disgusting to cheat poor farmers this way. I have 64 acres of cocoa.
