What Drives Us?
Within the developing agenda of Ghana,
agriculture is identified as one of the economic pillars. The nexus/connection between agriculture development and Ghana’s ability to achieve its food and nutrition security goals are inextricably linked
What we believe
We believe modern agriculture
is more than just tilling the land or rearing of animals. The sector today offers career opportunities in research, environment, financial management, engineering and other technical areas for the youth to explore
