Govt urged to maintain subsidy on agriculture inputs
Nana Banyin Acquah, the Tarkwa Municipal Director of Agriculture, has appealed to the Government to maintain the subsidies on agriculture inputs to increase farmers’ interest in the Planting for Food and Jobs, particularly among the youth.
Aside wrong land use and ‘galamsey’ activities in the Municipality, the few youths in agriculture were relinquishing the task to farm due to inadequate finances, he said.
