The government has intensified efforts to revitalise the agricultural sector through the Economic Enclave Programme under the Ghana CARES initiative.
In the Greater Accra Region, the project is situated at Kasunya/Dedukope in the Shai Osudoku District, with thousands of acres of rice farms already cultivated and harvests underway.
This ambitious programme has been complemented with a range of facilities to support modern agricultural practices.
These include hostels, a training centre, irrigation systems, warehouses, modern farming equipment, and an equipment service centre.
These resources aim to empower farmers with the necessary tools and knowledge for efficient and sustainable farming.
Beyond Greater Accra, similar agricultural enclaves have been established in the Oti, Ashanti, and Northern Regions.
These sites are part of a broader strategy to promote agricultural productivity and food security across the country.
