Farmer's Day Celebration - December 1st.
Yesterday, December was Farmers day celebration in Ghana. I took time to reflect hence the 1 day gap in my post.
People that know me in the work l do at Access View Africa, know of my passion for Agricultire and Agribusiness in general, so for me there is no special day, everyday is their day because we eat everyday. However, let's talk of Farmers day please 🙏🏾
This is my 15th year in Ghana and every December 1st, we celebrate our Farmers that toil our very rich fertile soil for food to feed the nation. What has changed from last 15years? What is the difference between Farmers day prior to the introduction of planting for food and Job policy in Ghana to date. Regrettably nothing!
Simply put, agriculture is the foundation for the impactful growth that we long to see in our various countries in Africa. I was happy to see that Ghana acknowledges this fact, to set aside a day to mark the celebration of this noble profession, but we should go beyond celebrating them and have a call to action to ensure we raise our subsistence level of farming to commercial agriculture that applies modern smart agri technology and scale up our farming to achieve the desired outcomes of feeding our nation and reducing our imports significantly.
We have to be intentional in getting our countries to refocus on agriculture, support our farmers for smart farming, in a way that we achieve real import substitution that will enable us stabilise our various African currencies.
We have today neglected and failed our farmers in supporting them to evolve with the modern agricultural practices and techniques that when implemented, will indeed begin to close the huge gap that currently exists when compared with developed countries.
At Access View Africa, we support and enable agribusinesses from farm, through processing. Working with our various investment partners, we push capacity building, organic input supplies, value addition /processing, export discounting and access to market.
Being intentional is the key as we talk about supporting our farmers. We want to make sure that by the next Farmer's day in 2024, we shall be counting our successes in this area. We appreciate our farmers and all those who work in the space to support and improve their work.
We look forward to a great year ahead in this regard. God bless our farmers and Africa at large🙏🏾 🙏🏾
