Jasaw proposes National Agriculture Fund to drive food systems transformation

He said the proposed National Agriculture Development Fund could support investment in food production, storage, processing and other critical areas required to transform the country’s agricultural sector.

According to Dr Jasaw, a dedicated fund would provide sustainable financing for critical interventions across the agricultural value chain, strengthen food production and help address some of the structural challenges confronting the sector.

He said the development demonstrated the importance of strengthening key institutions within Ghana’s agricultural sector to support food security and build a more resilient food system.
