The opposition National Democratic Congress in the Volta region is urging Ghanaian farmers not to despair in the face of the challenges they currently face.

As the country marks the 2022 Farmer’s Day, the NDC in the Volta region in a statement says it recognizes the “toils, sacrifices and dedication” of Ghanaian farmers in ensuring that there is food always on the tables to feed the millions of the population on.

“We fully empathize and identify with the current precarious situation of the astronomical cost of fertilizers, high cost of poultry feed, and other such agricultural inputs under the Nana regime to feed the population,” the statement added.

But in the face of all these challenges, the party is encouraging and urging the farmers not to despair as it prepares to snatch power from the New Patriotic Party in 2024 “with John Mahama as the captain” to restore the country back on the path of economic growth.

Across the country, from the National to Regional and District levels ceremonies are being held today to celebrate the farmers.

National Farmer’s Day is a day set aside to recognize the importance farmers play in national development.
