He indicated that it will be important to invest in the sector to improve on productivity and this will be done by “establishing District Agric Mechanization Centres across the country, we will also facilitate the setting up of area-appropriate factories to add value and reduce post-harvest losses arising from a glut in production”.

Making this position known in a post shared via social media, the Vice President said “I continued my campaign tour of the Volta Region in the Ketu North, Ketu South, Akatsi South and Central Tongu Constituencies on Wednesday.

As indicated in my Manifesto, a major focus of a Bawumia Presidency will be agriculture, justified by data which indicates about 60% of Ghanaians are engaged in that vital endeavour.
