A five‑year agreement was signed to enhance agricultural research and technology exchange.
First phase targets tomato varieties that produce more fruit for Ghanaian farms.
The partnership includes value‑addition projects for cassava, yam and other tuber crops.
It provides training in cold storage, transportation, sorting and processing to reduce post‑harvest losses.
Joint working groups will monitor progress and ensure ongoing collaboration.
The collaboration will start with tomato research, aiming to introduce high‑yielding varieties and improve production.
It also covers processing of tuber crops such as cassava and yam, and better post‑harvest storage methods.
Scientists, seeds and technical knowledge will be shared to support sustainable agriculture and improve farmers’ livelihoods.
