Ghanaian Farmers Received No Government Support in 2023.

The Peasant Farmers Association of Ghana, led by Executive Director Bismark Nortey, disclosed that in 2023, farmers across Ghana did not receive any support from the government. This revelation comes despite a budget allocation exceeding GH₵2 billion to the Ministry of Food and Agriculture.Speaking on JoyNews’ The Probe on November 10, Nortey explained that while the initial Planting for Food and Jobs (PFJ) initiative ended in 2022, the updated PFJ 2.0 took a year to implement, leaving farmers without subsidies or essential inputs throughout 2023. This lack of support compounded existing challenges, such as climate change impacts, illegal mining, and rising input costs, worsening conditions for farmers.Nortey questioned how the allocated funds were spent, given that farmers saw no direct benefits. He emphasized the need for reliable government intervention to help farmers meet challenges and ensure agricultural growth in Ghana.
