National Farmers’ Day Celebrations Begin with Colourful Procession in Accra.
The 40th National Farmers' Day celebrations in Ghana kicked off today in Accra with a lively float procession from Kwame Nkrumah Circle to exhibition grounds at the Ministries. This weeklong event, marking its milestone anniversary, will feature exhibitions, forums, and cultural displays, celebrating farmers from all 16 regions. The festivities will culminate on November 8, when President Akufo-Addo will honor top farmers, including the National Best Farmer, during an awards ceremony. Despite fewer corporate contributions this year, key sponsors such as ADB and Stanbic Bank remain dedicated to supporting the event. The theme, "Building climate-resilient agriculture for sustainable food security," underscores the nation’s commitment to tackling climate challenges in agriculture.
