We’ve been left out of 2nd Phase of PFJ – Peasant Farmers

The National Peasant Farmers Association says 80 percent of its members have been left out of the second Phase of the Planting for Food and Jobs (FPJ).

According to the Association, farm input and other logistics are yet to reach members. 

The National President of the Association, Wepia Awal Addo requested the Agric Minister, Bryan Acheampong to come to their aid. 

“As of June, we observed that 80% of the farmers have not been registered and their farms have not been mapped, which is a source of worry to us, because the rainy season has started. If you go to many places, a lot of people have started planting, and they need the inputs to be able to grow food.

“So, this is a source of worry to us as an association because our members are calling on us every day for the farm inputs,” the National President of the Peasant Farmers Association said.
