Farmer sees yield nearly 5x Ghana average

  • Abu’s 6×6 plot with peppers, nearly ready for harvest.

Conservation agriculture participation continues to grow, with most farmers electing to rotate their crops and participate another season. Many of these farmers, even with challenges and struggles, saw increases in their harvest as compared to conventional or traditional methods. One farmer experienced a yield that was nearly five times the Ghana average! Another farmer, Abu Rabo, has planted a 6×6 plot of peppers and is already seeing a tremendous difference as compared to a traditional plot nearby.
