Morocco donates 2,000 tonnes of fertiliser to boost Ghana’s agriculture

The Kingdom of Morocco has donated 2,000 metric tonnes of fertiliser to Ghana to support efforts aimed at boosting agricultural productivity and strengthening food security under the government’s flagship Feed Ghana initiative.

The donation, the second in a series, was officially presented at a brief ceremony held at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Accra.

Speaking at the event, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, said the gesture reflects the deepening bilateral relations between Ghana and Morocco, as well as their shared commitment to strengthening agricultural resilience and food security, particularly in the wake of tensions in the Middle East.

“President John Dramani Mahama is investing in agriculture, particularly with the Feed Ghana Programme, in irrigation, improved seedlings and ‘Nkoko Nkitinkiti’ and other programmes to boost agricultural production.

“This donation is coming at an opportune time where we seek to boost agricultural production and improve our capacity for food security,” he said.
