Morocco donates 2,000 tonnes of fertiliser to boost Ghana's agriculture
Morocco has donated "2,000 metric tonnes of fertiliser" to Ghana to support efforts to boost agricultural productivity and strengthen food security under the government's flagship Feed Ghana initiative. The Kingdom of Morocco made the donation as part of ongoing efforts to deepen bilateral cooperation with Ghana in the agriculture sector. The consignment is the second in a series of such donations.
The donation was officially handed over at a brief ceremony held at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Accra. Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, Minister for Foreign Affairs, said the gesture underscores the growing ties between Ghana and Morocco and their shared commitment to strengthening agriculture. He noted that the support comes at a critical time as government intensifies efforts to improve food production.
Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa said that "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." Ghana and Morocco have, in recent years, deepened cooperation across several sectors, with agriculture becoming a key focus area. Morocco is known for having some of the world's largest phosphate reserves.
