Miss Agriculture Ghana is an initiative of the Uniting Women for Agricultural Development (UWAD) Foundation in collaboration with the Women in Agricultural Development (WIAD) Under the Ministry of Food and Agriculture.
Agriculture is the backbone of our country, and due to the strong interest of women in most of the agric value chain, it has become important to uphold and present the attractive nature of agriculture to the youth, especially young women. It has become essential to raise a generation of women who will take Agribusiness like any other profitable venture or as an alternative venture in a bid to create more job opportunities for women. - For further enquiries call or Whatsapp Akosua on 0240042313 or Chris on 0247025748Latest Stories
