Warren Bam grows organic grapes and blueberries at Lushof, in South Africa. As a boy, Warren lived nearby this big farm, where his father worked as a truck driver. Warren dreamt about being a farmer himself, but in the days of apartheid it was unthinkable that a coloured boy would ever manage a farm. Nevertheless, many year later, Warren Bam came to be in charge of the very farm where his father worked. He is a really inspired farmer with amazing knowledge and enornmous feeling for soil and ecology.

As urban populations continue to rise, innovators are looking beyond traditional farming as a way to feed everyone while having less impact on our land and water resources. Vertical farming is one solution that's been implemented around the world. Vertical farms produce crops in stacked layers, often in controlled environments such as those built by AeroFarms in Newark, New Jersey. AeroFarms grows a variety of leafy salad greens using a process called "aeroponics," which relies on air and mist. AeroFarms' crops are grown entirely indoors using a reusable cloth medium made from recycled plastics. In the absence of sun exposure, the company uses LED lights that expose plants to only certain types of spectrum. AeroFarms claims it uses 95% less water than a traditional farm thanks to its specially designed root misting system. And it is now building out a new 70,000 square foot facility in a former steel mill. Once completed, it's expected to grow 2 million pounds of greens per year, making it the largest indoor vertical farm in the world.

This is the VOA Special English Agriculture Report, from http://voaspecialenglish.com | http://facebook.com/voalearningenglish
Foreign investment in African land is growing. Countries like China, Saudi Arabia and South Korea are leasing or buying millions of hectares to grow food for their people. Research shows that many large land deals lack protections for small farmers. Contracts may guarantee leases for up to ninety-nine years, leaving local people without land for generations. Better practices balance exports with local food needs and give farmers ways to enforce promises by investors. They also make clear what kinds of jobs and how many jobs will be created. Smallholders can gain influence if they form cooperatives or unions or have the support of nongovernmental organizations. There are different business models for cooperation between investors and local farmers. Lorenzo Cotula is a senior researcher at the International Institute for Environment and Development in London. One popular method, says Mr. Cotula, is contract farming: "Contract farming has been around for a very long time and which essentially involves a company providing credit, inputs like seeds and fertilizers and training and all that, and then buying produce from the farmers at a fixed price when harvest time comes."Companies usually deduct the cost of the inputs from the final purchase price. He says contract farming represents up to sixty percent of tea and sugar farming in Kenya and one hundred percent of cotton farming in Mozambique. Contract farming may give farmers more access to markets for high-value crops. But Mr. Cotula found that contracts often go to wealthier farmers. Poorer farmers often work as labor on the contracted farms. The price that companies pay to farmers may be low, and companies might not honor purchase agreements when market conditions change. Also, growers may go into debt when the company deducts payments for inputs from the final purchase price. Another business model is a joint venture. Lorenzo Cotula says an equity stake, or share of ownership, in a business can give communities a voice in decision-making. It can also provide income in the form of dividend payments. But a practice called "transfer pricing" can make those dividends disappear. Prices are inflated or deflated in deals with companies linked to the partner in the joint-venture. This practice reduces profits for the joint-venture company and dividends for smallholder partners. As a solution, contracts may require fair market prices for sales to partners.

Organic farming
Organic farming is a form of agriculture that relies on techniques such as crop rotation, green manure, compost, and biological pest control. Depending on whose definition is used, organic farming uses fertilizers and pesticides (which include herbicides, insecticides and fungicides) if they are considered natural (such as bone meal from animals or pyrethrin from flowers), but it excludes or strictly limits the use of various methods (including synthetic petrochemical fertilizers and pesticides; plant growth regulators such as hormones; antibiotic use in livestock; genetically modified organisms; human sewage sludge; and nanomaterials) in pursuit of goals including sustainability, openness, independence, health, and safety.
Organic agricultural methods are internationally regulated and legally enforced by many nations, based in large part on the standards set by the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements (IFOAM), an international umbrella organization for organic farming organizations established in 1972. The USDA definition as of April 1995 is:

Africa
Africa is the world's second-largest and second-most-populous continent. At about 30.2 million km2 (11.7 million sq mi) including adjacent islands, it covers six percent of Earth's total surface area and 20.4 percent of its total land area. With 1.1 billion people as of 2013, it accounts for about 15% of the world's human population. The continent is surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, both the Suez Canal and the Red Sea along the Sinai Peninsula to the northeast, the Indian Ocean to the southeast, and the Atlantic Ocean to the west. The continent includes Madagascar and various archipelagos. It contains 54 fully recognized sovereign states (countries), nine territories and two de facto independent states with limited or no recognition.
Africa's population is the youngest amongst all the continents; the median age in 2012 was 19.7, when the worldwide median age was 30.4.Algeria is Africa's largest country by area, and Nigeria by population. Africa, particularly central Eastern Africa, is widely accepted as the place of origin of humans and the Hominidae clade (great apes), as evidenced by the discovery of the earliest hominids and their ancestors, as well as later ones that have been dated to around seven million years ago, including Sahelanthropus tchadensis, Australopithecus africanus, A. afarensis, Homo erectus, H. habilis and H. ergaster – with the earliest Homo sapiens (modern human) found in Ethiopia being dated to circa 200,000 years ago. Africa straddles the equator and encompasses numerous climate areas; it is the only continent to stretch from the northern temperate to southern temperate zones.

South Africa
South Africa, officially the Republic of South Africa, is the southernmost sovereign state in Africa. It is bounded on the south by 2,798 kilometers of coastline of southern Africa stretching along the South Atlantic and Indian Oceans, on the north by the neighbouring countries of Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe, and on the east by Mozambique and Swaziland, and surrounding the kingdom of Lesotho. South Africa is the 25th-largest country in the world by land area, and with close to 53 million people, is the world's 24th-most populous nation. It is the southernmost country on the mainland of the Old World or the Eastern Hemisphere.
South Africa is a multiethnic society encompassing a wide variety of cultures, languages, and religions. Its pluralistic makeup is reflected in the constitution's recognition of 11 official languages, which is among the highest number of any country in the world. Two of these languages are of European origin: Afrikaans developed from Dutch and serves as the first language of most white and coloured South Africans; English reflects the legacy of British colonialism, and is commonly used in public and commercial life, though it is fourth-ranked as a spoken first language.

Pankaj
Pankaj is a Hindu given name, common in Nepal and India. It has its roots in the Sanskrit word paṅkaja which refers to the lotus flower. The word is a compound of paṅka 'mud' and the suffix -ja 'born from, growing in'. The associated symbolism is of the lotus that is born in mud and blossoms after arising from mud. The lotus flower is also the national flower of India and is considered to be a symbol of Buddhist teaching (cf. Nalanda).

Largest Organic Herb Grower in U.S. Transforms with FluenceLargest Organic Herb Grower in U.S. Transforms with Fluence
Shenandoah Growers is the largest retail producer of organic herbs in the United States. They recently transformed their cultivation facility with a hybrid vertical farm and greenhouse model powered by Fluence horticulture lighting solutions. Learn more: https://fluence.science/shenandoah-growers Shenandoah said the transformation has boosted crop yields and quality while reducing land, water and fertilizer resources: "Fluence became our partners in growth in discussing what would be the ideal light for supplemental greenhouse growing. One of the reasons we went to LEDs versus less expensive high pressure sodium was we're looking at the future. We know there's less maintenance costs involved in the long term, we also know that these particular lights we can use the same amount of electricity, but we're getting a much high micromole output." Shenandoah Growers is utilizing 612 VYPR lights in their new production facility, 120 VYPR lights in their new propagation area, and 56 VYPR lights in their microgreen production. Those VYPR lights are putting out an average of 160 micromoles, compared to their high pressure sodium lights, which have approximately 75 micromoles. Shenandoah also saw improvement due to the light spectrum of the new VYPR lights. The quality enhanced, the flavonoid content enhanced, the plants were more compact, didn't stretch, and they got a much fresher, more flavorful, and higher-antioxidant content product out to their customers. See more about VYPR grow lights: https://fluence.science/technology/vypr/ Our decision was to utilize the same amount of energy, but increase our intensity of light and our spectrum of light to enhance our production. So we gain higher productivity, which means faster turnovers, which means less energy use per pot. This cuts down on our carbon footprint, it's good for the environment, and good economically.

Vertical farming is one solution that's been implemented around the world. Vertical farms produce crops in stacked layers, often in controlled environments such as those built by AeroFarms in Newark, New Jersey. AeroFarms grows a variety of leafy salad greens using a process called "aeroponics," which relies on air and mist. AeroFarms' crops are grown entirely indoors using a reusable cloth medium made from recycled plastics. In the absence of sun exposure, the company uses LED lights that expose plants to only certain types of spectrum. AeroFarms claims it uses 95% less water than a traditional farm thanks to its specially designed root misting system. And it is now building out a new 70,000 square foot facility in a former steel mill. Once completed, it's expected to grow 2 million pounds of greens per year, making it the largest indoor vertical farm in the world.

This is the VOA Special English Agriculture Report, from http://voaspecialenglish.com | http://facebook.com/voalearningenglish
Foreign investment in African land is growing. Countries like China, Saudi Arabia and South Korea are leasing or buying millions of hectares to grow food for their people. Research shows that many large land deals lack protections for small farmers. Contracts may guarantee leases for up to ninety-nine years, leaving local people without land for generations. Better practices balance exports with local food needs and give farmers ways to enforce promises by investors. They also make clear what kinds of jobs and how many jobs will be created. Smallholders can gain influence if they form cooperatives or unions or have the support of nongovernmental organizations. There are different business models for cooperation between investors and local farmers. Lorenzo Cotula is a senior researcher at the International Institute for Environment and Development in London. One popular method, says Mr. Cotula, is contract farming: "Contract farming has been around for a very long time and which essentially involves a company providing credit, inputs like seeds and fertilizers and training and all that, and then buying produce from the farmers at a fixed price when harvest time comes."Companies usually deduct the cost of the inputs from the final purchase price. He says contract farming represents up to sixty percent of tea and sugar farming in Kenya and one hundred percent of cotton farming in Mozambique. Contract farming may give farmers more access to markets for high-value crops. But Mr. Cotula found that contracts often go to wealthier farmers. Poorer farmers often work as labor on the contracted farms. The price that companies pay to farmers may be low, and companies might not honor purchase agreements when market conditions change. Also, growers may go into debt when the company deducts payments for inputs from the final purchase price. Another business model is a joint venture. Lorenzo Cotula says an equity stake, or share of ownership, in a business can give communities a voice in decision-making. It can also provide income in the form of dividend payments. But a practice called "transfer pricing" can make those dividends disappear. Prices are inflated or deflated in deals with companies linked to the partner in the joint-venture. This practice reduces profits for the joint-venture company and dividends for smallholder partners. As a solution, contracts may require fair market prices for sales to partners.

He says contract farming represents up to sixty percent of tea and sugar farming in Kenya and one hundred percent of cotton farming in Mozambique. Contract farming may give farmers more access to markets for high-value crops. But Mr. Cotula found that contracts often go to wealthier farmers. Poorer farmers often work as labor on the contracted farms. The price that companies pay to farmers may be low, and companies might not honor purchase agreements when market conditions change. Also, growers may go into debt when the company deducts payments for inputs from the final purchase price. Another business model is a joint venture. Lorenzo Cotula says an equity stake, or share of ownership, in a business can give communities a voice in decision-making. It can also provide income in the form of dividend payments. But a practice called "transfer pricing" can make those dividends disappear. Prices are inflated or deflated in deals with companies linked to the partner in the joint-venture. This practice reduces profits for the joint-venture company and dividends for smallholder partners. As a solution, contracts may require fair market prices for sales to partners.

Shenandoah Growers is the largest retail producer of organic herbs in the United States. They recently transformed their cultivation facility with a hybrid vertical farm and greenhouse model powered by Fluence horticulture lighting solutions. Learn more: https://fluence.science/shenandoah-growers
Shenandoah said the transformation has boosted crop yields and quality while reducing land, water and fertilizer resources: "Fluence became our partners in growth in discussing what would be the ideal light for supplemental greenhouse growing. One of the reasons we went to LEDs versus less expensive high pressure sodium was we're looking at the future. We know there's less maintenance costs involved in the long term, we also know that these particular lights we can use the same amount of electricity, but we're getting a much high micromole output."
Shenandoah Growers is utilizing 612 VYPR lights in their new production facility, 120 VYPR lights in their new propagation area, and 56 VYPR lights in their microgreen production. Those VYPR lights are putting out an average of 160 micromoles, compared to their high pressure sodium lights, which have approximately 75 micromoles. Shenandoah also saw improvement due to the light spectrum of the new VYPR lights. The quality enhanced, the flavonoid content enhanced, the plants were more compact, didn't stretch, and they got a much fresher, more flavorful, and higher-antioxidant content product out to their customers. See more about VYPR grow lights: https://fluence.science/technology/vypr/
Our decision was to utilize the same amount of energy, but increase our intensity of light and our spectrum of light to enhance our production. So we gain higher productivity, which means faster turnovers, which means less energy use per pot. This cuts down on our carbon footprint, it's good for the environment, and good economically.

In the absence of sun exposure, the company uses LED lights that expose plants to only certain types of spectrum. AeroFarms claims it uses 95% less water than a traditional farm thanks to its specially designed root misting system. And it is now building out a new 70,000 square foot facility in a former steel mill. Once completed, it's expected to grow 2 million pounds of greens per year, making it the largest indoor vertical farm in the world.

This is the VOA Special English Agriculture Report, from http://voaspecialenglish.com | http://facebook.com/voalearningenglish
Foreign investment in African land is growing. Countries like China, Saudi Arabia and South Korea are leasing or buying millions of hectares to grow food for their people. Research shows that many large land deals lack protections for small farmers. Contracts may guarantee leases for up to ninety-nine years, leaving local people without land for generations. Better practices balance exports with local food needs and give farmers ways to enforce promises by investors. They also make clear what kinds of jobs and how many jobs will be created. Smallholders can gain influence if they form cooperatives or unions or have the support of nongovernmental organizations. There are different business models for cooperation between investors and local farmers. Lorenzo Cotula is a senior researcher at the International Institute for Environment and Development in London. One popular method, says Mr. Cotula, is contract farming: "Contract farming has been around for a very long time and which essentially involves a company providing credit, inputs like seeds and fertilizers and training and all that, and then buying produce from the farmers at a fixed price when harvest time comes."Companies usually deduct the cost of the inputs from the final purchase price. He says contract farming represents up to sixty percent of tea and sugar farming in Kenya and one hundred percent of cotton farming in Mozambique. Contract farming may give farmers more access to markets for high-value crops. But Mr. Cotula found that contracts often go to wealthier farmers. Poorer farmers often work as labor on the contracted farms. The price that companies pay to farmers may be low, and companies might not honor purchase agreements when market conditions change. Also, growers may go into debt when the company deducts payments for inputs from the final purchase price. Another business model is a joint venture. Lorenzo Cotula says an equity stake, or share of ownership, in a business can give communities a voice in decision-making. It can also provide income in the form of dividend payments. But a practice called "transfer pricing" can make those dividends disappear. Prices are inflated or deflated in deals with companies linked to the partner in the joint-venture. This practice reduces profits for the joint-venture company and dividends for smallholder partners. As a solution, contracts may require fair market prices for sales to partners. For VOA Special English, I'm Alex Villarreal. (Adapted from a radio program broadcast 10Jan2012)

Shenandoah Growers is the largest retail producer of organic herbs in the United States. They recently transformed their cultivation facility with a hybrid vertical farm and greenhouse model powered by Fluence horticulture lighting solutions. Learn more: https://fluence.science/shenandoah-growers
Shenandoah said the transformation has boosted crop yields and quality while reducing land, water and fertilizer resources: "Fluence became our partners in growth in discussing what would be the ideal light for supplemental greenhouse growing. One of the reasons we went to LEDs versus less expensive high pressure sodium was we're looking at the future. We know there's less maintenance costs involved in the long term, we also know that these particular lights we can use the same amount of electricity, but we're getting a much high micromole output."
Shenandoah Growers is utilizing 612 VYPR lights in their new production facility, 120 VYPR lights in their new propagation area, and 56 VYPR lights in their microgreen production. Those VYPR lights are putting out an average of 160 micromoles, compared to their high pressure sodium lights, which have approximately 75 micromoles. Shenandoah also saw improvement due to the light spectrum of the new VYPR lights. The quality enhanced, the flavonoid content enhanced, the plants were more compact, didn't stretch, and they got a much fresher, more flavorful, and higher-antioxidant content product out to their customers. See more about VYPR grow lights: https://fluence.science/technology/vypr/
Our decision was to utilize the same amount of energy, but increase our intensity of light and our spectrum of light to enhance our production. So we gain higher productivity, which means faster turnovers, which means less energy use per pot. This cuts down on our carbon footprint, it's good for the environment, and good economically.

Living Land - Episode 24: Meet a group of enterprising farmers
In this episode we meet a group of enterprising farmers that have made remarkable progress in a short period – so much so that their farm is used as a benchmark to teach other start-up Nguni cattle farmers. The Khuduthathe & Kgolagano Cooperative lease land from the Royal Bafokeng tribe. In 2012 they successfully applied to participate in a national Nguni cattle development project, and became the beneficiaries of 58 cows and one bull. The herd has grown significantly since then, and this project has proven to be hugely successful because of the willingness of the members to work hard, to make sacrifices, and to accept advice from extension officers. We also visit a fascinating Peppadew project in Limpopo Province. This uniquely South African plant produces fruit that are in high demand...

In recent years the world has become increasingly aware of health and environmental issues...Around the world consumers have concerns about the quality and safety of the food they eat. Pesticides, fertilizers and veterinary drugs all impact on the food we eat each day, in response organic farming has blossomed. Organic farming refers to farming practice done without the use of synthetic chemicals like pesticides, fungicides, insecticides or any genetically modified seeds, organic farmers use a variety of techniques that sustain ecosystems and reduce pollution while they improve the production and quality of nutrition from the produce we consume. This includes crop rotation, natural composting, environmentally friendly pest control and homeopathy in order to produce foods that are free of all artificial additives.
Traditional African agricultural methods have always been organic and have been a big influence in today's modern organic agriculture. Artificial fertilizers and chemicals came to prominence in the late 20th century while traditional African agricultural production did not use biocides and was entirely dependent on the natural resource base, just one more example of how Africa is the cradle of mankind...
Formal, certified organic farming in South Africa is still small, but because of the success of this methodology for emerging farmers it is now anticipated that small-holder and subsistence farmers may feed as much as two-thirds of the population organic food is not a trend or only for the wealthy, it is the future of food production on our continent. Join James Mmako age 24 who is keen to work in the agricultural sector as an organic farmer.

As part of effort to upscale technologies promoted by IFDC's Feed the Future Ghana Agricultural Technology Transfer project and tell the success story of the project, Modern Africa Production (MAP) worked with the project technical team to produce and telecast segments of the Kuapa Television on-farm reality show. “Kuapa” (meaning “good farming” in the Akan language) TV programs reach over one million smallholder farmer viewers of Ghana’s most-watched GTV network. To begin with, two episodes on seed value chain and the UDP under maize cultivation have been produced. The seed value chain subject for instance will feature most of the actors (seed processors, producers and growers) and institutions (SARI and GSIU) the project’s activities has impacted.

Here we go again!
We board a flight from Amsterdam and in 9 hours we are in the Caribbean. After a layover of just a couple of hours on Curacao, we fly on to Jamaica. We land in Kingston around 11 am local time. The air is hot, but not too humid.
We have a 3 hours layover, so we decide to get out of the airport and go have lunch in Port Royal, half an hour away on the coast. It's a bit of a ghost-town, once a very rich merchant harbor, destroyed at the end of the seventeenth century by a powerful earthquake. It looks like it never really recovered…
We eat lunch in a small fish-restaurant, famous for its snapper. But I eat jerk chicken because I am picky with my fish, and the jerk-spices here are amazing!
Of course we drink some Red Stripe beers, and Simon and myself decide it's time to find some weed. It does not take long before we hit the jackpot: literally on the side of the local Police station, along the seaside, there are some barracks and shacks; inside a group of Rastas is busy cleaning and chopping weed and rolling it up in small balls, using rolling papers as containers.
We ask if we can buy some, and the guys are thrilled. It's cheap, less than 1 Euro per gram. But it's a bit bitter, very leafy, and we enjoy it just because it's been a while since we smoked in Amsterdam! Some of the Rastas in the back are smoking crack cocaine in a glass pipe, the smell is terribly sour. They ask if we like some, and we politely tell them we are just here for the ganja; they nod, and scream "Jah Rastafari"!
We sit and smoke a joint with them, and chat a bit about the local weed, and the cops. It's incredible that this is all happening next to the Police station.
We leave as soon as the joint is over, and we go back to the restaurant to join the rest of the crew.
It's time to get back to the airport and catch a Jamaican Airlines flight to Montego Bay, where our local contacts are waiting. The flight is really short, under half hour, and we arrive in MoBay before sunset. Bigga, Shanti, Nampo and Taleban are waiting for us and it's great to see them again; Arjan and myself spent some crazy days with these guys not long ago, during our scouting trips on the island.
These guys are a tight crew, and they are going to take care of us during the next days of this filming trip.
Nampo is a older Rasta, wise man, with lots of contacts and very respected.
Taleban, his friend, is a grower and a smuggler, a real pirate and one of the funniest guys we ever had with us during our expeditions.
Bigga is our driver/bodyguard, he's a man of the road and he knows who and what you need to know to keep us safe.
Shanti is a local singer, a reggae artist with an amazing talent and a great personality. I know him since he was 10 years old, back in 1994, when I spent a few weeks near where he lived with his father (the man supplying me with fine herb at the time). It was really special to find Shanti during our scouting trips back in July, he's now a grown up man… and I am getting old! Shanti will come along and make sure the soundtrack of our travels is inspiring and inspired.
We get the cars, two Toyota Fortuner, and we load up the mountain of gear we are carrying. Then we drive down to Negril in the sunset light, and when we arrive it's already dark. We decide to spend the first night at the Blue Cave Castle, a really cozy place on the rocky cliffs of Negril.
It's another true 1994-flashback for me, this is one of the places where I stayed when I was a 20-years-old ganja-traveler, already a Strain Hunter without knowing it…. Of course to make the flashback even more intense the same room where I slept then is available, so I take it.
It still looks the same.
We are tired from the long travel, and we decide to go for some food. Unfortunately the chef is sick, so we decide to find something not too far away. We hit a jerk-chicken stand by the side of the road and we eat like there's no tomorrow.
After a few Red Stripes and a few joints we go back to the hotel, where we smoke some good amount of high-grade weed, and some "gum", the local finger-hash.
The weed is definitely an indica-cross, it tastes sweet and strong, and they say it's from a site not too far from where we are. We make a plan for tomorrow, and we go to sleep. Jamaica is great. It's a true privilege to be here again.
Jah Bless!
And now we are back with MisterX pics, the man is a true artist..... enjoy!

Shanti is a local singer, a reggae artist with an amazing talent and a great personality. I know him since he was 10 years old, back in 1994, when I spent a few weeks near where he lived with his father (the man supplying me with fine herb at the time). It was really special to find Shanti during our scouting trips back in July, he's now a grown up man… and I am getting old! Shanti will come along and make sure the soundtrack of our travels is inspiring and inspired.
We get the cars, two Toyota Fortuner, and we load up the mountain of gear we are carrying. Then we drive down to Negril in the sunset light, and when we arrive it's already dark. We decide to spend the first night at the Blue Cave Castle, a really cozy place on the rocky cliffs of Negril.
It's another true 1994-flashback for me, this is one of the places where I stayed when I was a 20-years-old ganja-traveler, already a Strain Hunter without knowing it…. Of course to make the flashback even more intense the same room where I slept then is available, so I take it.
It still looks the same.
We are tired from the long travel, and we decide to go for some food. Unfortunately the chef is sick, so we decide to find something not too far away. We hit a jerk-chicken stand by the side of the road and we eat like there's no tomorrow.
After a few Red Stripes and a few joints we go back to the hotel, where we smoke some good amount of high-grade weed, and some "gum", the local finger-hash.
The weed is definitely an indica-cross, it tastes sweet and strong, and they say it's from a site not too far from where we are. We make a plan for tomorrow, and we go to sleep. Jamaica is great. It's a true privilege to be here again.
Jah Bless!
And now we are back with MisterX pics, the man is a true artist..... enjoy!

The Northern Rural Growth Programme is an 8 year agricultural value chain development programme which commenced in 2009 and is financed by the Government of Ghana, the International Fund for Agriculture Development (IFAD) and the African Development Bank.
The programme originally covers the Northern, Upper East, Upper West and adjourning districts of the Brong Ahafo region to the Northern Region. It subsequently took up and completed some infrastructural projects in the Brong Ahafo, Ashanti, Western, Central, Greater Accra and Volta Regions of Ghana
The overall goal of the programme is to contribute to equitable and sustainable poverty reduction and food security among rural households.
The specific objective is to increase Northern Ghana rural households’ income on a sustainable basis.
The programme implementation is done with strong gender and environmental considerations.
These objectives have been achieved through the promotion of profitable Agricultural Value Chains, development of Value Chain Governance Structures called District Value Chain Committees (DVCC’s), the Cashless Credit Model, (CCM), strengthening and formation of Farmer Based Organizations (FBO’s) and other actors whilst linking them up to markets and financial services.
The Programme has built relevant value chain infrastructure such as market infrastructure (roads, warehouses and pack houses) and irrigation facilities to encourage all year round cropping.
This documentary captures the key achievements of the Northern Rural Growth Programme and its positive impact on the lives of the rural poor in Ghana.

In this episode we meet a group of enterprising farmers that have made remarkable progress in a short period – so much so that their farm is used as a benchmark to teach other start-up Nguni cattle farmers.
The Khuduthathe & Kgolagano Cooperative lease land from the Royal Bafokeng tribe. In 2012 they successfully applied to participate in a national Nguni cattle development project, and became the beneficiaries of 58 cows and one bull.
The herd has grown significantly since then, and this project has proven to be hugely successful because of the willingness of the members to work hard, to make sacrifices, and to accept advice from extension officers. We also visit a fascinating Peppadew project in Limpopo Province.
This uniquely South African plant produces fruit that are in high demand on the international market. The cultivation of these plants is strictly controlled by the company that owns the international rights for the product.
About 80 farmers are contracted as growers and share in the phenomenal international success.
