Tomatoes farmers at Pigbengben in the Wa West District have called on government to consider establishing a tomato processing factory in Upper West under the One-District-One-Factory scheme to provide ready market for producers.
A processing factory for local farmers would help add value to tomato produce and attract a ready market for growers who would then be able to pay back cost of inputs supplied to them during the cultivation period.
A tomato is a nutrient-dense superfood that offers benefit to a range of bodily systems. Its nutritional content supports healthful skin, weight loss, and heart health.
