Most smallholder vegetable farmers in three of the northern regions have agreed to adopt the solar-powered irrigation system in their quest to ensure all-year-round vegetable production in their areas.
The farmers grow their crops in the Upper West, Savannah and North-East regions.
They agreed to adopt the solar-powered system of irrigation at a workshop organised by the Market Oriented Agriculture Programme in North-West Ghana (MOAP- NW), for vegetable farmers, meant to share ideas on how best to promote good agronomic practices in the area.
