Ghana: Delegation from Okeyehene's Palace harvests first greenhouse vegetables
This week, the Chief of Staff from the Office of the Okyehene led a delegation to visit the Youth in Greenhouse Enterprise Project (YuGEP) production site at Kyebi to assist 20 beneficiaries to undertake their first harvest of 600kg of cucumbers, bell peppers and tomatoes produced from five (5) greenhouses out of the ten (10) already installed at Asikam, near Kyebi.
The YuGEP project is funded by the Ghana EXIM Bank and implemented by Agri-Impact Consult as part of both the Government of Ghana ‘Planting for Food and Job’ and 1D1F programs. The YuGEP project consists of 100 topvent greenhouses of 6,440 sqm each installed in six regions of Ghana including Greater Accra, Ashanti, Eastern, Central, Volta and Western. Preparatory work for a second phase of another 100 greenhouses has commenced and installation across different part of the country would commence in January 2021.
