加纳政府将在正在实施的 "加纳供给计划" 下部署 5000 名农业和兽医专业毕业生，以支持全国粮食安全和现代农业实践。

加纳副总统 Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang 教授宣布的这一举措，标志着国家通过现代推广服务重新承诺弥合研究与实践的差距。

Opoku-Agyemang 教授在霍城举行的 2025 年阿索格利丰收节（Asogli Yam Festival）上公布了这一新计划。

她在向酋长、农民和贵宾致辞时表示，"加纳供给计划" 旨在通过创新、技术和人力资源部署来改变加纳农业部门。

"今年在农业部领导下，'加纳供给计划' 正在得到切实支持，包括 2025 年对农业的重大拨款。这还包括 5000 名农业和兽医专业毕业生，他们将被部署到全国各地，包括沃尔特地区，与农民并肩工作，提供现代推广服务，分享新技术，帮助弥合研究与实践的差距。" Opoku-Agyemang 教授表示。

部署这 5000 名毕业生确保全国农民（包括沃尔特地区的农民）获得实践支持和研究驱动的解决方案，这将改变游戏规则。

Opoku-Agyemang 教授强调，该计划是更广泛农业议程的一部分，旨在解决降雨不稳定、收获后损失和市场准入有限等挑战。

她还向公众保证，政府正在通过 "蔬菜发展项目" 和 "Nkokɔ Nkititi 家禽计划" 等举措，有意识地采取措施促进蔬菜种植和家禽生产。

副总统呼吁青年将农业视为 "可行且有利可图的事业"，强调正在建立新的农业企业和信贷支持计划以鼓励青年参与。她表示政府还正在扩大培训机会，为沃尔特地区的年轻人提供农业企业和技术技能。

Opoku-Agyemang 教授指出，阿索格利丰收节是促进农业创新和奖励农民卓越表现的重要平台。她将这一节日描述为 "加纳农业韧性和目标统一的象征"。

"丰收节不仅是对丰收和感恩的庆祝，更是对我们建设配得上我们遗产的未来的神圣提醒。" 她赞扬阿索格利王国及其领导层保持了文化传统和农业自豪感。

团结、诚信与复兴

2025 年阿索格利丰收节以 "以诚信和目标团结一致，建设公正、和平与繁荣的国家" 为主题，同时纪念十四世·托比·阿菲德阁下（Togbe Afede XIV）就任阿索格利王国国王 22 周年。

活动汇集了来自加纳各地，及多哥和贝宁代表团等国的传统领袖、政府官员、外交官和公民。

Opoku-Agyemang 教授将庆祝主题与 John Dramani Mahama 总统领导下政府的更广泛发展目标联系起来，强调诚实、合作和社区努力对实现国家繁荣至关重要。"当我们植根于真理、正直和共同目标时，我们作为人民的进步最为强大。" 她说。

托比国王在讲话中感谢神灵和祖先赐予和平庆祝，并赞扬政府优先考虑农业和青年赋权。他敦促加纳人恢复诚实这一核心国家价值观。"没有比诚实更宝贵的遗产。" 他引用威廉·莎士比亚的话提醒与会者。

"可悲的是，在我们这样一个宗教国家，腐败已被常态化。我们赞美富人而不问其财富来源，却常常诋毁诚实者。我们必须改变这种说法。" 托比国王表示说。

阿索格利军事首领 Toglbe Adzie Lakle Howusu XII 强调了山药种植的经济和文化重要性，称其是阿索格利人民生计的核心。他解释说，这个节日也是反思、感恩和社区和解的时期。

他呼吁政府为霍城技术学院改善教室、车间和宿舍设施，以加强技术和职业培训。他还敦促阿索格利王国内的酋长们共同努力解决土地和酋长争端，他认为这对 "维护和平和促进可持续发展至关重要"。

2025 年丰收节展示了丰富的文化表演、传统音乐和舞蹈，体现了阿索格利对和平、团结和农业复兴的持久承诺。

随着 "加纳供给计划" 等政府干预措施的实施，该地区的农业未来似乎日益与国家粮食安全和经济转型目标保持一致。

Government to Deploy 5,000 Agriculture Graduates Nationwide

The government will deploy 5,000 graduates in agriculture and veterinary sciences under the ongoing Feed Ghana Programme to support food security and modern farming practices across the country. The initiative, announced by Vice President Prof. Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, marks a renewed national commitment to bridging research and practice through modern extension services.

Vice President Prof. Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang revealed the new initiative during the 2025 Asogli Yam Festival held in Ho. Addressing chiefs, farmers, and dignitaries, she said the Feed Ghana Programme was designed to transform Ghana’s agriculture sector through innovation, technology, and human resource deployment.

“This year under the Ministry of Agriculture, the Feed Ghana Programme is being rolled out with tangible support, including significant allocations that have been made to agriculture in 2025.

“This also includes 5,000 graduates in agriculture and veterinary science who will be deployed across the country, including the Volta Region, to work side by side with farmers providing modern extension services, sharing new techniques, and helping bridge research and practice” Vice President Prof. Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang said.

She explained that the deployment of the 5,000 graduates to ensure that farmers across the country, including those in the Volta Region, receive hands-on support and access to research-driven solutions would be a game-changer.

Prof. Opoku-Agyemang emphasized that the programme forms part of a larger agricultural agenda aimed at addressing challenges such as erratic rainfall, post-harvest losses, and limited access to markets. She further assured the public that government was taking deliberate steps to promote vegetable farming and poultry production through initiatives like the Vegetable Development Project and the Nkokɔ Nkititi poultry programme.

The Vice President called on the youth to embrace agriculture as a “viable and profitable venture,” stressing that new agribusiness and credit support schemes were being established to encourage youth participation. She said the government was also expanding training opportunities to equip young people in the Volta Region with agribusiness and technical skills.

Prof. Opoku-Agyemang noted that the Asogli Yam Festival serves as an important platform to promote agricultural innovation and reward excellence among farmers. She described the festival as “a symbol of Ghana’s agricultural resilience and unity of purpose.”

“The Yam Festival is not only a celebration of harvest and thanksgiving but a sacred reminder of our duty to build a future worthy of our heritage,” she said, praising the Asogli State and its leadership for maintaining their cultural traditions and agricultural pride.

Unity, Integrity, and Renewal

Held under the theme “Together in Honesty and Purpose, We Build a Just, Peaceful and Prosperous Nation,” the 2025 Asogli Yam Festival also marked the 22nd anniversary of Togbe Afede XIV’s enstoolment as Agbogbomefia of Asogli State.

The event brought together traditional leaders, government officials, diplomats, and citizens from across Ghana and beyond, including delegations from Togo and Benin.

Prof. Opoku-Agyemang linked the theme of the celebration to the government’s broader development goals under President John Dramani Mahama, stressing that honesty, cooperation, and community effort were essential to achieving national prosperity. “Our progress as a people is strongest when it is rooted in truth, integrity, and shared purpose,” she said.

Togbe Afede XIV, in his address, thanked the gods and ancestors for a peaceful celebration and commended the government for prioritising agriculture and youth empowerment. He urged Ghanaians to restore honesty as a core national value. “No legacy is so rich as honesty,” he reminded the gathering, quoting William Shakespeare.

“It is sad that in a country as religious as ours, corruption has become normalised. We celebrate the wealthy without questioning how they earned their riches, and we often vilify the honest. We must change this narrative.”Togbe Afede XIV said.

Toglbe Adzie Lakle Howusu XII, the Warlord of Asogli, underscored the economic and cultural importance of yam cultivation, describing it as central to the livelihoods of the Asogli people. He explained that the festival also serves as a period of reflection, thanksgiving, and community reconciliation.

He appealed to the government to support the Ho Technical Institute with improved classrooms, workshops, and hostel facilities to strengthen technical and vocational training. He further urged chiefs within the Asogli State to work together to resolve land and chieftaincy disputes, which he said were “vital to maintaining peace and promoting sustainable development.”

The 2025 Te Za celebration featured rich cultural displays, traditional music, and dance performances, reflecting Asogli’s enduring commitment to peace, unity, and agricultural renewal.

With government interventions like the Feed Ghana Programme, the region’s agricultural future appears increasingly aligned with national goals for food security and economic transformation.
