Advancing the Growth of Agriculture Productivity in Ghana from the Perspective of the Development of Female Education
Original language description
Agriculture is an important sector of the development of every nation. It plays a major role in the employment and trade balance of developing countries. The sector provides the basic food for the survival of the people in any country. In Ghana, agriculture employs a larger part of the labour force but contributes less to the total gross domestic product. Many of the farmers are poor and less educated. A lot of tangible reasons have been given for the low performance of agriculture in developing countries. The paper examines the advances made in agriculture in Ghana and how to improve the situation from the perspective of the education of women, which has not been given any special attention in the development of agriculture in developing countries. Women form a greater percentage of the Ghanaian population, but they are less educated than their male counterparts. The increase in the production of food crops increases gross domestic product. The problem is that most of the food crop growers are either illiterate women or women who have a very low educational background. Educating them means providing them with knowledge and skills that will improve their productive capacity to reduce poverty.
