November 6, 2020, the Methodist Park at Techiman in the Bono East Region will be the centre of attraction. The country’s gallant farmers and fisher folks will gather there to be rewarded at a grand durbar to climax the 36th edition of the National Farmers’ Day celebration.
It will be another opportunity to celebrate and acknowledge the hard work of our farmers and honour them for their dedication and commitment to feed all.
The Vice-President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, is expected to open today’s regional focus, with all regions showcasing their potential; while the President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, is expected to be the guest of honour to crown the Best Farmer 2020.
The innovation to the National Farmers’ Day which began 36 years ago is the regional focus days, where regions mount exhibitions and showcase their agricultural potential, alongside displaying their rich culture and foods peculiar to each region.
Regional exhibitions
Today’s exhibition will be led by the host region, the Bono East; with the Northern, Western North, Eastern and Bono regions following, while the Upper West, Ashanti, Western, Greater Accra, Oti and the Savanna regions take their turn on Tuesday, that is Day Two.
