The DCE emphasized that, a developing economy like Ghana where majority of its people are into agriculture, can only achieve optimum development if there is phenomenal investment in the agriculture sub-sector.

It is on the basis of that, that the current government led by Nana Addo DanquahAkuffo prioritized agriculture with several initiatives such as Planting for Food and Jobs to boost productivity.

The Chief Executive made this known at the launch of agricultural drone technology at Akumadan, capital of Offinso North District.

The Agricultural drone technology from agripower is to replace the manual spray machine and to ensure easy spray of farms in Ghana starting from Offinso North.

After the practical demonstration of the agricultural drone technology, the DCE described the initiative by agripower as monumental and urged farmers to embrace the initiative as it has the tendency of moving Ghana toward food sufficiency.

He thanked agripower group for choosing Offinso North District for the maiden launch in the country.
