🇬🇭 What if farmers in rural
#Ghana could enjoy the same benefits of digital payments as people in Accra or Kumasi?
This was the vision shared by Dr. Andy Osei Okrah, CEO of the Tree Crops Development Authority (TCDA), at last week’s workshop on digital payments in Ghana’s oil palm sector.
💬 “Under the Government’s Reset Agenda, we expect initiatives like this, and indeed this workshop, to catalyse real change within the oil palm industry and the wider tree crops sector, so that a farmer in Ofoase or Betwabedi can receive payments digitally, use those payments and enjoy the same benefits as any other Ghanaian in Accra or Kumasi.”
📲 Beyond cash, digital payments can open doors to savings, credit and greater financial opportunities for farmers and workers — with potential to expand across Ghana’s other priority tree crops, from cashew and coconut to rubber, mango and shea.
