See breakdown of equipment for 50 Farmer Service Centres across Ghana

President John Dramani Mahama has outlined plans to transform agriculture through the establishment of Farmer Service Centres across 50 agricultural districts in the country.

The initiative aims to improve access to modern farming equipment and essential agricultural services, particularly for smallholder farmers who often face challenges with mechanization.

In a post shared on his X page on Monday, April 6, 2026, the Minister of State in charge of Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, provided a breakdown of the equipment to be deployed to the centres.

The equipment includes 6,600 tractors, 200 tractor trailers, 25 soy headers for combine harvesters, and 660 additional tractors.

Government to build 50 Farmer Service Centres - President Mahama

This initiative is part of a broader 2026 campaign promise to transform Ghana’s agricultural sector from subsistence farming to modern, mechanized agriculture.

The centres are designed to act as “one-stop hubs,” providing small-scale farmers with access to modern equipment, including tractors, combine harvesters, planters, and threshers.

In addition to machinery, the centres will offer high-quality inputs such as fertilizers and seedlings, soil testing laboratories, maintenance units, storage facilities, and training in modern farming techniques.

The centres will also facilitate year-round farming, reduce post-harvest losses, and help ensure better crop yields through technical support.
