My Business

My business is farming. I grow cassava, maize, beans,and other vegetables annually and after harvest, I sell to market women who are retailers of these products. My farm is located in Sunyani in the Brong Ahafo region of Ghana, about 3km away from where I live.
I am able to make two harvests in a year and after each harvest, I dry the crops I must dry and later sell to retailers.
Out of 15 acres of the land I cultivate, four and a half acres of the land is for beans whilst another three and a half is for cultivating maize and the other acres is for the cultivation of my vegetables
and cassava.
I am able to obtain about 20 bags of each crop, after each harvest and also enough vegetables for sale. I gain a lot of money. A lot of hard work and Money do I invest in the farm from land preparation to harvesting of the crops as well as sales.
I employ men and women who help me on the farm to clear the land, cultivate and harvest the crops. I also hire tractors to plough the land. When the crops are cultivated, I apply fertilizers to help the crops do well.
