The Agricultural Development Bank (ADB) has presented a cheque of Five Hundred and Seventy Thousand Ghana Cedis (GHC570, 000.00) to Mr. Solomon Kwadwo Kusi, the 2020 National Best Farmer.

The amount was the ultimate prize to the Overall Winner of the 2020 National Farmers Celebration Award held in Techiman in the Bono East Region.

At a ceremony in Accra, the ADB Managing Director, Dr. John Kofi Mensa initially handed over the GHC570,000 cheque to the Minister for Food and Agriculture, Honorable Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto who in turn presented it to Mr. Solomon Kusi, the 2020 National Best Farmer.

Dr. Kofi Mensah indicated that the Bank received an agri-business proposal from Mr. Kusi through the Ministry of Food and Agriculture in which he outlined how he was going to use the funds.

“Our Agribusiness Division perused the document and we are satisfied with all the things outlined by Mr. Kusi,”. He said.

According to the ADB Managing Director, the document indicated that part of the money will be used to acquire and install cocoa drying house, expand most of his current operations, employee more people, dig three boreholes, expand his mechanization centre and purchase more farming materials , seeds and feed.

“Our expectation is that by upgrading and expanding the mechanization center, more farmers in his catchment area would benefit from mechanization services,” he added.
