I was recently asked whether I am personally acquainted with Hon. Edem Agbana. To my knowledge, I have not had the privilege of meeting him. That said, regardless of personal connections, I believe it is important that we collectively speak out against misconduct and poor leadership. Accountability must be upheld at all levels of public office.

🌱 From the Classroom to the Field: Shaping Ghana's Agricultural Future

Last Friday, we had the distinct pleasure of welcoming students from the University of Ghana's Crop Science Department for an immersive, behind-the-scenes experience at our facility.

From the precision of our Seed Cleaning machinery to the power of our Multi-Grain Thresher, students witnessed firsthand the technology and expertise that drive world-class seed production — bringing their academic knowledge to life in a meaningful and practical way.

We believe that investing in the next generation of agricultural leaders is one of the most impactful contributions we can make to Ghana's food security. Today's knowledge becomes tomorrow's harvest.

We look forward to continued collaboration with institutions shaping the future of agriculture in Ghana and beyond.

It is becoming increasingly difficult to identify active seed companies operating in Ghana. One must ask: is the decline in activity a reflection of dwindling donor funding, or a broader reluctance to embrace the sustained effort that this industry demands?

For the record, LCIC continues to forge ahead. The company is currently establishing a significant presence in Malawi and has recently been admitted as a member of AFSTA — the African Seed Trade Association — further cementing its commitment to advancing the seed sector across the continent.

During the AFSTA 2026 Congress held last week in Cape Town, South Africa, seed industry leaders and policymakers convened to deliberate on the future of this critical sector. Notably, Ghana's representation was limited to a single organization — Legacy Crop Improvement Centre — with no other seed companies present. This absence raises an important question: why were Ghanaian seed enterprises largely missing from such a significant continental gathering? The answer, unfortunately, points to a troubling reality — the lack of independent participation capacity, with most industry engagement remaining contingent on donor funding.
