Peter Abunga, Department of Social Welfare and Community Development Talensi, has expressed his enthusiasm for grass biochar, a innovation that has the potential to revolutionize farming in the region. Apexnewsgh reports
Speaking at a dialogue meeting organized by the Millar Institute for Transdisciplinary and Development Studies (MITDS) in Bolgatanga, Mr. Abunga shared his views on the benefits of grass biochar, highlighting its potential to improve soil fertility, reduce the need for chemical fertilizers, and increase water retention in the soil.
Mr. Abunga, who comes from a farming background, emphasized the significance of this innovation for farmers in the region. He noted that the use of chemical fertilizers has become increasingly expensive, making it difficult for farmers to afford. Grass biochar, on the other hand, is a cost-effective and sustainable solution that can help enrich soil fertility, reduce soil erosion, and increase crop yields.
The Department and Community Development Talensi official expressed his gratitude to the Millar Institute for introducing this innovation and urged the government to intervene and support the implementation of grass biochar in farming practices. He emphasized that government backing is crucial for the success of this policy, particularly in the context of the Planting for Food and Jobs initiative.
Mr. Abunga’s endorsement of grass biochar is a testament to its potential to transform farming in Talensi and beyond. As a community leader, his support is essential in promoting this innovation among farmers and encouraging its adoption.
“With government support, grass biochar can become a game-changer for farmers in the region, improving their livelihoods and contributing to food security”. He stressed
