Ghana will commemorate the 2025 Farmers’ Day on Friday, December 5, in recognition of the vital contributions of farmers and fishers to national food security and the rural economy. The 41st edition of the celebration commenced on Monday, December 1, at the Ho Sports Stadium with the official opening of the 2025 National Agricultural Fair, which attracted thousands of participants, including farmers, agripreneurs, policymakers, investors, and exhibitors from across the country.
Organised under the theme “Feed Ghana, Eat Ghana, Secure the Future,” the week-long event serves as a platform to showcase agricultural innovation, emerging technologies, and strategic partnerships designed to strengthen Ghana’s food systems and enhance resilience within the sector.
Today’s event will see President John Dramani Mahama honouring the national best farmers across various crop categories and other key areas of agriculture. Thousands of Ghanaians are also expected to participate in national, regional, and district activities, where outstanding farmers will be honoured for their excellence in productivity, innovation, and community impact. Instituted in 1985, Farmers’ Day remains a major national platform for celebrating the contribution of farmers and fishers to Ghana’s development.
