Ghana aims to make the production of rice from farmers sufficient for all by 2022, a Deputy Minister of Agriculture has announced.

This will result in a ban on the importation of the commodity.

Kennedy Osei Nyarko gave this hint on The Key Points on TV3 and 3FM on Saturday, November 23.

He was speaking in the wake of cries by some rice farmers in Fumbisi in the Upper East Region that their produce have not attracted buyers this year.
