It a great honour and pleasure. Let me acknowledge my boss who introduced steemit to @oppongk, steem ghana, @sarkodieeric etc.

Agriculture the very core of Africa communities. Agriculture is raring of Animals and the production of crop, primarily to feed the family and on large scale to offer to the market. In Ghana, agriculture is one of the very backbone of the country's economy.
Mr. Aseidu the best farmer in village called Asempanaye in Bono and Ahafo region.
In the farm of Mr. Aseidu, the method of farming system he practice is the mixed cropping, where different types of crop are grown on a particular piece of land. Mr. Aseidu's farm are cocoyam, plantain and maize.

Mr. Aseidu's Farm


Another session of his farm we went to was a purely maize plantation. The nature of the land in this part of the country makes it easier for such crop to survive. The soil in the southern part of the country is rich in nutrients for the production of the crops.

Mr Aseidu being the okyeame in the village, we visited his farm and he showed us how to identify a maize crop when it is ready for harvesting. The tuition he gave us was that the maize crop is ready for harvest, we will see the husk in a brown color and it is noisy when you touch it. Another indication was that the maize plant itself will also die as in there will be no life in it.
