Creating a precious soil improver from farm waste is a pillar of production of top quality crops. Dorothy Duodu, from fruit-exporting company Blue Skies, is your guide to Ghana's way to make and use compost on a large scale.
This film, one of eleven, is being used to share good agricultural practice in Africa.
LEAF (http://www.leafuk.org), Waitrose, African fresh produce exporters and Green Shoots Productions (http://www.green-shoots.org) have been working with support of the UK Department for International Development's Food Retail Industry Challenge (FRICH) fund to share good agricultural practice between African farmers.

Agriculture is an important contributor to Ghana’s export earnings, and a major source of inputs for manufacturing. But agriculture has seen a recent reduction in growth, which needs to be reversed. The latest edition of the Ghana Economic Update recommends reforms to include increasing the efficiency and quality of public spending in agriculture and improving regulatory framework to attract more private investment into the sector.

Join me this Saturday at 8pm EST as I discuss how we can prepare for the technologically advanced world that is fast approaching with Dr. Kevin Kornegay, director of the Cybersecurity Assurance and Policy (CAP) Center at Morgan State University.
