Apex-10 donates fertiliser boosters to the Odoben community in Central Region
KGV Global, the distributors and consulting arm of Apex-10, has donated Apex10 organic fertiliser boosters to farmers in the Adoben Community, a suburb of Ghana’s Central Region.
The donation forms part of the organisation’s sensitisation give back campaign themed “Apex-10 Operations Feed in support of MOFA and Ghanaian Farmers”.
The sensitisation campaign, among other things, seeks to donate 16 thousand litres of Apex-10 to communities across Ghana’s 16 regions.
KGV Global is currently the sole distributor of fertiliser boosters in the West, North Africa, the Caribbean, and South America.
Prince Opoku, an agronomist at the Ministry of Food and Agriculture (MoFA) and also a liaison and advocate of Apex-10 organic fertiliser booster, explained that the goal of the sensitisation and donation is to make farming appealing to both new and experienced farmers while also enhancing human nutrition, livelihoods, and the economy at large.
“The primary recipients of these donations, which will be made in all of the nation’s regions, are farmers. The purpose of this sensitisation is to inform farmers in these communities about the benefits of using organic fertilisers as well as the transformational and yield-boosting effects of Apex10. Basically, the goal is to revive the agricultural industry, make it more appealing, and entice more people to become farmers because doing so has the potential to strengthen the economy as a whole, “he stated.
According to him, Apex-10 is a fertiliser additive that aims to boost crop yields across a range of crops, from greening grasses to vegetables and tree crops.
“Apex10 has been shown to improve soil quality, increase fertiliser effectiveness, decrease water usage, and create healthier, more resilient plants and harvests. It can be applied practically everywhere and will be very helpful to our farmers,” he added.
Chief of the community, Nana Nyakor Atta, who received the fertilizer boosters on behalf of the beneficiaries, said the donation had come in time as it would give farmers hope after they failed efforts to revive their farms due to the lack of additional inputs required to restore soils that have become barren.
“Initially, there wasn’t much that our farmers could do because fertilisers are expensive, and it’s even challenging because of the war between Russia and Ukraine. However, we are currently receiving organic fertiliser boosters instead of merely fertilisers, and based on feedback from other farmers who have tried it, we are confident that our farms will be restored,” he said.
