The Minister for Food and Agriculture, Eric Opoku, has expressed concern over the failure of many African governments to meet the long-standing commitment of allocating at least 10 percent of their national budgets to agriculture and rural development.
Speaking at the 4th Inter-Parliamentary Conference on Family, Sovereignty and Values, he noted that some countries on the continent allocate less than 1 percent of their budgets to agriculture, describing the situation as inadequate to drive meaningful economic transformation.
He stressed that agriculture remains central to poverty reduction, food security, and sustainable development, and urged stronger political will and investment in the sector across Africa.
