Ghana’s agriculture economy contributes considerably to growth, accounting for around 19% of the country’s GDP and employing approximately 44% of the workforce. Agriculture data indicate that agricultural growth in Ghana has slowed since the country’s oil discoveries. The agriculture sector’s GDP share has declined from approximately 31% in 2000 to around 18% in 2019, while the oil and gas sector’s proportion has climbed from zero to over 9% during the same period. Through programs and restrictions that continue to hinder expansion, the government has dominated the industry.
