The government agriculture extension system in Ghana is in crisis, with the ratio of one agriculture extension agent to over six thousand farmers in some parts of the country. The situation is worse for women farmers, as socio-cultural factors further limit their ability to access extension services. Private sector extension providers take advantage of this crisis by promoting the use of agrochemicals and hybrids among climate vulnerable communities. ActionAid piloted this farmer-led, community-based extension service programme to ensure women farmers’ access to extension services, and to promote agroecology among smallholder farmers and their transition to Climate Resilient Sustainable Agriculture (CRSA).
