Hon. David Kwasi Asare Boakye popularly called Adwumawura, the DCE for Offinso North in the Ashanti region has identified climate change and bush fires as the major challenges to the farmers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has therefore cautioned farmers, hunters, palm wine tappers, Fulani herdsmen, and other people who engage in activities that trigger bush fires to halt with immediate effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hon. Asare Boakye made this observation during the 37th Farmers’ Day Celebration in the Offinso North District held at Nkenkaasu where a total of 10 deserving farmers comprising of 8 men and 2 women from various categories were awarded certificates and farming implements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hon Asare Boakye gave a strong warning that any individual or group of persons who will flout the anti bush fire regulation will face the law and prosecution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hon. has pleaded with the people to make farming one of the key occupations to success. He says his office is open to farmers who deserved help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

46 year old, David Kwadwo Wiafe from Nkenkaasu was been emerged as the 37th District best Offinso North Farmer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He took home a motor King and other farming implements. He was grateful for the honour done him and encouraged the youth to venture into agriculture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
