Executive Director of the Peasant Farmers Association, Charles Nyaaba, claimed that Ghana's tomato industry has collapsed. He attributed the collapse to the lack of government attention towards the local production of this crop and the agricultural sector as a whole. "Our tomato industry in Ghana has collapsed because they don't pay attention to our local production. The figures we are seeing now are likely to continue," Charles Nyaaba added. According to the Peasant Farmers Association of Ghana, consumers should purchase food items like maize, rice, and millet, among others, in bulk and store them because food prices are going to escalate.
