Ghana is today, December 5, 2025, marking the 41st edition of the National Farmers' Day celebration.
This year's celebration opened on Monday, December 1, at the Ho Sports Stadium with the launch of the 2025 National Agricultural Fair, which drew thousands of farmers, agripreneurs, policymakers, investors, and exhibitors from across the country.
Held under the theme “Feed Ghana, Eat Ghana, Secure the Future,” the event marks the beginning of a week-long showcase of agricultural innovation, technology, and strategic partnerships aimed at strengthening Ghana’s food systems and improving resilience in the sector.
Today’s event will see President John Dramani Mahama honouring the national best farmers across various crop categories and other key areas of agriculture.
Thousands of Ghanaians are also expected to participate in national, regional, and district activities, where outstanding farmers will be honoured for their excellence in productivity, innovation, and community impact.
Since Farmers' Day was introduced by the Ministry of Food and Agriculture in 1988, the first Friday in December has been set aside to honour farmers and fishermen for their efforts in feeding the nation and recognise the vital contributions of a strong agricultural sector to the prosperity of the Ghanaian economy.
