India and Ghana Sign Historic MoU to Advance Agricultural Research, Education, and Technology Transfer

India and Ghana have signed a five-year Memorandum of Understanding between the Indian Council of Agricultural Research and the Crops Research Institute of Ghana to advance agricultural research, education, and technology transfer. The partnership focuses on South-South and India-Africa collaboration, with initial efforts targeting vegetable crop research (especially tomato research and development), processing and value addition of cassava, yam, and other tuber crops, and post-harvest management. The framework also enables the exchange of scientists, germplasm, and breeding materials, supported by a Joint Working Group.
