Glofert, one of Ghana’s leading fertiliser production companies has set up a state-of-the-art, blending plant worth 1.7 million euros at Suhum in the Eastern region.

With the capacity of producing 2,400 metric tons of fertiliser a day, the facility is currently the biggest fertiliser blending plant in the country.

The ultra-modern facility is set to improve upon farming by increasing the yields of farmers and subsequently boost the economy through agriculture.

Speaking during the International Fertiliser Development Centre’s (IFDC) field trip to Glofert as part of their workshop in Ghana on Wednesday, President of Glofert, Foster M.Benson said, the facility would help address the yield deficit suffered by farmers in the country.

“There is a huge gap on yield in terms of farmers meeting the yield expected. Most crops produced in Ghana are about 50 per cent yield deficit,” he stated.
