Sándor Farkas emphasised that Hungary considers Ghana as its special partner, where Hungarian economic actors are already present, whose numbers are hoped to increase through agrardiplomacy. He mentioned the Ghanaian-Hungarian model farm that has been operating since the autumn of 2017, whose success inspired new projects that Hungary is working on. Besides seed cultivation, they are planning to introduce Hungarian domestic species like pigs and poultry.
Such model farms are a great way to showcase Hungarian products and innovations and can pave the way for their introduction into the Ghanaian market. Hungary is ready to share its processing expertise, and Ghana is open to such initiatives.
