Our business people will be very well-positioned to have productive engagements in these areas as well as in agriculture, oil and gas,\u201d the Vice President stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said the President Akufo-Addo-led Government was looking forward to having partnerships with India businesses towards setting up of pharmaceutical and automotive industries, adding that the country was on industrialization drive with the ambition to add value to every commodity and minerals by establishing gold, bauxite, iron and steel refineries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe have an ambitious agenda to industrialize and add value to every resource and since India has a lot of experience in industrialization, we believe that the nation can help us fulfill our dream of industrializing Ghana,\u201d Dr Bawumia emphasized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said since between 60 and 70 per cent of Ghanaians are engaged in agriculture, it is the Government\u2019s expectation to leap the transformation agenda by ensuring farmers leveraged on technology for increased productivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this way, he said, farmers could access information on prices of products in different markets and access information on the right application of&nbsp;fertilizers&nbsp;using their mobile phones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vice President Bawumia said with the implementation of the digital property address system, farmers could have access to any farm in the country to purchase inputs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ghana and India have had fruitful relations dating back to the 1960s, a foundation laid by Ghana\u2019s first President, Osagyefo Dr Kwame Nkrumah and India\u2019s first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source:&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ghananewsagency.org\/economics\/ghana-to-leverage-on-india-s-experiences-towards-becoming-pharmaceutical-hub-146926\"><strong>GNA<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has said the Government is focused on establishing partnerships with Indian businesses to aid Ghana\u2019s ambition of becoming the pharmaceutical hub in West Africa.
