There will be hunger, already there is hunger and the hunger will be more because I don\u2019t foresee government getting money to support farmers to produce.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He added \u201cthere is deliberate policy to reduce out put. When you refuse to invest what are you doing?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He further said that Ghana does not have enough food available to feed the people for even one month without importing more food commodities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reality is that a lot of food items are imported into the country therefore, when upheavals and other economic challenges occur in those countries, automatically they become Ghana&#8217;s issues, Mr Kareweh added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe realty is that we do not have enough food in this country. The reality is that we import so much into this country.
