Agricultural practices can be challenging in the valleys and on the hillsides along the Akwapim-Togo range. Here, about 8km north of Yogoga, we see hand prepared and managed strip farming, topped by telecom and TV towers. Awareness of erosion from such practices and how to mitigate against it for long term sustainability, needs to be shared with those who earn their daily bread from the struggle on the slopes.
