What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

The Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) is targeting at least GH¢310 billion in domestic revenue by 2028, nearly double the GH¢182 billion collected in 2025, through tax reforms and digitalization to support industrial growth. Concurrently, the Ministry of Food and Agriculture advocated for increased investment in cashew processing to help Africa retain more value from its production. Eric Opoku, the Minister for Food and Agriculture, called for stronger collaboration among governments, farmers, investors, and development partners to capture more value from the cashew industry.
