Blank cheque - if you give someone a blank cheque, you authorise them to do what they think is best in a difficult situation.

Example - Tom was given a blank cheque and told to negotiate the best deals possible.

Revamping the poultry sector will the policies ever work?

Image
In spite of the numerous projects and policies initiated by successive governments to revamp and scale up the performance of Ghana’s poultry industry, the sector continues to underperform, with industry players fearing that the sector could collapse in future. Over the past decade, the government has initiated at least five separate strategic policies and programmes targeted at building the capacities of local poultry farms to meet the country’s increasing demand for poultry products. They include the Cockerel Project (2009), SADA Guinea Fowl Production Project (2013), Broiler Revitalisation Project (2015), CSIR-ARI ARIBRO Project (2015) and the Livestock Policy and Strategy Document (2016). The Broiler Revitalisation Programme, for instance, was introduced with the intention of reducing poultry imports by 40 per cent. However, the plan flopped. According to the poultry farmers, it was bedevilled with low sales as local producers had to contend with cheap imports. For example, while a...

Information pieced together by Eddie's Dailies, indicate that the facilities, four of which were renovated and one newly constructed, await inauguration before the pupils are allowed to access them.

Following the long wait, the pupils, most of whom are in kindergarten and lower primary, resort to emptying their bo...

Increasing demand for honey, time to attend to beekeeping industry

Image
In spite of Ghana having one of the best climatic conditions suitable for beekeeping and honey production, the country imports more than 600 tonnes of honey worth millions of cedis every month. Data from the Federation of Ghana Bee Keepers Association (FGBA) showed that although about 70 per cent of the country's vegetation supported beekeeping, more than 60 per cent of honey consumed or for manufacturing purposes were sourced from foreign markets, including Burkina Faso. According to the federation, the situation was mainly attributable to the increasing demand for honey on the local market and failure on the part of local producers to match the demand. It attributed the failure to the lack of adequate resources and inputs at the disposal of local industry players, owing to the absence of credit schemes and policy direction to propel them to produce in commercial quantities. This, perhaps, summarises the extent to which Ghana's beekeeping and honey industry has been neglect...
