Comparative study demonstrates improved soil health and crop yields in Ghanaian agriculture, suggesting sustainability benefits.
Ghana's agricultural sector faces challenges in maintaining soil health and fertility due to intensive farming practices and environmental degradation. A comparative study was conducted using a mixed-method approach, including interviews with farmers (n=30), field observations, and soil analysis. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics for qualitative insights and regression models for quantitative comparisons. Agroecological practices showed an average increase of 15% in crop yields compared to conventional methods, with a significant retention rate of 20% more nutrients in the soil over three growing seasons. Agroecological practices significantly improve soil health and fertility in Ghanaian agricultural settings, contributing to sustainable farming outcomes. Government support should be directed towards promoting agroecology education and training for farmers, alongside policy incentives for adopting these practices.
