We are happy to announce that we have English and French audio productions of some of our award-winning scripts on Farmer Innovation.  Our thanks goes out to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations.  Another thanks goes out to the musical artist, Okuani Kofi whose song is in this week’s featured production. He calls himself  ‘the farmer’ and the title of the song is Wo kua meaning “your farm” .

The first of our audio productions is from the script: A farmer uses jatropha to protect his young oil palm seedlings from rodents.   This award-winning script was written by Rosemond Ohene from Rite FM in Ghana.
