Produktbeschreibung
This book attempts to understand the trend of budget allocations to the agriculture sector; assess the gender-specific initiatives explored through national budgeting in agriculture and deep dive into the existing monitoring mechanisms for tracking state investments in agriculture in Ghana. It finds that while there has been a consistent decline in state budgetary allocation to agriculture over the years; this is only reflective in real terms. From a nominal perspective, there is quite a steady growth. Also government's investment in the sector has been skewed towards recurrent expenditure such as salaries, subsidies and administrative costs thus leaving a gap in the core business of agriculture. Gender focus of national budgetary allocation has also been poor with little or no special attention to the needs of women. In all of these, the study however argues strongly that there have been quite significant efforts both by government and CSOs to monitor and track national level budgetary allocation to agriculture.
