Mr. Amidu Chinnia Issahaku also observed that the main occupation of the people in the region is agriculture but the region only utilizes one single rainy season that lasts less than three months and therefore will work closely with the minister to make recommendations on some crops that can be developed in the region

“As an agriculturalist I will want to suggest to my Regional Minister that we can make certain recommendations on some other crops that can be developed in the Upper West region.
