Farming is not for the faint of heart; you shouldn\u2019t wait until retirement to start,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Atiemo\u2019s journey in farming began 25 years ago. Initially working as a printer, he used the opportunity to study the agricultural materials he handled. Today, he is a successful mixed farmer, cultivating over 700 acres and raising more than 100,000 birds per cycle. He expressed deep gratitude to Stanbic Bank for the tractor, noting that it will significantly boost the efficiency and output of his farmlands.<\/p>\n<p>Samuel Okang-Boye, Head of Agribusiness at Stanbic Bank Ghana, emphasised the importance of supporting agriculture. \u201cWe are honoured to be empowering and recognising hard work.\u00a0 Africa is our home, just as Ghana is our home and we drive her growth. Farming is critical to our economic progress, and we are proud to be supporting this vital sector to drive growth of the economy,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>With a commitment to driving sustainable growth, Stanbic Bank provides tailored financial solutions, technical expertise, and advisory support to various stakeholders across the agricultural value chain. From smallholder farmers to agribusinesses, the bank partners with industry players to enhance productivity, promote innovation, and build resilience within the sector.\u00a0 This year\u2019s donation was in collaboration with a client of the bank, Mechanical Lloyd, agents of Massey Ferguson.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to its financial contributions, Stanbic Bank has proudly been a longstanding supporter of the National Farmers\u2019 Day celebration for over 17 years. Through its sponsorship, the bank honours Ghanaian farmers and agricultural entrepreneurs who play a crucial role in the country\u2019s food security and economic development.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 2 -->\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ransford Kwaku Otopa Atiemo, the 2024 Best Farmer second runner-up (middle) with some officials of the bank and Seth Kwame Acheampong, Eastern Regional Minister \u00a0 Ransford Kwaku Otopa Atiemo, the 2024 Best Farmer second runner-up won a brand-new Massey Ferguson tractor, complete with accessories donated by Stanbic Bank Ghana.
