I am very grateful for this thesis grant awarded to me by the African Interdisciplinary Research Institute, this will be used to partly cover the cost of my data collection. Primary data sourced from Ejura Sekyeduamse and Nkoranza North from 430 farmers will be used for my study, hence the need for financial resources. This grant will enable me to recruit more experienced enumerators for the collection of data and cover travel and accommodation expenses. This will go a long way to enhance the quality of my data and hence the quality of my research outcomes.
