This is because the Volta Lake puts the area in immense comparative advantage when it comes to aquaculture. Speaking to Radio Ghana at Amankwakrom in the Afram Plains a patron of the Abomasarefo Youth in Agriculture Project, William Dzamesi noted that the development of aquaculture in the Afram Plains will create employment in the area and reduce rural-urban migration of the youth.
He called on the Ministry of Education, Science and Sports to consider turning the Amankwakrom Technical Institute into an aquaculture training institution.
