Accepted 6 December, 2012 A survey was conducted in three southern districts of the Volta Region of Ghana and Agbogbloshie market in Accra to ascertain current production constraints faced by farmers and consumers’ desired traits of cowpea. There were two focus group discussions, one in Akatsi and the other at Ketu North District. A total of 180 farmers, 45 food vendors, 30 seed dealers and 80 cowpea traders were interviewed. The interviewees were made up of 226 females and 109 males. Data were classified and analyzed with SAS 9.2 and results presented in tables and graphs. It was realized that most of the cowpea found in the markets at the time of this study were imported from different countries within the West Africa sub-region. Farmers normally sell their products at farm gate at the time of harvest. Preference for cowpea with cream large seeds which is sweet and easy to cook among Ghanaian consumers has not changed. Constraints to cowpea farming identified were similar to those known elsewhere: Including insect pests, diseases, drought, cyperus spp. as weed and harvesting difficulty. Key words: Cowpea, constraints, desired traits, insect pests, drought. INTRODUCTION Cowpea is the second most important food legume in and Diao, 2007). The inability of Ghana to produce Ghana. It is second to groundnut in terms of area under enough cowpea to feed the citizenry is multi-faceted. The cultivation, quantity produced and consumed annually. Guinea Savanna zone of Ghana is the major cowpea The area under cowpea cultivation in Ghana peaked in production area in the country (Al-Hassan and Diao, the year 2003 with 190,400 ha (MOFA, SRID, 2011). 2007). For paradigm, Upper West and Northern regions However, there have been slight reductions in the area produced 75,969 and105, 841 MT respectively in 2010 under cowpea cultivation from then to 163,700 ha in (MOFA, SRID, 2011). Unfortunately, production can be 2010. Despite the decline in area, total cowpea grain done only within a short period in the year in these production per annum has increased from 142,300 MT in regions because of long period of drought. Another major 2004 to 219,300 MT in 2010. This is an indication of factor that may be affecting the production and higher yields which may be due to adoption of consumption of cowpea in Ghana could be varietal combination of factors including better agronomic preference (Langyintuo et al., 2003). Ghanaians are practices and higher yielding varieties. known to prefer cream seeded cowpea (Quaye et al., Cowpea consumption is higher than production in 2009). Ghana. There was import of 3,380 MT of cowpea grains Production of cowpea with consumer preferred grain which supplemented the country’s production of 219,300 type could boost its cultivation in Ghana. The improved MT in 2010. This is however, a tremendous improvement cowpea varieties under cultivation in the country were over the deficit of 1990 which was 113,000 MT (Al-Hassan mostly released by the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) institutions.

    AKATSI NORTH DISTRICT Copyright © 2014 Ghana Statistical Service ii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT No meaningful developmental activity can be undertaken without taking into account the characteristics of the population for whom the activity is targeted. The size of the population and its spatial distribution, growth and change over time, in addition to its socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. A population census is the most important source of data on the size, composition, growth and distribution of a country’s population at the national and sub-national levels. Data from the 2010 Population and Housing Census (PHC) will serve as reference for equitable distribution of national resources and government services, including the allocation of government funds among various regions, districts and other sub-national populations to education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users, especially the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies, with district-level analytical reports based on the 2010 PHC data to facilitate their planning and decision-making. The District Analytical Report for the Akatsi North District is one of the 216 district census reports aimed at making data available to planners and decision makers at the district level. In addition to presenting the district profile, the report discusses the social and economic dimensions of demographic variables and their implications for policy formulation, planning and interventions. The conclusions and recommendations drawn from the district report are expected to serve as a basis for improving the quality of life of Ghanaians through evidence- based decision-making, monitoring and evaluation of developmental goals and intervention programmes.

  • Vowel Height Agreement in Ewe
    Journal of Applied Linguistics and Language Research Volume 4, Issue 7, 2017, pp. 206-216 Available online at www.jallr.com ISSN: 2376-760X Vowel Height Agreement in Ewe Pascal Kpodo * University of Education, Winneba, Ghana Abstract This paper seeks to give a descriptive account of a vowel height feature agreement process in Ewe. The paper establishes that the height agreement process is neither height harmony nor metaphony. The paper further demonstrates the systematic difference between the coastal dialects and the inland dialects of Ewe in relation to the vowel height agreement process. The height agreement occurs in the cliticization of diminutive marker to nouns and adjectives as well as the cliticization of the 3rd person singular object pronominal to verbs. While the agreement process is host controlled in the inland (Ʋedome) dialects of Ewe, it is enclitic controlled in the coastal (Aŋlɔ) dialects of Ewe. A synchronic analysis indicates that while [i] is the underlying form of the enclitic for the 3rd person singular object pronominal as well as the diminutive marker in the coastal dialects of Ewe, [e] is the underlying representation of the 3rd person singular object pronominal as well as the diminutive marker in the inland dialects of Ewe. Keywords: clitic, enclitic, metaphony, feature agreement BACKGROUND The Ewe Language is a member of the Kwa sub-group of the Volta-Comoe branch of the Niger-Congo language family. Ewe is a member of the Gbe language cluster spoken within an area stretching from the southwestern corner of Nigeria, across southern Benin and Togo into the Volta Region of Ghana (Capo, 1985; Stewart, 1989, as cited in Kluge, 2000).

Yeboah Augusta Okantey Emmanuel Nii Okang Tawiah Edited by: N.N.N. Nsowah-Nuamah Chief Editor: Nii Bentsi-Enchill ii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT There cannot be any meaningful developmental activity without taking into account the characteristics of the population for whom the activity is targeted. The size of the population and its spatial distribution, growth and change over time, and socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. The Kilimanjaro Programme of Action on Population adopted by African countries in 1984 stressed the need for population to be considered as a key factor in the formulation of development strategies and plans. A population census is the most important source of data on the population in a country. It provides information on the size, composition, growth and distribution of the population at the national and sub-national levels. Data from the 2010 Population and Housing Census (PHC) will serve as reference for equitable distribution of resources, government services and the allocation of government funds among various regions and districts for education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users with an analytical report on the 2010 PHC at the regional level to facilitate planning and decision-making. This follows the publication of the National Analytical Report in May, 2013 which contained information on the 2010 PHC at the national level with regional comparisons. Conclusions and recommendations from these reports are expected to serve as a basis for improving the quality of life of Ghanaians through evidence-based policy formulation, planning, monitoring and evaluation of developmental goals and intervention programs.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract This is a study of the processes through which the former Togoland Trust Territory has come to constitute an integral part of modern Ghana. As the section of the country that was most recently appended, the territory has often seemed the most likely candidate for the eruption of separatist tendencies. The comparative weakness of such tendencies, in spite of economic crisis and governmental failure, deserves closer examination. This study adopts an approach which is local in focus (the area being Likpe), but one which endeavours at every stage to link the analysis to unfolding processes at the Regional and national levels.
