The minister highlighted his region's vast agricultural potential across 10,200 square kilometers of territory. Volta Region contains 28,000 hectares of farmable land perfect for crops and livestock operations. The area offers strong opportunities for agriculture, food processing and travel industries. Gunu emphasized the region's rice production capabilities as a major draw for Chinese partners. The minister pointed to Africa's longest artificial lake as a key regional asset. Volta Lake supports farming, fish cultivation and visitor attractions throughout the area. Twenty-two irrigation dams currently serve local farmers with two additional structures planned for construction. The region has prepared 1,500 acres of land for any investors wanting to build manufacturing facilities. Gunu stressed his administration's commitment to supporting new business development projects. The minister outlined three main goals driving regional growth efforts. Peace and stability remain the foundation for all economic progress initiatives. Local government offices need stronger capabilities to create jobs and attract investment dollars. Partnership building with national agencies and foreign investors will help achieve President Mahama's development vision. The five-day business summit brought together leaders from both nations to explore trade partnerships. Government officials organized the event to strengthen economic relationships between Ghana and China. Manufacturing, farming, tourism and technology sectors received special attention during conference discussions. Both countries seek expanded cooperation opportunities across multiple business areas.
