To tackle deforestation and rejuvenate damaged areas, Apex10 Organic Fertilizer Booster—a key offering from Kings Global Ventures—has partnered with the Government of Ghana under the Tree for Life Reforestation Initiative.
Launched last month at Nkawie by President John Dramani Mahama, the initiative seeks to curb illegal mining (galamsey) and deforestation while promoting sustainable land use practices.
The inauguration ceremony gathered important participants such as the Ashanti Regional Minister, Dr. Frank Amoakohene; the Minister for Lands and Natural Resources Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah; traditional authorities, along with representatives from the Forestry Commission and the Apex10 group hailing from the Greater Accra, Ashanti, Bono, and Western areas. The presence of students and local residents further highlighted the widespread interest in this project.
Reviving Ghana’s woodlands involves more than simply planting trees; it necessitates effective soil management and enrichment with nutrients,” stated Dennis Avorkpo, the National Operations Coordinator at Apex10. “Apex10 aims to boost the development of tree crops while enhancing soil quality, thus playing a crucial role in restoration initiatives.
In line with their dedication to sustainable farming practices and ecological rejuvenation, Kings Global Ventures provided cases of Apex10 Organic Fertilizer Enhancer to the Nkawie Forestry Commission and joined in the official tree-planting ceremony together with government representatives.
The organic fertilizer, which boosts soil fertility and aids in cultivating trees like cocoa and rubber, is seen as an essential resource for restoring areas damaged by deforestation and mining operations.
The Tree of Life project emerges at a crucial moment as Ghana grapples with the urgent need to combat illicit mining operations and safeguard its natural assets. The Forestry Commission reports that substantial sections of the nation’s forest reserves have been depleted because of unchecked practices.
Aside from its function in tree planting initiatives, Apex10 is also becoming popular in agriculture as a green substitute for chemical fertilizers.
The business has broadened its presence throughout major farming areas such as Greater Accra, Eastern, Kumasi, Volta, Oti, Ahafo, Bono, Western, Western-North, along with five (5) northern regions, consistently aiding local farmers in these locations.
“As sustainability in agriculture gains more importance, we aim to establish Apex10 as a reliable ally for both farmers and those committed to environmental preservation,” stated Shiabu Issaka, who oversees western regional operations at Apex10.
He noted that the initiative’s enduring success over time will hinge on sustained corporate participation, strict government implementation of environmental rules, and active public involvement.
“Nonetheless, through strategic collaborations and consistent funding, Ghana’s initiatives to restore deforested areas and rejuvenate impaired landscapes seem to be gathering pace,” emphasized King Ohene Obeng Asomaning, CEO of Apex10.
