Country Abbreviations

Ghana borders in the west on the Republic of Ivory Coast, in the north on Burkina Faso, in the east on Togo and in the south on the Gulf of Guinea (Atlantic Ocean).

Ghana can be divided into the following geographical zones: The coast with the Volta Delta in the east and the 100 km inland Akan Plain in the west. In the northwest, the Ashanti highlands (up to 788 m above sea level) and the Kwahu plateau (water and weather divide) join. The rivers on its east side flow into the Volta, those on the west side into the Atlantic. In the northeast is the mountain range of the Akwapi ridge (between Accra and the Volta; about 200 m above sea level) and the Togo-Atakora mountains (east of the lower Volta and Oti; in Mount Afadjato 880 m above sea level). Further north is the Volta Basin, followed by the 400 m high plains of the northern regions. The Akosombo dam around 100 km northeast of Accra dams the Volta; With an area of ​​8,482 km ², the Volta Lake is one of the largest reservoirs on earth.

GHA is the three-letter country code of Ghana, and GH is the two-letter country code of Ghana. The two-letter suffix is used in top-level domains on the Internet as .gh.

Agriculture

Over 50% of the workforce is employed in the agricultural sector. The most important crop is cocoa. Along with the Republic of Ivory Coast and Indonesia, Ghana is one of the world’s largest providers. The main growing area is to the west and east of Kumasi. In addition to vegetables and pulses, the most important crops for the local market are corn, cassava, yams, taro, millet, rice and bananas. However, permanent self-sufficiency is not guaranteed due to changeable weather conditions. The livestock industry (especially cattle, sheep, goats) is largely restricted to the northern savannah and the area around Accra due to frequent periods of drought and the spread of the disease-transmitting tsetse fly.

Forestry: Precious wood and wood products are important export products. In recent years, the forest stock has continued to decline due to massive – partly illegal – deforestation and slash and burn. In 1991 over a third of the country’s area was still forested, in 2014 – despite reforestation programs – not even a quarter. Most of the logging in the country is used as firewood.

Fisheries: With a coastline of over 500 km and 10,000 km ^{2 of} inland waters (especially Volta reservoir), Ghana has great fishing potential. The abundance of fish is only of great importance for the self-sufficiency of the population.
