The seven-member Management Board are Dr Andre Bationo, Chairperson, Prof. Gabriel Nii Noi Dowuena, Nana Kwaku Siaw, Mr. Samuel Oduro, Prof. Moses Mochiah, Mrs. Genevieve Yankey, and Dr. Edward Yeboah.<\/p>\n<p>Prof. Bosu said the Institution would continue to hinge on its corporate strategic plan which encompassed CSIR rebranding and visibility and private sector involvement to be able to market itself better.<\/p>\n<p>The plan also involved private sector driven research and development as well as financial research mobilization. The Director General proposed that the institute set up a Grants and Projects Office where scientists could focus on project development.<\/p>\n<p>On the encroachment on CSIR lands by private developers, Prof. Bosu appealed Ghanaians not to fall victim to unscrupulous people engaged in illegal sale of CSIR lands, explaining that their lands were not for sale. He commended the SRI for its immense contribution to the growth of Ghana\u2019s agricultural and research development.<\/p>\n<p>He also congratulated them for setting up soil analytical laboratory and converting the analytical soil maps of Ghana into the digital format which was helping farmers to digitally access the maps to know the type of soils to cultivate their crops.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Bationo pledged the board\u2019s commitment to working closely with the Institute\u2019s internal management to address prevailing challenges. He encouraged scientists to work in teams towards developing concepts to address soil fertility in Ghana with the associated negative impact on food and nutrition society.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
