A woman struggling to prevent a wide spread blazing fire consuming her sorghum farm in Jeffisi, a community in the Upper West Region.
This unbearable situation has been attributed to the numerous contributing factor to food insecurity in the three Northern Regions especially during the harmattan season, where many farmers loose most of their farm product due to bushfire.
The situation has also contributed to poverty and hunger in many of the rural communities when farmers have left with no food to feed on with their families during the dry season.
Bushfire in the savannah ecology zone over the years has been identified as one of the major socioeconomic problem stifling the economic progress of the people in the Northern Region especially among rural farmers who only rely on this for survival in the dry season.
