In 2007, the Chinese Government pledged to send senior agricultural experts and youth volunteers to Ghana to render various services. In September 2009, 3 agricultural experts specializing in irrigation, rice and fishery arrived in Ghana. The specialists guided the construction planning of agricultural and fishery demonstration bases for Chinese-funded enterprises and provided fish pond design and scientific and technological consultation for 10 local farms. They returned to China on September 1, 2010. The monetary value of this technical assistance mission is unknown.
