The ecological zones of the Upper East Region and Northeast Region are typically Sudan Savannah.  The area has warm temperature throughout the entire year. Its dispersed tree cover enables the growth of many grasses and shrubs, which are of benefit to life stock. This case study documents some of what is taking place in the agroecological zones in the Upper East and Northeast Regions of Ghana.  This case study introduces readers to some of the farmers extending agroecological practices in the two regions, and two of the non-governmental organizations (NGOs) which support them.  Agroecological agriculture is demonstrating exactly why it is the present and the future.
