Figure 4 shows the trend in the rice import penetration ratio in Ghana based on an assumption
of 65% milling yield rate for paddy rice.5 The figure shows that while the import penetration
ratio increased between 2000 and 2003, peaking at about 486% – implying that the country

domestic rice production in since 2007 (as seen in Figure 1), some consider the current import
penetration ratio as still high. This has prompted debates about the appropriate policies to
implement to address the high rice importation levels.
