Problems associated with water in Ghanaian agricultural villages.

Most farming towns and villages in Ghana are famously water-scarce. In just about all cases, this makes borehole digging difficult. The rainfall and flowing rivers are the principal sources of water in most Ghanaian settlements where farming is the main occupation. They are collected and reserved for future use throughout the wet seasons. Although rainwater is filtered, it is what the majority of village residents consume, wash, and cook with.

Rainy season are unpredictable, so when the dry season arrives, residents living in water-stressed areas supplement that with wells and running rivers built by rural men. Wells, on the other hand, are everywhere. It is important to note that there is not a single farming village in Ghana whose residents do not rely on flowing rivers and deteriorating wells.

Among the most fundamental challenges that most communities have faced over the years with wells built by community members is children drowning into them, which has become nearly a regular disaster. It is encouraging to see that the hive blockchain has made steps to provide some of these towns with modern and clean water systems free of these issues.

Most communities in Ghana have problems with the primitive styles of wells and rivers that are accessible for usage. Only contemporary ones, like as those built by hive, do not run dry even during the dry season. This is due to how they are constructed and the many processes they go through. To prevent the fall of children and other materials into the olden type of wells, most Ghanaian communities have long depended on streams and rivers for their usage.

Unfortunately, individuals seeking water from streams and rivers will have to travel long distances to get it. They constantly move on as each one dries off before coming to the stream just in time for the rainy season to begin again. In this approach, people moved from the cleanest stream to the unclean river. Rather of pouring water into the gutters, communities utilize the runoff from dishwashing and bathing to flush the toilets. Owing to lack of water, individuals guarantee that used water is spilled on the complex where they reside in order for the veggies to flourish.

Till after government and organizations visit these agricultural communities, people will keep suffering from water shortages, as well as illness and disease. Today, the hive ecosystem is receiving attention for providing a better water system for some of these towns and communities. Through the hive ecosystem, we are assisting in ensuring that most water-stressed areas in Ghana get adequate drinking water. With this, we show the world the hive brand's power to impact lives in Ghana and beyond.
