Abstract: This research work aims to pinpoint the actual production factors that are deteriorating and explore the essence of genetically modified organism (GMO) in helping to combat the degrading nature of production factors in Ghana. Agriculture has always employed dynamic processes from seed sowing to harvest over the years, but there are key factors that are non-negotiable in the sector, production factors. There has been diverse research and view on what production factors are inclusive in agriculture’s production factors. This notwithstanding, aside these divergent views, land, labour and capital still remain the most essential part of the production factors in agriculture. Ghana just like any other country has employed these factors but is lagging in hitting the productivity mark. There has been numerous research works, to dissect the roadblocks to agriculture yields in Ghana. Genetically modified organism as a section of biological innovation will be of an immerse and complete supplement to the production factors in Ghana if we look forward to achieving a bountiful agriculture harvest. The paper comprises selected facts and opinions on the GMO production development in Ghana in the nearest future and some factors influencing the development of GM food production, including land, labour and capital in Ghanaian agriculture.
