520 _aABSTRACT The scarcity of water has been exacerbated as a result of growing population and industrialisation. Human demand for water is not only for households’ consumption but also is for industrial usage. Additionally, emphasise on public health and individual’s sanitation are more prevailing in comparison to years ago which necessitate the consumption of good quality water. The residents of Breman Jamra are facing a challenge of getting access to portable water. They depend on unsafe water for their living. The study seeks to analyse the demand and supply of water management in the rural areas. A quantitative method, questionnaire-based survey was used. A simple random sampling method was used to collect all the data. The population of the study was the residents of Breman Jamra in the Askuma-OdobenBrakwa district of the Central Region of Ghana. 281 randomly sampled households’ average quantity of water demand were estimated and the factors that influence the quantity of water consumed in the district were determined. Moreover, households’ average willing to pay for better quality water in Breman Jamra in the AskumaOdoben-Brakwa district was estimated. In addition, the factors that influence the willingness to pay for quality water in the district were measured. The specified sources of water to the residents were observed, namely rivers, rainwater, bore-holes, pumps, tube wells, public taps, standpipes, wells, and sachet water. The average daily water consumption in Beman Jamra was found to be between 5-7 buckets of water, and residents were willing to pay GH0.20 per bucket of water for a consistent and reliable water source.
