Country harvest picked up (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ghana

'country' is the definition.
(Ghana is an example)

'harvest picked up' is the wordplay.
'harvest' becomes 'garner'.
'picked up' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'garner' is a homophone of 'GHANA'.

(Other definitions for ghana that I've seen before include "West African republic" , "nation" , "West African country, independent since 1957" , "W. African state" , "Hang a country in Africa" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
