The project is continuing with a cluster-based cooperative farming approach for making small landholdings remunerative. Apart from various types of watershed treatments, the project has engaged 5 Agribusiness Support Organizations (ABSO) to cluster farmers and aggregate high value commodities to attract traders. As ABSOs have successfully demonstrated number of aggregations and processing activities for a range of commodities. The project has approved establishment of 7 Agribusiness Growth Centres to collect, process, package, and market commodities produced in the project area. 10/18/2019 Page 2 of 10 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Uttarakhand Decentralized Watershed Development II Project (P131235) 10/18/2019 Page 3 of 10 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Uttarakhand Decentralized Watershed Development II Project (P131235) Risks Systematic Operations Risk-rating Tool Risk Category Rating at Approval Previous Rating Current Rating Political and Governance -- ►Moderate ►Moderate Macroeconomic -- ►Low ►Low Sector Strategies and Policies -- ►Low ►Low Technical Design of Project or Program -- ►Moderate ►Moderate Institutional Capacity for Implementation and Sustainability -- ►Moderate ►Moderate Fiduciary -- ►Moderate ►Moderate Environment and Social -- ►Moderate ►Moderate Stakeholders -- ►Moderate ►Moderate Other -- ►Moderate ►Moderate Overall -- ►Moderate ►Moderate Results PDO Indicators by Objectives / Outcomes To increase the efficiency of natural resource use and productivity of rainfed agriculture IN00730851 ►Increase in water discharge (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 10.00 18.50 25.00 Date 01-Apr-2014 28-Sep-2018 30-Aug-2019 30-Sep-2021 Sample sources have already achieved the end target and the team is expecting the discharge rate to increase further over Comments: the next 3 years.
