Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project Objective? No Components Table Name Support to agricultural productivity and access to markets:(Cost $41.08 M) Irrigation development and feeder road rehabilitation:(Cost $20.28 M) Management and coordination of project activities:(Cost $8.84 M) Overall Ratings Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO Moderately Satisfactory Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Moderately Satisfactory Moderately Satisfactory Overall Risk Rating High High Implementation Status and Key Decisions This is the last implementation support mission of the Additional Financing (AF). The project made significant progress following the last mission: most of the PDO indicators will reach 100% or more by the end of the project. The disbursement rate to date is 87% and, given existing commitments, it is expected to reach 97% by the end of the project. This suggests upgrading the PDO rating to Satisfactory. However, several delays have been noted, under component1 ( Sub-Projects of post-harvest processing) and component2( infrastructure works for irrigation schemes rehabilitation for a total of 914 ha throughout 6 sites and, for 80 kms of feeder roads rehabilitation). Although the PIU is confident that all these activities will be completed by the end of the project (measures to ensure delivery of equipments are taken, works are completed at 70% to 100% for marshland and 27% to 72% for feeder roads), there is a high risk of lack of ownership and low capacity of the beneficiaries to sustainably manage and maintain these new infrastructures and equipments. Therefore, it is proposed to remain the ratings of the Implementation Progress and the 2 components to Moderately Satisfactory. The mission recommended the PIU and implementing partners to ensure a strict compliance to the 1/19/2020 Page 1 of 8 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report BI - Agro-Pastoral Productivity and Markets Development Project (P107343) agreed timeframe for both component 1 (post-harvest agro processing) and component 2 (marshland and feeder roads) to avoid further delays, and to explore collaboration with implementing partners and other projects (financed by the WB or others) to ensure follow up of recently completed sub- projects (for component 1) and continue the works on legal framework for Water Users Association (Component 2). Consulting firm to conduct the borrowers Implementation Completion Report has been identified. The mission recommended the PIU to work closely with the consultant to ensure that the validated report is available by the end of the project.

This figure decreased while the number of funded SPs increased by the simple fact that the 7,468 beneficiaries Comments: were withdrawn from the 2 PS repairing the structures because it was noticed that they were already counted among the beneficiaries of the initial phase among beneficiaries of SP of rice for the development of the developed marshlands. 1/19/2020 Page 2 of 8 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report BI - Agro-Pastoral Productivity and Markets Development Project (P107343) IN00778982 Female beneficiaries (Number, Custom Breakdown) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 49.50 48.30 48.10 50.00 Date 31-Dec-2016 30-Apr-2019 29-Nov-2019 31-Jan-2020 IN00778983 ►Productivity increases in selected value chains supported by the AF (Metric ton, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 Date 31-Dec-2016 30-Apr-2019 29-Nov-2019 31-Jan-2020 The average is expressed in metric tons/ha.

The yields for the value chains covered by the project have been mentioned as disaggregated Comments: sub-indicators. The M&E officer in the PIU in collaboration with IITA, as main implementing agency, have been asked to better handle the case of banana, coffee and milk on which there is no updated information.
