Remarkable progress has been achieved with implementation of the emergency livelihood interventions which reached 48,950 conflict-affected farmers with support packages to re- engage in crop and livestock production. Rehabilitation of community water infrastructure is fully deployed in all the project zones. Irrigation and drainage services improved in the area of 1.980 ha, and some 12,420 households already benefit from the on-going or completed rehabilitation works. 6,420 workers benefitting from wage employment and a total of 165,000 work days have been created. Activities aimed at support to animal husbandry, livestock production and veterinary services are advancing. Equipment to enhance animal husbandry distributed to 100 farmers groups. Vaccination campaign commenced with support of the Yemen General Directorate of Animal Health. Provision of production inputs to dairy farmers and honey producers started as project support to value chains. Notwithstanding these positive results, there have been issues with the project safeguard aspects which require close follow up and improvements. 5/13/2019 Page 1 of 7 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Smallholder Agricultural Production Restoration and Enhancement Project (P162659) Risks Systematic Operations Risk-rating Tool Risk Category Rating at Approval Previous Rating Current Rating Political and Governance High High High Macroeconomic High High High Sector Strategies and Policies High High High Technical Design of Project or Program Substantial Substantial Substantial Institutional Capacity for Implementation and Sustainability Substantial Substantial Substantial Fiduciary High High High Environment and Social High High High Stakeholders High High High Other -- -- -- Overall High High High Results PDO Indicators by Objectives / Outcomes To increase the use of productivity and nutrition-enhancing agricultural practices by smallholders IN00696459 ►Farmers adopting improved agricultural technology (Number, Corporate) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 4,000.00 4,344.00 10,000.00 Date 03-Aug-2017 01-Oct-2018 31-Dec-2018 31-Aug-2020 IN00696460 Farmers adopting improved agricultural technology - Female (Number, Corporate Supplement) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 1,531.00 1,550.00 3,000.00 IN00696466 Farmers adopting improved agricultural technology - male (Number, Corporate Supplement) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 2,469.00 2,794.00 7,000.00 IN00696467 5/13/2019 Page 2 of 7 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Smallholder Agricultural Production Restoration and Enhancement Project (P162659) ►Households supported to resume crop and livestock production (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 47,333.00 48,950.00 35,000.00 Date 03-Aug-2017 01-Oct-2018 31-Dec-2018 31-Aug-2020 44,950 households have been provided with staple seed packages, 4,000 farmers received backyard poultry packages and small ruminants for restocking.The actual quantity of seeds under the signed contracts with seed suppliers has exceeded the originally estimated volume, which allowed to reach Comments: additional 14,000 beneficiaries. therefore, the actual number of beneficiaries reached exceeds the target number by 40%.
