The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report DRC - Agriculture Rehabilitation and Recovery Support (P092724) DRC - Agriculture Rehabilitation and Recovery Support (P092724) AFRICA | Congo, Democratic Republic of | Agriculture and Food Global Practice | IBRD/IDA | Investment Project Financing | FY 2010 | Seq No: 20 | ARCHIVED on 17-Dec-2019 | ISR39556 | Implementing Agencies: DRC Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Agriculture, Democratic Republic of Congo, DRC Ministry of Finance, PARRSA PIU Key Dates Key Project Dates Bank Approval Date: 30-Mar-2010 Effectiveness Date: 31-Dec-2010 Planned Mid Term Review Date: 20-Feb-2014 Actual Mid-Term Review Date: 20-Feb-2014 Original Closing Date: 15-Dec-2015 Revised Closing Date: 23-Mar-2020 pdoTable Project Development Objectives Project Development Objective (from Project Appraisal Document) The project development objective (PDO) is to increase agricultural productivity and improve marketing of crops, and animal products by smallholder farmers in targeted areas. Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project Objective? Yes Board Approved Revised Project Development Objective (If project is formally restructured) To increase agricultural productivity and improve marketing of crops and animal products crops and animal products in targeted areas of the Recipient s territory. Components Table Name Component 1: Improve agricultural and animal production:(Cost $36.85 M) Component 2: Improve market related Infrastructure:(Cost $30.00 M) Component 3: Strengthening of Capacity Building and Project Management:(Cost $11.79 M) Overall Ratings Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO Moderately Satisfactory Moderately Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Moderately Unsatisfactory Moderately Unsatisfactory Overall Risk Rating Substantial Substantial Implementation Status and Key Decisions Progress towards achievement of the project development objective is rated "moderately satisfactory". Since the last support mission in June\July 2019, the overall implementation pace and project disbursements, while still behind schedule, have increased, thanks to the ongoing action plan to accelerate implementation agreed on during the previous support mission. Significantly more progress has been made in the activities aimed at 12/17/2019 Page 1 of 16 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report DRC - Agriculture Rehabilitation and Recovery Support (P092724) increasing the capacity of small-scale agricultural farmers to produce staple crops, perennial crops such as coffee and cocoa, and small stock including poultry and goats. The signing of pending subsidiary agreements with a series of implementing partners has allowed the launch of additional seed multiplication activities. Bottlenecks delaying implementation of the bulk of civil works designed to improve market infrastructure in the project areas have been resolved and some of the pending civil works have been launched. Other works are expected to be launched before the end of 2019. Maintenance of the selected 190 km of feeder roads is ongoing and slotted for completion in February 2020. Total project disbursements increased from US$19.90 million in June 30, 2019 to US$40.55 million in December 1, 2019. An additional US$8 million worth of activities and civil works is expected to be disbursed by the end of 2019. Overall, implementation progress (IP) remains behind schedule. The IP rating remains at "moderately unsatisfactory" due primarily to the significant delays in implementing key elements of component 2 (planned road rehabilitation and construction of marketing infrastructure (markets and storage facilities, bridges), as well as the PIREDD activities (mitigation of emissions from deforestation and forest degradation). In addition, the residual impact of the delayed project effectiveness on the overall implementation progress remains a key issue, given the time lost which would have allowed project implementation to be a lot more advanced at this stage. The project is scheduled to close on March 16, 2020. The Government has requested an extension of the project closing date to allow: (a) completion of ongoing, as well as outstanding activities expected to be launched before the end of 2019; and (b) enough time to achieve the expected project results/impact. The World Bank team confirms that the Project has not reported any accidents or occupational health and safety (OHS) incidents since the launch of project activities. The project is scheduled to close on March 16, 2020. The Government has requested an extension of the project closing date to allow completion of ongoing and outstanding activities activities expected to be launched before the end of 2019, and enough time to achieve the expected project results/impact. The next support mission is scheduled to take place in the first two weeks of January 2020. All project restructuring details including the project extension of the closing date will be finalized during the mission. 12/17/2019 Page 2 of 16 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report DRC - Agriculture Rehabilitation and Recovery Support (P092724) 12/17/2019 Page 3 of 16 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report DRC - Agriculture Rehabilitation and Recovery Support (P092724) 12/17/2019 Page 4 of 16 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report DRC - Agriculture Rehabilitation and Recovery Support (P092724) 12/17/2019 Page 5 of 16 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report DRC - Agriculture Rehabilitation and Recovery Support (P092724) 12/17/2019 Page 6 of 16 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report DRC - Agriculture Rehabilitation and Recovery Support (P092724) 12/17/2019 Page 7 of 16 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report DRC - Agriculture Rehabilitation and Recovery Support (P092724) 12/17/2019 Page 8 of 16 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report DRC - Agriculture Rehabilitation and Recovery Support (P092724) 12/17/2019 Page 9 of 16 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report DRC - Agriculture Rehabilitation and Recovery Support (P092724) Risks Systematic Operations Risk-rating Tool Risk Category Rating at Approval Previous Rating Current Rating Political and Governance -- High High Macroeconomic -- Substantial Substantial Sector Strategies and Policies -- Moderate Moderate Technical Design of Project or Program -- Moderate Moderate Institutional Capacity for Implementation and Sustainability -- Moderate Moderate Fiduciary -- Substantial Substantial 12/17/2019 Page 10 of 16 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report DRC - Agriculture Rehabilitation and Recovery Support (P092724) Environment and Social -- Substantial Substantial Stakeholders -- Low Low Other -- -- -- Overall -- Substantial Substantial Results PDO Indicators by Objectives / Outcomes Increased capacity of small holder farmers to produce selected staple crops and small stock.
