The mission was informed that the TA agreement between RAB and FAO was signed the first tranche of funds transferred to FAO. We were also informed that a Lead Technical Officer was appointed by FAO to manage the TA while they were actively engaged in the process of hiring a local Project Coordinator, international and local experts to implement the TA services. The project has also an active partnership with the Rwanda Youth in Agribusiness Forum (RYAF) to provide community-based extension services, capacity building and coaching on O&M of irrigated schemes and strengthen market linkages. Additionally, after the last ISM in June 2019, the number of produce buyers and off-takers linked to beneficiary cooperatives and groups has grown from 14 to 22 companies. The mission was also pleased to note that the project was advanced in introducing innovations in the project, including greenhouse agriculture and mechanization pilots which are planned to start soon in selected project sites.

Technical assistance will introduce good agricultural practices adjusted to each situation. These are, among other, the use of organic fertilizer, certified seeds, diversification and shifting cultivation and will be identified during project implementation. The indicator Comments: evaluates if at least one good agricultural practice transferred during technical assistance is being adopted by the farmer. Municipal staff using their site visits will evaluate use of agricultural practices or improved agricultural technology. One year after the completion of the first systems, an independent evaluation will confirm monitoring results of the municipal staff. If needed, an additional independent evaluation will be realized during mid-term review.
