Fiscal and institutional constraints, and most recently health contingency measures adopted by national and provincial governments to avoid the spread of COVID-19, have affected implementation. Through specific time-bound action plans steps are being taken to accelerate the pace of implementation. The Project is implementing activities in all 3 active components: Component 1 (Strengthening agro-climatic information systems), 2 (Agricultural risk mitigation investments) and 3 (Agricultural Emergency Response Financing and Transfer of Agroclimatic Risks). Under component 1 the integration o f meteorological stations and the first acquisitions of equipment to participating institutions (INTA, CONAE, SMN) is taking place. Under component 2, sixteen provinces have an approved Provincial Plan for Integrated Agricultural Risk Management (PARMP). 1/21/2022 Page 1 of 7 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Integrated Risk Management in the Rural Agroindustrial System (P162316) Six investment subprojects are approved to go into the bidding stage.
