PROJECT STATUS AND RATIONALE FOR RESTRUCTURING A. BACKGROUND The project became effective on April 23, 2013 with a total cost of USD 85.70 million, including the Bank’s share of USD 60.0 million (70%). The project is primarily delivering technical support to deliver science-based knowledge and innovation to watershed programs in Karnataka. The project is being implemented through a consortium of 13 primary partner institutions who are exceptionally good in their respective field of study. The project was originally conceived and sanctioned for implementation in seven (7) dry, rainfed agriculture districts in Karnataka at a cost of Rs.471 crores (85.7 million USD). Subsequently, four (4) districts featuring significant CGIAR supported activities with farmers were added: Tumkur, Chikkamagalore, Raichur and Vijayapura. The Watershed Development Department (WDD) is the lead implementing agency. The Department of Horticulture (DoH) is implementing the horticulture work in the project. The project had a very slow start due to a new senior counterpart team being put in place after effectiveness, who needed time to become familiar with Bank projects and procedures, and to buy into a project design that focused on technical support rather than physical investments. Procurement of implementing partners took almost one year, followed by time to accommodate necessary capacity and institutional building. Implementation has picked up considerably in the past year, aided by a new counterpart team coming on board in September, 2016. The project has gained good momentum, demonstrated successes in some activities, and has won two awards in the past year for work related to applications of comprehensive data bases for improved watershed planning and helping farmer make better decisions about crop selection and crop management. While project implementation appears to have turned around, given the short time to closure (December 2018), a minor restructuring is needed to further rationalize activities, reallocate funds from slow moving activities to those that should be scale up, and revise various monitoring indicators to reflect changes in project direction and scope. B. KEY ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE PROJECT 1. Implementing partners. All 13 implementing partners are on board and have gained solid experience in delivering required inputs. These include the National Bureau of Soil Survey and Land-Use Planning (NBSS&LUP) as a lead partner with five State Agricultural Universities and one Veterinary, Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Universities; the Indian Institute of Sciences (IISc), International Crops Research Institute for Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT), Bangalore University, Indian Institute of Soil and Water Conservation (IISWC) in Bellary, Karnataka State Remote Sensing and Application Centre (KSRSAC) and the Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Center (KSNDMC). One of the benefits of this implementation approach has been that for the first time in Karnataka, these diverse technical partners have been integrated into a cohesive consortium focusing on key science-based innovations related to watershed management. 2. Land Resource Inventory (LRI). The Land Resource Inventory (LRI) work is demonstrating at a reasonable scale, an innovative approach for collecting intensive biophysical and socio-economic data on watersheds and applying this information to: a) develop more comprehensive, science based watershed plans; and b) provide this information to help farmers make better decisions about crop selection and crop management. Progress has picked up significantly in the past year. The matching of LRI work with subsequent development of integrated watershed management plans The World Bank Karnataka Watershed Development II (P122486) and crop suitability maps has been largely completed in 541 micro watersheds (MWSs) out of 698 (78 percent achievement) from the initial phase I target sites; work is nearing completion on the remaining 157 sites. The LRI work is providing farmers with useful and timely scientific information on crop suitability, soil and water management, fertilizer applications, etc., through upgraded Farmer Contact Centers (RSK’s) in local communities as well as by on- site extension work. An innovative Android-based application has been developed to record and send socio-economic data directly to university partner servers. The LRI work is unique in India and is being taken up by all nine states in another Bank-supported watershed project in India (Neeranchal). An unforeseen and positive benefit is the growing demand by other state government agencies in Karnataka to use the LRI data to support their own integrated planning in centrally sponsored schemes; such as the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MNREGA) and Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana (PMKSY) operations. This is a very positive outcome which reinforces the view that the LRI work needs to be scaled up. To facilitate more efficient dissemination and application of the LRI data at various levels and for a range of purposes, the project is now developing a comprehensive integrated data base (Digital Library), web-based portal (Geo-Portal), and decision support systems (DSS) tools for specific applications around watershed management and agriculture. 3. Applied Research and Development. Since project effectiveness, seven research proposals, focused on key issues related to water and agriculture improvement, have been started by local universities and ICRISAT with a goal of improving agricultural performance in project areas and having the results shared widely across the state. These studies will all be completed by project closure. The project is also piloting the development of simple hydrological monitoring systems to improve the hydrological data available for watershed planning and help farmers make better crop selection and crop management decisions. Based on these pilots, hydrological assessments are now fully integrated into the LRI process. In addition, 179 weather stations/telemetric weather stations have been installed in project micro-watersheds and gathering of weather data is in progress. Weather advisories based on these data are being disseminated by mobile phones to farmers. This work is complementing the state-wide system being rolled out by the KSNDMC. For the past year, groundwater levels have been monitored in 150 wells in Chamarajanagara district to demonstrate the benefits having improved groundwater information available for watershed planning at the community level. Soil moisture maps have been developed and validated with field measurements. In addition, more intensive hydrological assessment work is taking place in 14 demonstration micro-watersheds to determine the incremental value and cost/benefit of data from these more comprehensive systems to planners and farmers. 4. Demonstration watersheds. The original project design focused on linking improved science-based watershed plans, drawing on LRI data (for example on soils, hydrology, soil fertility, land use, land cover, topography, etc.) from selected watersheds in eleven districts, with follow-on physical investments from the national IWMP. As the project progressed however, the migration of IWMP into the new national PMKSY scheme in 2014-2015 made this direct linkage difficult, because of uncertainty of timing of these follow-on investments. This shift in IWMP resulted in two decisions being made. First, it was agreed during the Mid-Term Review in May, 2016 that the LRI work should be scaled up to broaden the scope of this work based on the feedback of farmers, watershed planners, and other senior government officials. Second, WDD would select a small number of demonstration sites where the project would finance follow-on watershed management physical investments, along with close monitoring of impacts that could be determined by project closure in December 2018. The investments would also demonstrate the value of treating 100 percent of the soil and water conservation interventions identified in the watershed plan rather than the typical 30 percent that IWMP/PMKSY budgets normally allowed for. The advance LRI work and detailed treatment plans for three sub- watersheds have been completed. Work has been initiated on a fourth site. Further scaling up of these demonstration sites was agreed to be a useful initiative. 5. Capacity building. The capacity building activities have targeted a wide range of project stakeholders. A comprehensive training and capacity building plan has been prepared, which is grouped into 29 categories with 3,880 The World Bank Karnataka Watershed Development II (P122486) batches/events for the project period. Implementation of the training plan is occurring. Highlights include the completion of digitized LRI Atlases containing site-specific information at the micro-watershed and cadastral level; these have been provided to all Farmer Contact Centers in project districts for dissemination of this information to farmers. Additional RSK staff have been recruited and trained. The project is also supporting installation of digital technology in these RSKs to allow for more effective sharing of this information at the specific farm site level. All University partners have received extensive training in LRI methodology and upgraded their geo-spatial and soil testing labs. A field manual has been prepared to support LRI work both in Karnataka and in other states interested in adopting this practice. Staff from the nine Neeranchal watershed project states have visited Bangalore to learn about the LRI process and linkages are now being developed to support longer-term training programs. These are good examples of how the knowledge and innovation in the Karnataka project is being disseminated to other states and programs. 6. Horticulture. The horticulture component was designed to demonstrate innovations that could not be readily tested in regular government sponsored schemes. The component has been training farmers in new methods to improve productivity, demonstrating how to grow more sustainable horticulture crops (perennial and annual crops), developed horticulture nutrition kits, and piloted new community-based approaches for forming Farmer Interest Groups (FIGs) and Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs). Overall, while this work had a very slow start, 47 percent of the targets as specified in the 2015 restructuring have been achieved and are on track to be completed by the end of the project. A major success has been the formation of FIGs under improved approaches, with 100 percent achievement against targets. One soil and leaf analysis laboratory is being built in Koppal. A recent baseline survey has provided recommendations on small-scale post-harvest infrastructure that could help increase shelf-life and improve the quality of horticultural produce at farm, FIG and FPO levels. This information is now guiding larger horticulture programs in the state. In addition, distribution of post-harvest infrastructure is being undertaken through the FPOs, based on crop specific requirements in all 11 project districts. The project is also demonstrating more robust processes to develop supply chain business plans for at least one horticulture crop in each of the 11 project districts. Basic Geographic Information System (GIS) equipment and software is being established at the Department of Horticulture, to help integrate horticulture activities with WDD-related activities, and for planning and monitoring horticulture programs throughout the state. 7. Monitoring and evaluation. A monitoring cell has been established to periodically review, monitor and suggest improvements to project implementation. A specialized agency, the Indian Institute of Soil and Water Conservation (IISWC) has been on board since March 2016, for technical monitoring and evaluation, especially to monitor the efficiency and usefulness of scientific tools developed in the project. The World Bank Karnataka Watershed Development II (P122486) 8. Disbursements. Project disbursements are now at USD 15.36 million or 28 percent of the IDA Credit., which is on track with estimates made in the May, 2017 mission. Forecasts of cumulative disbursements to end of June, 2018 range from 50 to 70 percent of the IDA Credit. The proposed, minor restructuring will support improved disbursements. Rationale for Restructuring: The mission in May, 2017 undertook a detailed evaluation of the project. At that time, given the slow and bumpy implementation of the project in the first three years, and the fact that the project closes in December 2018, it was very clear that the project should scale up activities that were demonstrating positive results towards the desired project outcomes, and reduce activities that have not started, cannot be completed on time, or are making slow progress. II. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED CHANGES A. OVERALL PROJECT OBJECTIVES AND STRUCTURE The Project Development Objective (PDO) is to demonstrate more effective watershed management through greater integration of programs related to rainfed agriculture, innovative and science based approaches, and strengthened institutions and capacities. The PDO remains valid and is unchanged. Project activities continue to support the demonstration of more effective watershed development through improved site data to inform more comprehensive, integrated watershed plans which will generate better conservation outcomes. The LRI data and farmer contact centers are guiding farmers to make more informed decisions on crop selection and crop management in rainfed areas, which will contribute to improved yields and income. Government agencies delivering the integrated PMKSY scheme in Karnataka (including the watershed component) are now request this LRI information to support their own program planning. Nine states in the Neeranchal watershed project are now initiating LRI work based on the Karnataka experience. Horticulture activities are demonstrating how new knowledge and science-based practices can support improved productivity and inform larger schemes in the state. Research and development activities will provide relevant knowledge to help farmers generate higher yields and income throughout the state. The project will continue to build strong institutions and capacities in WDD and DoH to deliver more effective, integrated programs, particularly in the 13 implementation partners who represent a strong consortium of science and technology related to watershed management. The component structure was found to still be relevant for achieving the PDO. The main changes from the current restructuring are: (a) to drop two activities, (b) expand the scope and/or direction of some ongoing activities, and (c) revise the project monitoring indicators to better reflect changes in the scope and direction of the project, while also accounting for the short period before project closure. Two draft legal amendment letters referring to the proposed changes in the Financing Agreement and Project Agreement have been prepared and will be issued as part of the restructuring exercise. B. TWO MAIN ACTIVITIES PROPOSED TO BE DROPPED A project restructuring exercise was undertaken in May 2015 to recalibrate costs and activities based on performance to date and experience gained in the field following effectiveness. The main changes approved in this restructuring were: The World Bank Karnataka Watershed Development II (P122486) 1. A slight decrease in the number of micro-watersheds in Phases I and II under the project to 931 (from 935); 2. Extending project areas to include four additional districts for convergence with a new Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) operation in the state that is focusing on agricultural support for farmers; 3. Minor re-allocation of budgets among components to account for changes in unit costs, scale of selected activities, and minor exchange rate fluctuations since appraisal; and 4. Inclusion of three new, agreed activities that support the PDO: i. One peri-urban watershed management pilot, in a small urban area with a mix of agriculture and non-agriculture land uses, and denser populations than in rural areas, where water quality and/or water supply is a growing problem. The pilot work would be implemented in two phases. The first phase would demonstrate a process to develop an integrated catchment plan using a structured, multi-stakeholder driven approach, supported by appropriate data bases, hydrological assessment and modeling. Depending on the time remaining in the project, the second phase would finance catchment management interventions in the plan and initiate monitoring of incremental changes in water supply/quality in the urban area; ii. Demonstrations of improved rainwater and surface water harvesting to support high value cash crops grown under poly-houses in low rainfall areas. These demonstrations would be oriented towards larger farmers and serve to attract additional farmers to adopt similar technology that could be financed through existing state schemes; iii. Demonstration of biophysical and economic impacts from full treatment coverage in selected micro-watersheds. Currently, IWMP provides INR 12,000 per ha for the full suite of activities in each micro-watershed in the state, including participatory planning, minor civil works for soil and water conservation, livelihood support, monitoring and evaluation, and administration. The project would support demonstrations in selected sites where financing would be provided to allow full coverage of soil and water conservation works as identified in micro-watershed plans. The key impacts from this approach would be compared with current IWMP practices to determine the incremental economic and biophysical benefits of increasing coverage of treatments. The current restructuring proposes to drop two of those newly added activities which are: (i) demonstration of urban watershed management, and (ii) pilot work on poly-houses and rainwater storage. The reasons for dropping these activities are: 5. Demonstration of urban watershed management: The work has yet to begin and there is now insufficient time remaining in the project to complete the work and measure resulting impacts. The small amount of funds originally allocated to the activity can be re-allocated elsewhere in the project (LRI, demonstration watersheds) where they can be fully disbursed. 6. Pilot work on poly houses and rainwater storage. The Department of Horticulture (DoH) has demonstrated some useful initial results at a small scale. However, the recent emergence and scaling up of a large government-financed program to provide this infrastructure to farmers means there is no longer a need for the project to continue with the activity. The funds can be re-allocated elsewhere in the project to LRI and demonstration watersheds. C. KEY ACTIVITIES PROPOSED TO BE SUSTAINED/REVISED/SCALED UP AND RATIONALE 1. Land Resource Inventory. Under the proposed restructuring, the LRI program would scale up to cover 1,931 micro-watersheds. As part of this scaling up, the WDD and implementing partners will focus LRI work to capture The World Bank Karnataka Watershed Development II (P122486) all areas at the Taluk level in all 11 Districts. This scaled up work will also continue to guide similar work in the Bank-supported Neeranchal National Watershed Project in nine other states. This proposal will scale up an emerging success story and increase the impacts through development of more integrated, science-based watershed plans, providing information to farmers to guide better crop selection and crop management, and provide watershed plans and data to agencies implementing PMKSY and other government schemes in project districts. 2. Data base, web portal and Decision Support System (DSS) tools. This work will support easier dissemination and application of the LRI data. Under the proposed restructuring, the Karnataka State Data Centre (KSDC) will be the project implementing partner to host the resulting web portal. The KSRSAC will be the lead implementing partner for managing and maintaining the system. A new technical advisory committee will be constituted, made up of highly qualified information technology experts to provide quality assurance, and technical oversight. This proposed implementation approach will ensure sustainability of a highly innovative activity with far-reaching benefits to many stakeholders, and replicability in other projects. 3. Demonstration model watershed sites. The proposed restructuring will finance five additional demonstration sites and measure relevant impacts of integrating up front technical and scientific inputs with follow-on soil and water conservation investments, covering 100 percent of the interventions from the watershed plan. This will add to ongoing work in three demonstration sub-watersheds now underway and a fourth site that is just getting started. There will be a strong focus on monitoring across all nine sites to tell the story of the value of LRI and integrated watershed management approaches. 4. Focused horticulture development activities. The widespread demonstration work being implemented under the horticulture component will continue until completed, for example, forming more community based FIGs, FPOs, etc., and demonstrating the value of improved post-harvest practices. The proposed restructuring will channel remaining funds around three new demonstration priorities: (i) Horticulture post-harvest management – working with FPOs to improve management of selected products; (ii) Value chain development in horticulture – focus on business planning for two key products to take them from seed to market, taking into account information from LRI and indigenous knowledge; and (iii) Linking with the expanding “E-market” system in the state and demonstration sub-watersheds. These new areas for demonstrations will generate useful lessons for the state’s larger horticulture programs. 5. Results framework indicators. The shift in watershed management from IWMP to PMKSY (alluded to earlier) has hampered the original goal of linking project technical inputs with follow-on investments from government programs and then measuring impacts on crop productivity, among other impacts. Also, the very slow implementation of the project in the first 2-3 years has meant that some of the expected benefits in new, demonstration sites around improved yields and income cannot be measured by project closure. Many of the original indicators are no longer relevant. The proposed restructuring will modify the Results Framework to focus more on Indicators linked to the creation and adoption of knowledge and innovative practices by farmers, other agencies, etc., based on the many science and technology outputs being generated. The proposals reflect changes The World Bank Karnataka Watershed Development II (P122486) in the Results Framework agreed in principle during the Mid-Term Review. A separate paper is attached to provide more details on changes to the Results Framework indicators. 6. Project management. A problem in the past has been the de-facto separation of Component 4 (Horticulture) into a mini-project. This has meant that instead of one, integrated project with a unified chain of management and reporting, both WDD and DoH were producing separate status reports, submitting separate IUFRs, separate procurement plans and procurement requests, etc. The proposed restructuring firmly sets the Commissioner – WDD as the Project Director for all components, including Component 4 (Horticulture) for project management and reporting. The PPMU, chaired by the Agriculture Secretary, would continue as the higher level management body and would meet monthly.
