For most of the Result Framework’s indicators, including key outcomes, final targets are already attained or about to be – results confirmed by the recently concluded Matching Grant Program (MGP) Impact Assessment and the Market Survey. The MGP impact assessment also shows that for some indicators (average fruits & vegetable (F&V) yields of MGP participants, calving rates, etc.) the achievements from project beneficiaries are significantly higher than for the control group, allowing these results to be at least partly attributed to project’s interventions. The MAF poultry and piggery units and Crops Division (CD) new office have been completed while the tissue culture laboratory will be handed over by the end of April. Good progress has been made with training and capacity building activities in the livestock sector, as per the 12th ISM recommendation. Two outstanding issues are: (i) the need to accelerate the procurement and delivery of the Static Slaughtering Unit (SSU), and (ii) complete and close the Matching Grant Program by the agreed date of June 30, 2018.
