The Project is making overall good progress towards its implementation targets and is being implemented well. In September 2018 an Additional Financing (AF) became effective and the project is making steady progress towards new targets set forward by the AF. Some of the key results of the project are: a) To date, the project has supported 5,087 farmers (73% of the target) to adopt new technologies to make their farms more climate smart, including irrigation systems, improved effluent management, improved use of water and shade for cattle, among others. b) The project has trained over 6,880 people in the projects objectives, including over 5,000 men and over 1,800 women. c) The project has introduced new and/or improved sustainable landscape management practices onto over 2.4M ha of land in Uruguay, or 14 percent of the total land area of Uruguay. d) The Climate Information Decision Support System or SNIA for its Spanish acronym is functioning and helping to support decisions in the public sector. To date it has supported 9 important public-sector decisions. It has also seen a total of over 60,000 uses today, with steadily increasing usage. e) The project is piloting new technology to trace the application of pesticides on-farm. It currently has 30 systems operational, each tracking the application of pesticides in real-time. This pilot is done in coordination with the SNIA system platform. f) The project opened a large call for proposals called "More Water for Production" to support farmers in on-farm investments in water infrastructure for agriculture. The call for proposals was met with demand from 95 organizations comprising over 3,700 beneficiaries and are currently being evaluated. The Project continues to be in compliance with its fiduciary and safeguards obligations. The next implementation support mission will take place in November, 2019.
