IN AREAS PREVIOUSLY CONVERTED TO AGRICULTURAL USE (P143184) A mid-term review of the project implementation progress was carried out in January 2017. The Ministry of Agriculture (MAPA) reconfirmed the relevance of the project as an important instrument to achieve ABC Plan targets and climate mitigation commitments. Incorporating the recommendations and lessons learned from the review, SENAR elaborated an Action Plan redesigning the recruitment of training participants and the impact evaluation strategies. The next supervision mission is scheduled for July 2017. 4/13/2017 Page 2 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report SUSTAINABLE PROD.

However, as this is a results indicator, we will wait until activities conclude in the farms to verify the percentage increase.

The current result takes into account solely the number of producers who registered AND finalized successfully the training courses. Same applies for female beneficiaries. The final target of direct project beneficiaries will be revised during restructuring. 4/13/2017 Page 4 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report SUSTAINABLE PROD.

However, although no targets were established, it was agreed to monitor GHG emissions during project implementation. This indicator will be measured after the data collection for treatment and control groups is finalized in years 4 and 5. 4/13/2017 Page 6 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report SUSTAINABLE PROD.
