The objective of the Revitalizing the Sudan Gum Arabic Production and Marketing Project for Sudan is to help increase the income of small-scale gum Arabic producers in selected areas of the recipient's gum Arabic belt through improved performance of gum Arabic production and marketing system. Project's extension was contingent upon the approval of the extension of the parent Multi Donor Trust Fund-North Sudan, or MDTF-NS which has now established a new closing date of December 31, 2013 to enable it fully disburse. This 6-month extension of closing date for the Gum Arabic Project (GAP) will overlap with International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD's) co-financing which continues to December 2013. The IFAD support through the co-financing arrangement is expected to be available during the second phase of the project1 and most of it will be used for Gum Arabic Producer Association (GAPA)-related interventions. Implementation of phase two of the project was contingent to the effective implementation of the sector reform and opening up the sector to free and transparent marketing arrangement. The current disbursement percentage is US$6.36 million or 91 percent of the US$7 million MDTFNS grant. The remaining undisbursed resources are estimated at US$0.64 million from MDTF and US$3 million from IFAD resources which has been allocated to finance the second phase of the project.
