Coordination Processes with Districts on Delivery of EDPRS 2
4
Organized PSTA III Local Government Consultations (Feb, 2013). PSTA III is linked to EDPRS II and DDPs. Organized National Local Government and Central Government planning consultations (October, 2013). It happens every FY and coordinated by LODA . Provincial planning consultations (Every FY and coordinated through LODA)Participation in the preparation of Imihigo (Every FY and coordinated through LODA ). RAB zones for follow up and close collaboration with Districts (Seasonal preparations vs Extension services ).
Sector Issues
Low inputs use vs. productivity potential
Limited access to finance Lack of professionalization of
farmers across the value chain Postharvest handling, storage,
drying, processing and marketing
5
Sector Issues: Irrigation
High cost of development of hillside irrigation due to :- Most of equipments and spares parts are imported- Lack of local companies specialized in irrigation domain- Most of available lands are not generally flat which has implication on
pumping cost High cost of operation and maintenance of hillside irrigation
schemes by farmers due to : - High cost of electricity for pumping;- Lack of irrigation culture within communities and poor water use efficiency;- Undeveloped and inefficient marketing chain, - Unclear involvement of the local authorities in the management of
irrigation schemes, Land distribution and land tenure
- Hillside irrigation schemes are developed on private land- Highly fragmented private ownership of the land which hampers
consolidation- Cost of Resettlement/expropriation is relatively high
6
Status of Presidential Pledges
Liming in south-western highlands: domestic funded project to start next Fiscal Year
Special agriculture programme for the following Districts:
Nyaruguru (increase agriculture and livestock productivity)
Nyamagabe (increase agriculture and livestock productivity)
Ngororero (increase agriculture and livestock productivity)
Gakenke (increase agriculture and livestock productivity and
promotion of export crops, especially coffee )
Feeder roads programme to cover all districts, starting with
Rubavu, Ngororero, Rulindo, Bugesera, Ngoma, Muhanga
and Huye 7
Status of Presidential Pledges: Lime Subsidy
8
The pledge was made in February 2013 on request by Nyaruguru farmers and leaders
A pilot phase of lime supply to 6 Sectors of Nyaruguru District was done in season 2013B (1000 MT of lime supplied to farmers on 400 ha)
A 3-year project proposal was submitted to MINECOFIN to achieve the following: Support liming of 30,000 ha in 10 Districts (FY14/15-16/17) in three
phases Government contribution is 3.2 billion (50% subsidy) Potential project impact: productivity increase by 4 to 5-fold for Irish
Potato, 3 to 4-fold for wheat when combined with manure & mineral fertilizers
Project partners: Districts, cooperatives, lime miners & agro-dealers, NGos, Projects, etc.
Plan to support 4000 ha in season B2015 if funds available Total area covered by acidic soils in 10 Districts is about 213,446ha,
which requires about 1,275,848 tons of lime (there is enough lime deposits in the country)
9
Sector Priorities for 2015-2016
Irrigation: continued infrastructure development & efficient management of existing schemes
Inputs use to increase agriculture productivity (seeds, fertilizers, manure and lime)
Land husbandry (radical and progressive terraces) Mechanisation of farm operations Enhanced research and proximity extension services Postharvest and output marketing for both crop and livestock
produces Livestock development including: dairy and meat value
chains, animal nutrition, poultry and fisheries intensification, Girinka, and small animals development

14
Activities to deliver the targets
1. Ensure timely supply of inputs (Seed and fertilizer to all farmers in 16A, B and C
2. Mobilize farmers for season preparation to ensure access to inputs, finance and insurance, validation of Agri. season plan, build capacity of extension agents, train farmers on good agriculture practices,
3. Monitor season implementation (Particularly the distribution and use of agri. Inputs + LUC )
Inputs - seeds distribution and fertilizer reforms How are seasons planned- are there any gaps in
coordination across all the key stakeholders?
A. Setting of targets for CIP- MINAGRI compares previous seasons fertilizer /seeds distribution
and use per district as the basis for establishing targets. In this case (2014A,B/C) were used as baseline;
- The targets are communicated to districts for inclusion into their implementation plans;
- The targets are validated with districts and are incorporated in annual performance contracts (Imihigo);
B. Season Planning- Season Planning meetings with CIP stakeholders (MINAGRI,
MINALOC, Districts)- Input access and use road map implementation meetings at district
level (Mayor, V/Mayor FED, SE, AGRONOMES, importers and agro dealers)
15
Inputs - seeds distribution and fertilizer reforms…
Lessons learned and next steps- Agreed targets often do not feature in Imihigo- Input access and use road map sometimes not implemented:
limited mobilization and communication of input reforms to farmers, e.g., - use of subsidized fertilizers on 7 crops from the previous 4;- Inadequate mobilization of farmers into TWIGIRE and referral with
required farmer lists to agro dealers to purchase inputs.
- There is no a joint review of Imihigo before they are signed.- Period reporting of progress on implementation of activities agreed
in plans
New Fertilizer reforms- MINAGRI promote diverse fertilizer products to address nutrient
deficiencies found in a recent soil survey;- Demonstrations of new fertilizers shall be conducted country wide,
coordinated by RAB. Districts shall monitor and report on progress of trials
- Fertilizer subsidies shall extend to more crops (to be confirmed) 16
Export crop: Productivity improvement
Product Key Challenge / Constraint
Opportunity for Unlocking Export Growth – show evidence

Food Reserves
2015/16 Disaggregated Targets for Districts
19
See Annex in Excel Sheet
Way forward1. Agriculture and Livestock productivity
Mobilization for input use (seeds, fertilizers and mechanization)
Prioritize Twigire extension model
2. Export
Give importance to export commodities
Recruit export officers as found in the new district structure
Mobilize farmers to plant export crops
Enhance the productivity of export crops through better crop management
Support some of the big project like the tea expansion program
Maintenance of existing plantations
Identification on time area for plantations
Earmark land for commercial fruits development and fruits consolidation
Earmark land for commercial production of vegetables and vegetable consolidation 20
Way forward...
3. PHH&S infrastructures Education and change of farmers – it needs more efforts from
District Agronomist to build strong and sustainable farmer’s cooperatives,
Delay at District level to tendering drying grounds
4. Irrigation Create a national irrigation development fund/portfolio Increase national target for SSIT development (from 2000Ha to
5000Ha) Operationalize contract farming models Preparation of irrigation transfer agreement with Districts
5. Earmarked transfer
LODA should respect the guidelines as given by MINAGRI
Districts should report regularly on the use of earmarked transfers 21
