EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Project

National Agricultural Technology Project (NATP), a five year project in the Phase-1 with the

financial support of the World Bank and IFAD was approved on February 07, 2008 and

became effective from March 25, 2008.The NATP comprises four major components: (i)

agricultural research support; (ii) agricultural extension support; (iii) development of supply

chains; and (iv) project management and coordination.The project is launched to increase

agricultural production, productivity and income of farmers. It is a long term development

program with funding support from Government of Bangladesh, World Bank and IFAD for a

period of 15 years in three phases.The project support comprises 4 (four) components

implemented by 7 (seven) implementing units. The components are: (i) agricultural research

support, (ii) agricultural extension support, (iii) development of supply chains and (iv) project

management and coordination. The implementing units includes: Bangladesh Agricultural

Research Council (BARC), KrishiGobeshona Foundation (KGF), Department of Agricultural

Extension (DAE), Department of Livestock Services (DLS), Department of Fisheries (DoF),

Hortex Foundation (Hortex) and Project Coordination Unit (PCU). The research component

is being implemented nationwide, whereas the extension component is being implemented in

120 upazilas. The supply chain development component is being implemented in 20

upazilas.PCU is looking after the overall coordination and management of the project

implementation under the guidance of PSC and PMC.However, the project implementation

started on October, 2008. NARS institutes and public universities participated in research

activities under PIU-BARC and NARS, universities, NGOs and private organizations (POs)

also participated in research activities under KGF. Extension activities were implemented by

DAE, DLS and DoF while the supply chain activities by Hortex Foundation. The project is

implemented in 120 upazilas of 25 districts. The Project Coordination Unit (PCU)

coordinated activities of the components and acted under the guidance of the Project Steering

Committee (PSC).

The overall objective of the longer term program (NATP in three phases over 15 years) is to

support GOB's strategy to improve national agricultural productivity and farm income, with

particular focus on marginal and small farmers. The development objective of the phase-I of

Page 11: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

the NATP is to improve effectiveness of the national agricultural technology system in

Bangladesh.

The Evaluation

The IMED has entrusted the evaluation of NATP Phase 1 to the BIDS. The ToR includes 11

objectives for detailed evaluation. Part of the ToR relates to the process of the project

including procurement, part on processes in the field (technology generation, CIG formation

etc) and the rest on output (such as productivity increases) and outcomes (better income and

expenditure capacity). Part of the methodology thus related to examination and analysis of

secondary data to be obtained from various institutions involved in project implementation.

The rest of the methodology involved generation data from the field based on quantitative

and qualitative methods. A sample of 300 CIG and 150 control farmers were chosen for the

purpose and an extensive questionnaire was used for the survey. In addition, first hand

qualitative data were generated using FGDs among farmers, extensive consultation with

officials both in the field and the headquarters of the organisations involved.

An Inception Report was submitted and later revised based on comments received. The

present report is following the revised Inception Report that had been approved earlier by the

IMED.

Research Component

From the detailed analysis of SPGR and KGF-based research (see Chapter 2), one can

conclude that the research effort had been quite successful as they go, with better

achievements in some fields compared to others. However, it appears that most studies have

had limited goals and their general applicability in terms of technology developed remain to

be further investigated. Secondly, the difference in the two strands of research is not always

obvious. SPGR should have broad based goals while KGF-sponsored research may be more

focused which these generally are. A third issue that came up but not specifically probed was

the long time needed in proposal submission, verification, award, grant release seem to be

rather long while the actual research time may be comparably short for understanding the

sustainability of the technology developed or tested.

Procurement

There had been substantial procurement under the project made by the constituent

organisations. While one finds that goods and works have been procured, albeit with some

delays in the initial years, this has picked up well in later years. But for services there still

remains some bottlenecks for which these have lagged somewhat. The other issue was the

transparency and whether government and development partners’ guidelines for procurement

were followed. Available information on these are still sketchy. For example while one gets

information on planned and actual packages procured and money spent, there is hardly any

easily available information on number of bids, their shortlisting based on technical proposals

and proposed cost. The team observed package file and examined at random basis sample

procurements of different implementing units related to NATP. The team checked package

files and examined at random basis sample procurements of different implementing units of

NATP. On paper, there seems to adherence to guideline from development partner as evident

from World Bank’s no objection letters as well as to Govt. guidelines.

Farm Level Impacts

On the whole the team found that the NATP’s process of farmers group formation, its

functioning and technology dissemination process (through training, agricultural fair,

exhibition, advice services, etc.) may have worked quite well (for details see Chapter 3).

These resulted in higher productivity and return as farmers adopted better technology

particularly in case of rice but also in case of cash food crops. The NATP technology

recipient farmers produce more and earn higher profit compared to the control farmers. The

final outcome could be in terms of higher expenditure capacity although the food still

accounts for half of the total.

A Few Recommendations

Based on the analyses so far, the team recommends the following:

On research component:

a. Both SPGR and KGF sponsored research should be programme based for general

applicability, some progress has been made by focusing on hill and coastal ecosystem

which should be further carried forward

Page 13: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

ix

b. Because of nature of transformation from project to programme, multi-year, larger

research ideas should be developed

c. SPGR should concentrate more on research for broad-based applicability and may

have somewhat different perspectives than KGF’s CGP which is oriented more

towards applicability of existing technologies

d. The pre-award time of verification etc. may be reviewed for shortening the process.

On procurement and its transparency:

For monitoring purposes the team suggests that the format of reporting should have

information on number of bidders, the number of short-listed bids according to technical

merit ranking and their proposed costs and the final winner of the bid as well as the value of

the bid. There should be a column stating reasons of deviation from initial proposed costs as

well as reasons if the bid ranked first has not been chosen.

On nature and extent of impact at the farm level:

From what has been discussed and analysed, one sees a good case for replication of the

NATP experiences all over the country, although the exact element of a particular technology

may vary from place to place.

There are certain concerns regarding the lack of funds for additional works that the SAAOs

carry out under NATP. This is a very time-intensive project and activities under say FIAC

while these need to be further extended can not be done well with the limited allocations for

incidentals that are provided. The real issue is to make NATP experiences and output and

outcome sustainable when the project ends. It is towards that the NATP may need to be fine-

tuned. A much more extensive field level examination of processes and the barriers to the

smooth implementation need to be found out and addressed carefully.

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW

1.1 Background

According to the Sixth Five Year Plan of the Government (2011)1, the principal goal of

Bangladesh's economic policy is to reduce poverty so as to lift the vast majority of the people

above the poverty line and improve the quality of life for the average citizens. Although

considerable progress has been made in the fight against poverty, yet about 17.6 percent of

the people of Bangladesh lived below the lower poverty line in 2010 (BBS: 2010)2. Thus

Bangladesh has a long way to go to eliminate poverty. This requires high and inclusive

economic growth on a sustained basis and rapid growth of rural and agricultural economy.

Agriculture in Bangladesh is characterized by small farms and rice-dominated farming

system. The productivity of rice and other crops is low and there are large yield gaps between

farmers' fields and research trials. The same is true for other agricultural commodities such as

fisheries and livestock. Diversification of agricultural system to high value products is still

slow with limited post-harvest value addition. A three-pronged strategy with technology at

the core and requisite social mobilisation and prospects of higher economic return may help

transcend out of this morass. Reaching technologies to the farmers requires technology

generation and dissemination through the research and extension systems. Both research and

extension in Bangladesh remain largely in the public sector. Private investment in research

and extension is low. The NGOs, local governments, and community organizations are

coming up but very slowly. Therefore, the public sector must continue to play a leading role

in agricultural research and extension. This makes a strong case to strengthen the existing

research and extension institutions in terms of human resources, reorientation, redirecting,

and rationalizing and networking both nationally and internationally.

The National Agricultural Research System (NARS) is responsible for generating agricultural

related technologies and the Department of Agricultural Extension (DAE), Department of

Fisheries (DOF), and Department of Livestock Services (DLS) in the public sector are

responsible for extension of generated technology to the farmers. The Bangladesh

Agricultural Research Council (BARC) is the apex body for NARS. There are 10 research

institutes under the umbrella of NARS. These are: Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute

(BARI), Bangladesh Rice Research Institute (BRRI), Bangladesh Jute Research Institute

(BJRI), Bangladesh Sugarcane Research Institute (BSRI), Bangladesh Institute of Nuclear

Research Agriculture (BINA), Soil Resource Development Institute (SRDI), Bangladesh

Livestock Research Institute (BLRI), Bangladesh Fisheries Research Institute (BFRI),

Bangladesh Forest Research Institute (BFRI) and Bangladesh Tea Research Institute (BTRI).

The strengths and weaknesses of BARC, NARS and Extension Departments have been

assessed in the preparatory phase of the National Agricultural Technology Project (NATP). It

has recommended for improving accountability, objectivity and transparency in the

technology generation and dissemination, supply chain development and in the procurement

and financial management. Involvement of the private sector in technology dissemination and

development of supply chain has also been emphasized.

On the request of the government, the World Bank (WB) agreed to support a long term

development program over a period of 15 years in three phases, the first phase beginning in

July 2007. The IFAD, in the process of dialogue, agreed to co-finance the program with the

WB. The WB provided a loan of US$19.49 million. The development partners indicated that

the government should contribute US$ 2.6 million during the first phase. The WB funding in

the third phase will depend on the triggers set for the first and second phases respectively.

The Phase I of the project is under implementation in 120 upazila of the country.

About the Project

The Government of Bangladesh (GOB) is implementing the NATP with financial assistance

from the World Bank (through IDA credit) and International Fund for Agricultural

Development (IFAD). The program of NATP is to support GOB’s strategy to improve

national agricultural productivity and farm income, with a particular focus on marginal and

small farmers. The project intends to achieve the program objective through a phased

approach. The focus during the Phase-1 of the program, apart from introducing better

technologies related to agriculture, was on institutional development including amendment of

BARC Act and establishment of Krishi Gobeshona Foundation and decentralization of

planning and funding responsibility for demand-led extension micro-plans to the Upazila

level organizations. The project loan for NATP became effective on March 25, 2008.

The Project has seven Implementing Units: (i) Project Coordination Unit (PCU), Ministry of

Agriculture, (MOA) (ii) Project Implementation Unit (PIU), Bangladesh Agricultural

Research Council (BARC), (iii) Project Implementation Unit (PIU), Department of

Agriculture Extension (DAE), (iv) Project Implementation Unit (PIU), Department of

Fisheries (DOF), (v) Project Implementation Unit (PIU), Department of Livestock Services

(DLS) (vi) Krishi Gobeshona Foundation (KGF) and (vii) Hortex Foundation (Hortex).

The Project Coordination Unit (PCU) coordinates and facilitates implementation of NATP:

Phase-1 under the direction of a Project Steering Committee (PSC) and a Project

Management Committee (PMC). The Project Implementation Units in BARC, DAE, DOF,

DLS and implementing partners – KGF and Hortex are responsible for ensuring

implementation of project activities assigned to respective organizations.

The PCU, headed by a Project Director, has five National Coordinators – one responsible for

agricultural research, three responsible for extension (crops, fisheries and livestock) and one

for supply chain development. It also has experts in Administration, Financial Management,

Training and Communication, M&E, Social/Environmental aspects and two independent

members of Procurement Core Team (PCT) to support and develop capacity of implementing

agencies, as needed.

Project Components and Objectives

The NATP comprises four major components: (i) agricultural research support; (ii)

agricultural extension support; (iii) development of supply chains; and (iv) project

management and coordination.

The overall objective of the longer term program (NATP in three phases over 15 years) is to

support GOB's strategy to improve national agricultural productivity and farm income, with

particular focus on marginal and small farmers. The development objective of the phase-I of

the NATP is to improve effectiveness of the national agricultural technology system in

Bangladesh.

The project development objective was achieved by increasing efficiency and effectiveness

of the agricultural research and extension systems, and by strengthening farmer -market

linkages. More specifically, the national agricultural technology system would be enabled to

support:

-High priority, pluralistic, participatory and demand-led agricultural research;

-Decentralized, participatory, demand-led and knowledge-based approach for

agricultural extension;

Page 17: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

-Improved post-harvest technology and management practices for high value

agriculture by promoting farmer-market linkages as part of the development of

selected supply chains and

-Agreed reforms for the agricultural research and extension system, increased public

funding for the systems and promote effective use of such resources and promote

public private partnership in research extension and supply chain development.

1.2 Objectives of Present Evaluation of NATP-Phase I

Terms of Reference

The main purpose of the present evaluation is to assess and examine the effect and impact of

the project on the beneficiaries during its first phase. The overall objectives of the study

according to TOR are:

1. To review implementation status of major components/subcomponents of the project

as well as the present functional status of project activities in the sampled areas and

reasons for deviation, if any.

2. To examine if the project has been successful in improving research capacities and

effectiveness of National Agriculture Research System (NARS) for bridging the gap

between current and potential production in crops, fisheries and livestock sectors.

3. To examine if the Sponsored Public Goods Research (SPGR) had resulted in

generation of appropriate technologies in agriculture sector for marginal and landless

farmers for improving productivity, sustainability and product diversification.

4. To assess the relevance and usefulness of applied and adaptive research under

Competitive Grants Scheme (CGS) in generating better technologies for the

concerned sectors.

5. To examine the efficacy and effectiveness of the new extension services model vis-a

vis the existing ones and to find out whether the new model is participatory,

decentralized and based on felt needs of targeted beneficiaries,

6. To assess the nature and impact of development of supply chains for fruits,

vegetables, poultry and fish through the use of improved technologies and post-

harvest value additions in terms of productivity and healthy production.

Page 18: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

7. To assess how post-harvest technology and management practices for high value

agriculture helped promote improvement in farmer-market linkages.

8. To examine whether the procurement process (invitation of tenders, evaluation,

approval procedures, contract award etc) of the packages (goods, works and

services) under this project was followed as per PPR08/development partner's

procurement guidelines.

9. To assess the impact of project on increasing the productivity, livelihood security and

profitability in crops sector, livestock and inland aquaculture.

10. To identify the strengths and opportunities as well as weaknesses and external

threats that may affect functioning of the project activities.

11. To provide recommendations for more efficient and sustainable utilization of use of

agriculture research and extension system, public funding, PPP enterprises, post-

harvest technology and identification of best practices for replication in similar other

projects.

Clearly the evaluation has to be a multi-pronged multi-institutional analysis and be based on

different kinds of method for different objectives while the sources of data and information

may be of varied types. These are first discussed in generic terms and then objective by

objective.

1.3 Data and Method of Investigation

Steps in Impact Evaluation

The impact evaluation involves a number of steps such as:

a) Identification of activities, inputs and processes as well as their intended outputs

b) Choice of the methods of investigation

c) Choice of sample, as applicable

d) Questionnaire or checklist for activities, inputs, processes and outputs

e) Methodological Issues: Qualitative and Quantitative Methods

For each of the objectives, the issues involved and their analyses including the method of

information collection are described below.

Page 19: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

Evaluation of Objective 1

The first objective of the evaluation as stated earlier is

To review implementation status of major components/subcomponents of the project as well

as the present functional status of project activities in the sampled areas and reasons for

deviation, if any.

For meeting this objective the following method of investigation has been employed.

The NATP has 4 major components and 7 organisations are involved in carrying out the

tasks. Each organisation publishes its own report on status of implementation of its part of the

mandate. Furthermore, the NATP has very recently hired a group of Consultant firms to

independently evaluate these same programmes. Based on these, the present Consultant has

prepared an initial status report on the activities of the NATP as a whole. The Consultant then

has assessed where the deviations have taken place and tried to find out why. For this, the

Consultant has extensively interacted with the organisations and their coordinating team for

the NATP component under its jurisdiction to find out the reasons thereof. This has been

further validated with information from the NATP coordinating unit at the PD, NATP’s

office. One of the issues that has been carefully analysed is if there had been any duplication

of works and activities and whether the remaining work can be completed within the

extended time period for the phase 1 of the project.

Evaluation Objective 2

The second objective of the impact evaluation is

To examine if the project has been successful in improving research capacities and

effectiveness of National Agriculture Research System (NARS) for bridging the gap between

current and potential production in crops, fisheries and livestock sectors.

To properly understand the concerns here one needs to find out the support provided under

the Special Public Goods Research coordinated by BARC and the applied and adaptive

research sponsored under the KGF to the NARS system and what research have been carried

out and if these have tried to address the yield gaps in various sub-sectors of agriculture.

However as these two issues are also elaborately to be analysed under objectives 3 and 4, the

part of the assessment of fulfillment of objective 2 depends upon how far the objectives 3 and

4 have been achieved. Hence we do not discuss this any further (except as noted below).

Page 20: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

7

The NATP has provided support for creation of human skills and upgradation through formal

academic training and other manners. The Consultant has tried to find out what has happened

to the newly developed skills, particularly the assignments of the newly trained persons after

training.

There is another part of the objective which is to assess how far the reform programme of the

NARS has been going on and the nature of the intended reform. To the best of the

Consultant’s knowledge, a diagnostic report on the NARS has been prepared and

recommendations made for their resolution. The consultant is analysing the report for

understanding the policy implications of the recommendations.

Evaluation Objective 3

Objective 3 is

To examine if the Sponsored Public Goods Research (SPGR) had resulted in generation of

appropriate technologies in agriculture sector for marginal and landless farmers for

improving productivity, sustainability and product diversification.

To assess the implementation of the SPGR the Consultant has examined based on reports of

the SPGR the research grants provided to the NARS and the technologies that have been

invented for replication. For proper understanding one needs to find out if the research had

been third party peer reviewed and certified to be robust and ready for replication. The

Consultant has tried to establish that if available information allow such an assessment.

Whether the technology that has been developed is good for replication among marginal and

small farmers would be hard to establish unless these are already applied on the farmers’

fields. However, another option could be to find out the costs of cultivation of use of the

newly developed technology in farmers’ conditions are lower than the existing one that is

sought to be replaced. If the trials on farmers’ fields have not been conducted yet and the

results are based only on experiments in the research stations, it would yet be possible to

provide a theoretical basis for the assessment of the cost-effectiveness of the new technology.

Evaluation Objective 4

The fourth objective is also related to the effectiveness of research this time of the component

under KGF for competitive grants programme. The objective is:

To assess the relevance and usefulness of applied and adaptive research under

Competitive Grants Scheme (CGS) in generating better technologies for the concerned

sectors.

The manner of assessment of the KGF activities for competitive grants programme is rather

similar to that for SPGR except that the KGF’s operation is much wider in responding the

demand from not simply the NARS but beyond that to individuals from private bodies and

NGOs. Except that the method of assessment is similar to that for SPGR.

Evaluation Objective 5

The fifth objective as stated earlier is

To examine the efficacy and effectiveness of the new extension services model vis-a vis the

existing ones and to find out whether the new model is participatory, decentralized and based

on felt needs of targeted beneficiaries.

There are three extension systems under NATP, one each for crops, livestock and fishery

respectively, for introducing technological information through training and real life

demonstration in 120 upazilas. The basic process is as follows:

In each upazila, farmers are organized in Common Interest Groups (CIG) in the ratio of 7:2:1

for crops, livestock and fisheries. Farmers can be members of only one CIG through which it

can receive training and participate in demonstration plots/exercises in more than one

technology for the sub-sector-specific extension. Thus, a CIG may receive training and

participate in demonstration in technology related to rice yield gap minimization, AWD,

improved mustard and lentil technology or for any other crop among several as well as can

take part in seed preservation, compost making etc. In case of livestock and fisheries the

available technologies are rather limited to 2 or 3. There are CIGs which draw their

membership exclusively from women farmers.

The CIGs were initially expected to be formed by NGOs. Later, however, it was decided that

the DAE/DLS and DF is the main agents for forming the groups. It was expected that only in

Page 22: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

9

this manner is there be a full ownership of the groups by the extension departments and that

in future technological backstopping may be ensured even if the project discontinues.

Each CIG is expected to prepare its own plan of actions (training, demonstrations, planting)

related to the technology. These are aggregated at the union and subsequently at the upazila

level for a particular fiscal year. This provides the demand side of the plan. From the

NATP/extension side there are allocations pf resources (financial, trainers etc) which are then

matched with the demand and a final plan is thus prepared and implemented CIG by CIG for

the particular upazila. In theory this is thus a bottom up micro level planning for technology

dissemination and practice.

Investigating the process: The Consultant has tried to find out how far the practice matches

with theory, and if there are deviations in practice the reasons thereof. These relate to

formation of the CIGs, and their operations (appointment of office bearers, land holding

groups of farmers, regularity of meeting and their minutes, savings schemes, if any, micro

level planning) as well as the support received from the NATP and all the three extension

services. Apart from these, there are also support provided for running what are called

Farmers’ Information and Advice Centres (FIAC). These centres provide necessary

information to farmers on demand.

The main method of investigation here is the checking of records of the chosen CIGs, and

associated FAICs, information obtained from the extension services as well as the NATP

from their records of support provided and received.

The immediate output of the process are several such as trainings imparted to CIG members,

demonstrations on farmers’ fields, information obtained on resolution of farmers’ problems

through training, FAIC, demonstrations and their application by farmers. The final output has

to be the actual practice of the technology or the working method. For a crop technology this

is the area of land on which the technology has been applied by specific farmers, the type of

farmers who have applied those, the yield levels and the inputs going into the application of

the technology, the changes, if any, of the farmer’s cropping patterns and calendars, the

profitability of the technology and the changed cropping patterns. The Consultant tried to find

out how far the adoption of the technology is related to the training and similar other services

received from NATP and extensions services. It should be noted that three types of farmers

were requested to provide the relevant information. These are the CIG farmers, non-CIG

farmers in the same or neighbouring village and a control group of farmers in an area where

Page 23: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

10

there are no CIGs. Also note that while farmers can become members of only one CIG, this

does not preclude them from learning from farmers from other CIGs who may have different

trainings and demonstrations. It this becomes quite a complex mosaic of activities. Thus,

while one can try to have the effectiveness of a particular technology for raising yield, output

and income, in reality the end result for the farmer has to be the farm level rise in aggregate

output and income. All these apply in various degrees and forms also to CIGs for livestock

and fishery technology although the complexities are less due to the limited number of

technologies that are being introduced.

Evaluation Objective 6 and 7

Objectives 6: To assess the nature and impact of development of supply chains for fruits,

vegetables, poultry and fish through the use of improved technologies and post-harvest value

additions in terms of productivity and healthy production.

Objective 7: To assess how post-harvest technology and management practices for high value

agriculture helped promote improvement in farmer-market linkages.

The two objectives are inter-linked as development of a supply chain of farm products must

of necessity be related to market linkages as without this the development of no supply chain

can be effective. In any case, here several types of post-harvest operations and their

technology are sought to be introduced and farmers trained in them for their ultimate

adoption and practice. These include various post-harvest processing technology, use of sex

pheromones for non-pesticide control of insects and pests, shelf life improvement of products

and the commodity collection and marketing centres.

In general the support to value chain activities may be observed along with CIGs and thus be

CIG farmers who are expected to be part of sample for assessing effectiveness of extension

activities, some of the value chain activities are not in the sampled CIGs. For each value

chain activity, the Consultant found out the training and demonstrations that have been

undertaken by the Hortex and received by the farmers. The information from Hortex is based

on their records while farmers’ information is collected first hand from them. The

effectiveness of the training and demonstration received is judged based on the costs and

benefits of the activities with information collected primarily from the farmers. Part of the

analysis is quantitative and part is qualitative.

Objective 8

Objective 8 is:

To examine whether the procurement process (invitation of tenders, evaluation,

approval procedures, contract award etc) of the packages (goods, works and

services) under this project was followed as per PPR08/development partner's procurement

guidelines.

This objective is straightforward and solely based on records of the entities involved in such

procurement i.e., various project offices. Auditors’ reports and annual reports of the

organisations, as available, have been used for assessment of the expenditure procedures.

Objective 9

Objective 9 is:

To assess the impact of project on increasing the productivity, livelihood security and

profitability in crops sector, livestock and inland aquaculture.

This objective is already captured under Objective 5 and is not treated separately.

Objective 10

Objective 10 is:

To identify the strengths and opportunities as well as weaknesses and external

threats that may affect functioning of the project activities.

Under objectives 1-9 as and wherever applicable, the Consultant is examining the project

rules and procedures, the deviations from the rules, the practices as recorded and the results

thereof and also the perceptions of the farmers regarding these procedures and the outcomes

of such practices. Furthermore the planning exercises from the CIG level to the upazilas has

been assessed and the efficacy of the supports and initiatives examined. All of these allow the

Consultant to assess how far some of these have facilitated (strengths) or hindered

(weaknesses) the process and the outcomes of the project. External threats, however, is a

different matter altogether. Assessing these is difficult and the Consultant is trying to

understand these based on extensive discussion with the World Bank (the financier of

NATP), the MoA and the Project Coordination Unit of the NATP. This has the danger that

Page 25: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

12

people may not wish to discuss their own shortcomings but rather put the onus on others.

How to know the real situation from all these conversations is difficult but is being tried as

far as practicable by the Consultant.

Objective 11

Objective 11 is:

To provide recommendations for more efficient and sustainable utilization of use of

agriculture research and extension system, public funding, PPP enterprises, post-

harvest technology and identification of best practices for replication in similar other

projects.

This objective is fulfilled by drawing upon the assessments and analyses under all the

previous objectives.

Methods of Analyses and Investigation

Both quantitative and qualitative data was collected and analysed and assessed for

effectiveness of NATP. Quantitative data was pertained to several objectives such as

Objective 5 and also the research components as well as resources and financial support

provided.

Qualitative method was used for understanding perceptions under several of the objectives

described above. A number of techniques of qualitative analysis have been developed. These

are

a) Rapid Appraisal

b) Participant Observation and Impact Assessment

c) Focus Group Discussion

d) Participatory Impact Assessment

For both qualitative and quantitative survey, the appropriate sample size is determined by

three factors: estimated prevalence of variables of interest, desired level of confidence and

acceptable margin of error.

3.12 Sample Size

As the farm households constitute the CIGs, the sample size of households covering all over

Bangladesh was estimated through an approach based on confidence level and precision rate.

For this purpose, the following formula has been used:

2

)1(

E

ZPPn

Where,

n = Estimated sample size

Z = Value of standard normal variate at a given level of confidence = 1.96

(considering 95% confidence level)

P = proportion of success for the indicator i.e., becoming a member of CIG

E = Precision rate or amount of allowable error in the estimate = 0.05

(considering 5% allowable error or precision level)

In a village, the team takes it that there is at least one CIG, in some cases there may be none

and other cases more than one averaging one. Now a CIG has 20 farmer members out of say

150 farmers in a village which gives a random probability of inclusion as 0.13. If there are

two CIGs, the probability (.e. P rises to 0.26) which we use for the desired sample size.

Taking 95% confidence level and 5% precision rate, the total sample size of households for

all over Bangladesh is estimated at 296 from above formula, taking no design effect as

clustered sampling is not considered here (the farmers from CIGs are chosen at random). It

has been rounded to 300. Taking 150 control households the total sample size of farmers

becomes 450.

Sample Selection

More than a dozen crop-based technologies have been introduced along with several related

to preservation of soil nutrients or ensuring quality seeds. Generally the technologies for yield

gap minimization in rice production appears to be most widely adopted and are found in all

the 120 upazilas under NATP. Other technologies are observed with certain concentration,

but there appears to be little pattern in them. Livestock and fishery technologies are observed

only in places where these are major economic activities. But note that in all upazilas there

are some livestock and fishery-based CIGs. Also note that as discussed earlier, farmers may

Page 27: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

14

have adopted any of the available technologies although they may remain members of only

one CIG. Given this situation, it was prudent to go not by technology in selecting samples,

but by basic agro-ecology. We actually have chosen the upazilas at random from the North-

west, South-west, North-east, Central and South-east of the country. We expect to find

everywhere crop, livestock and fishery-based CIGs. We have taken 4 CIGs at random from

each upazila, 2 of which is crop CIGs, one is livestock and other is fishery CIG and collected

data from 30 farmers in all, 20 farmers from crop CIG, 5 farmers from livestock CIG and 5

farmers from fishery CIG. That gives 300 beneficiary respondents in all. The ten upazilas

selected at random are the following:

Selection of Control Farmers

The benefits of a program on its participants may not be reflected accurately in a comparison

of the relevant indicators of the beneficiary at the completion of the programme due to some

autonomous changes or various other interventions that may affect the programme

beneficiary as well as non-beneficiaries. Hence, comparable non-participants in the

programme – the “control” group, need to be selected. They should be selected in such a way

Page 28: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

15

that the socio-economic background of the control group is similar to those of the beneficiary

group, but not under the program. The rationale for selecting “control group” during for the

impact survey is that it would better indicate the impact of the program on the beneficiaries.

The control group has been selected from the areas not involved in the project or non-CIG

farmers and the number of respondents is 150 from different upazilas (Total 15 from each

upazilla and among them 10 farmers from crop CIG, 5 farmers from livestock and fishery

CIG)

Sample for Supply Chain Analysis

The selection of respondents for supply chain analysis is a little difficult as only 20 upazilas

so far have been brought under this component. It may be noted however that 3 of the

upazilas selected at random (Jhikergacha, Delduar and Belabo) had been under the initial 10

upazilas for supply chain improvement. Of the newly added upazilas also there is one upazila

in the sample above which also falls under the supply chain development (Pirganj). We

expect therefore that some ideas of the efficacy of the supply chain component may be

captured from the sample selected above.

While it was difficult to speculate at initial stage as to which technologies was found in the

field, we expected to find RYGM practically everywhere and so the analysis of the rice crop

yield, output and related changes is statistically measurable. For other technologies, it is

likely to be observed more sporadically and thus the margins of error may be possibly large

in such cases. To help in minimizing erroneous conclusions, we stated earlier supplement the

quantitative surveys with qualitative information obtained through KIIs.

Data Collection Instruments

Both quantitative and qualitative data have been collected for the evaluation survey.

Quantitative Data: Face to Face interview using structured questionnaire

Qualitative Data: Focus Group Discussion (FGD), Key Informant Interview (KII)

Questionnaire Survey: A pre-tested structured questionnaire has been used. This has been

modified based on field trial and be finally prepared and administered in Bangla. For

objectives such as research grants and types of research etc under both KGF and the SPGR, a

Page 29: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

16

suitable checklist was prepared for data collection. The questionnaire modeled on the recent

evaluation of the NATP extension services is given in Appendix 1.

Qualitative Surveys: The present study used mainly the FGD (taking care to conduct it

among homogeneous groups) and intensive discussion related to perceptions. Checklists have

been prepared for KIIs and the FGDs in due course.

In-depth interview of Key Informants and Service providers: Interviews have been

conducted with key persons in the service providing organisations such as the NATP PCU,

BARC, KGF, the extension service providers, and Hortex.

Focus Group Discussions (FGDs): Focus group discussion has been conducted in the CIGs

and Non-CIGs for understanding some of the issues related to process and perceptions

regarding general conduct of the project. Each FGD has been involved 8 to 10 participants.

1.4 Implementation Method

Inception report

An Inception Report was submitted in February, This was discussed threadbare and approved

by the IMED Technical and Steering Committee. The final ToR, the sampling method, the

geographic coverage and the upazilas all were firmed up based on the approved Inception

Report.

Team mobilisation

A four member team of experts have been mobilized. They are the Team Leader, an

economist, an agricultural engineer and an agricultural economist. They prepared the

questionnaire and FGD check lists.

Recruitment of Field Staff and Data Collection

The Consultant recruited 6 Field investigators including one lady investigator and 1

supervisor. They were thoroughly trained. They were formed into two groups and

simultaneously covered two areas and the samples therein as well as consulting officials

locally.

Page 30: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

17

Pre-testing of the Questionnaire

The Team visited Gazipur (Salna) to test the questionnaire and collected information from

CIG farmers. Modification and improvement of the questionnaire were made on the basis of

the results of the pre-test.

Planning for Data Collection

A well thought-out, realistic and tenable work plan is essential for ensuring timely

completion of field work and to get good quality data. In this regard, therefore, the first

priority was to prepare a work plan before the actual fieldwork is started. While preparing the

work plan, the following major considerations have been kept in mind.

- Timely and smooth completion of the field work;

- Establish rapport in the study area;

- Close supervision and monitoring of field work.

Field Visits by Research Team Members

Strict supervision of field interviewing is made to ensure collection of high quality data. The

researchers made frequent field visits to supervise the fieldwork. Apart from supervisory

checks, the researchers gave on-the-spot solution to the problems. These visits provided

moral booster to the team members to carry out constant strenuous jobs and to maintain the

desired quality of work.

Monitoring of Data Collection

Monitoring of data collection has been ensured in different ways. The key professionals and

coordinators have closely supervised the work of the interviewers and perform the following

duties for the purpose of assuring the quality of data:

- Verified, on-the-spot, the interviewing technique

- Made random checks to ensure that respondents are interviewed properly and

correctly;

- Had all schedules checked by field interviewers as far as practicable to check for

inconsistencies and incomplete responses (if any);

- Discussed problems with the interviewers ;

- Monitored the interviewers’ progress report.

Page 31: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

18

Data Processing and Data Management

The filled in questionnaires are considered as the source of raw data. For effective and

accurate analysis and quality output generation, the following activities have been undertaken

with the surveyed data:

Filing filled in questionnaire

Editing and coding questionnaire for entry to computer

Quality control

Data Input to Computer

Preparation of Appropriate Computer Program

Not all the data was in the form of figures. There are many reports that was examined and

assessed. These relate to research activities, administrative procedures and financial matters,

annual reports and guidelines of organisations and soft information in the relevant web sites.

Data Analysis

Quantitative Data Analysis: For attaining the objectives of the study, both descriptive

(proportion for categorical variables, mean for continuous variables having normal

distribution) and empirical analysis (probit and Tobit model) are done with statistical

software (SPSS 16, STATA 11). To know the differences between groups, t-test (for

continuous variables) and test (for categorical variables) are computed. Probit and Tobit

model approaches are followed to know the determinants of adoption and level of adoption

for T. Aman (RYGM) and Boro (RYGM) (Tobin, 1958; Maddala, 1992; Gujarati, 2003).

Details of these models construction are available in Chapter 3.

Qualitative Data Analysis: Much of the qualitative data are being analysed using simple

statistics such as frequency analysis and similar other techniques. These were employed

extensively. In appropriate cases tests are computed.

1.5 Present Implementation Status of the Project

The Government of Bangladesh (GOB) has been implementing the National Agricultural

Technology Project (NATP) with the financial assistance from the World Bank (through IDA

credit) and International Fund for Agricultural Develo nt (IFAD) to address the upcoming

Page 32: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

19

issues and emerging challenges in agriculture, particularly food security. NATP is the first 5-

year phase of a long term (15 years) program to support GOB’s strategy to increase n onal

agricultural productivity and farm incomes. Its focus is on revitalizing the agricultural

technology system that includes agricultural research, extension and development of supply

chain.

The Project has four components viz. agricultural research support component, agricultural

extension support component, supply chain development component and project coordination

and management component. These components are being implemented through 7

implementing units. These are: i) Project Coordination Unit (PCU),Ministry of Agricu ture

(MOA); ii) Project Implementation Unit (PIU), Bangladesh Agricultural Research Council

(BARC); iii) Project Implementation Unit (PIU), Department of Agriculture Extension

(DAE); iv) Project Implementation Unit (PIU), Department of Fisheries (DOF); v) Project

Implementation Unit (PIU), Department of Livestock Services (DLS); vi) Krishi Gobeshona

Foundation (KGF); and vii) Hortex Foundation (Hortex).

As per DPP provision, the project activities were planed to start from July 2007 but the

project loan became effective on 25 March 2008, and therefore, the NATP Phase-1 is

considered commenced on 25 March 2008. Thus, different components initiated their

activities in October 2008 after the release of PA funds. Many of the projects implementing

units were established in the FY 2008-2009. Thus, they could not initiate all activities dur ng

the year 2008-2009. During 2009-2010, all units were fully operational and initiated all

activities in full swing.

The overall objective of the longer term NATP is to support GOB’s strategy to improve

national agricultural productivity and farm income, with particular focus on small and

marginal farmers. The development objective of the Phase-1 of the NATP is to improve

effectiveness of the national agricultural technology system in Bangladesh. More specifically

the national agricultural system would be enabled to support:High priority, pluralistic,

participatory and demand-led agricultural research;Decentralized, participatory, demand-led

and knowledge based approach for agricultural extension;Improved post harvest technology

and management practices for high value agriculture by promoting farmer-market linkages as

part of the development of selected supply chains; and Agreed reforms for the agricultural

research and extension systems; increased public funding for the systems and promote an

effective use of such resources; and promote public-private partnership in research, extension

and supply chain development.

Page 33: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

20

Krishi Gobeshona Foundation (KGF) is responsible for management and implementation of

Competitive Grants Program (CGP). Project Implementation Unit of Bangladesh Agricultural

Research Council (PIU-BARC) is responsible for implementation of Sponsored Public Goods

Research (SPGR) and Enhancement of Research Institutional Efficiency (ERIE) Programs.

Under ERIE program, the major activities conducted were distribution of scholarships/slots

and placement of scholars for in-country and international PhD, international training, local

training and workshop for capacity build and skills development of NARS scientists and

administrative personnel. Department of Agricultural Extension (DAE) is responsible for

implementation of crop extension sub-component activities. The aim of this sub-component

is to establish decentralized demand-led and knowledge-based extension services with greater

accountability and responsiveness to farmers and focus on small and marginal farmers.

Department of Livestock Services (DLS) is responsible for the implementation of this

subcomponent. Department of Fisheries (DOF) has been implementing this sub-component.

Supply Chain Development Component (SCDC) is being implemented by the Hortex

Foundation. The main focus of this component was to integrate small and marginal producers

of high value commodities (crops/horticulture, fisheries and livestock) with the market

through supply chain development. The Project Coordination Unit (PCU) provides

coordination and facilitation among the NATP implementing units.

1.5.1 Common Interest Groups

The project’s perception for extension system is to develop a decentralized extension services

(DES) which comprises village level extension planning through common interest groups

(CIGs), and their federation (producers' organization) at union, upazila and district levels.

The whole gamut of planning, implementation and monitoring processes will be done at

upazila level through participatory planning by the CIGs. Creation and strengthening of

social capital through technological interventions (i.e., shifting of subsistence agriculture to

commercial agriculture) and increasing ability of the communities to convert their social

capital into economic capital by developing organizational capacity to manage, implement

and monitor agricultural development activities are of utmost priority. These obviously

include the empowerment of the community organizations (CIGs and POs) to increase their

ability to plan, execute and monitor their activities. The activities also include the

development of gender sensitive local institutions that can manage and mobilize community

assets, and make new investments in agricultural productivity increase.

Selection Criteria for CIG Member:

• Group size: A group should have 20 members (for crop, livestock, fisheries and Hortex);

• Socio-economic status: Members of a group should be of the same socio-economic status

and of a specific gender, male or female. However, in case of fisheries CIGs, there could be

mixed groups;

• Category of groups: Small and Marginal Farmer Groups (land ownership up to one hectare)

80 per cent, Medium and Large Farmer Groups (land ownership above one hectare) 20 per

cent and Women Farmer Groups (irrespective of land ownership) 30 percent of all groups.

• Homogeneity: No mixed group of male and female with exceptions for female headed

household (mostly in case of crop CIGs) but in case of livestock and fisheries CIGs, mixed

group may be formed.

• Dwelling status: Has to be a permanent resident of the concerned para/ village. A “Borga

Chasi’ who is engaged in farming activities, may be member of a CIG but he should be a

permanent resident in the community.

• Membership: One from one family.

• Member selection from existing group: Selection of CIG members from existing groups of

the project of executing agencies is encouraged for avoiding duplication and conflict in the

same area. However, such group members should have common interest with the other CIG

members. This is equally applicable to members of local NGOs, common interest should be

in agriculture related activities rather than in credit.

•Other consideration: The above criteria may be flexibly considered, in areas where they are

difficult to follow. In such cases process has to be recorded very clearly.

Formation and Management of CIGs

Formation and management of CIG is a process of social mobilization. The capacity of CIG

depends on the problem identification, prioritization, planning, utilization of local resources,

linking with market opportunities and preparation of micro plan. Their (CIGs) contributions

towards preparation, implementation and monitoring of extension activities at the union level

will ultimately pave the way

Page 35: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

22

for a greater extension scenario. However, they require expertise in facilitation. Union

Extension Facilitation Team (UEFT) is empowered to provide such supports. The UEFT

consists of SAAO of DAE, CEAL of DLS, LEAF of DOF and local NGO representatives.

DAE/DOF/DLS should include training tropic/events on social mobilization in their trainers-

training programme on a regular basis. The resource speakers should be selected from NGOs,

government organizations, rural development academies and Universities having experience

in social mobilization. This process will help institutionalizing the social mobilization process

within DAE/DOF/DLS, enhance their capacity and sustaining the programme even after the

project is over.

1.5.2 Farmers’ Information and Advice Centers (FIACs)

Union is the lowest administrative unit of the government. It is a local government institution

run by the ‘Union Parishad (Council)’ which is composed of an elected chairman, nine

elected members and three nominated women representatives. The Union Parishad (UP)

usually is associated with rural development activities like maintenance of rural roads,

constructions of small bridges and culverts and also assisting GOs and NGOs in rural

development activities. For enhancing two-way flow of knowledge and information between

CIG and other stakeholders (extension staff, research scientists, NGOs, the private sector and

the local government), Farmers’ Information and Advice Centers (FIACs) at union level

should be established by the DAE/DOF/DLS. The DAE should take the lead role in the

establishment of FIAC.

Fund Allocation and Expenditure Incurred

The project activities started one and half years after the NATP effective date due to late

recruitment of the Project Director and other experts in PCU. This has resulted in a much

lower expenditure. Since inception to June 30, 2013 total expenditure incurred in NATP

stands to tk. 44608.89 lakh (RPA-Tk. 41296.86 lakh & GOB Tk. 3312.03 lakh).

A statement of unit wise RADP Allocation for the FY 2012-13 and actual expenditure against

the RADP allocation are shown in Table 5.17. On an average 87.23% of the allocated fund

was spent by all units. Economic code-wise expenditure statement of different PIUs for FY

2012-13 is presented in Table 1.4.

CHAPTER 2

ASSESSMENT OF THE RESEARCH COMPONENT UNDER NATP PHASE -1

2.1 Distribution of CGP and SPGR Project among Different Organization

Earlier it has been pointed out that the research components included two types of research,

viz., SPGR and KGF-sponsored. Both have been evaluated based on records available to the

evaluation team. Table 2.1 shows the distribution of research project over the NATP Phase 1

under both. It is clear that in case of sponsored public goods research (SPGR) 4 organizations

have predominated for conducting research which include BARI, BRRI, BARC and BAU.

For CGP under KGF funding, BARI, BAU, BSMRAU and NGOs received more projects (for

details, see also Appendix Table 2.1 and Appendix Table 2.2). Only BAU appeared to be

common to both the strands of research support. Also note that many organisations failed to

receive any project support from CGP while under SPGR also several organisations received

only a few projects. It was not possible to verify though whether these organisations

submitted projects and were not successful in their bid or they did not apply for as many as

others did. The preeminence of BARI among these all is understandable as BARI is involved

in the research of many crops and they also have the highest number of scientists under its

purview and hence there were probably more scope for scientists therein to apply for grants.

Research grant under CGP has been provided for disseminating, validating and or

improvement of technology or knowledge those already have been developed by the research

organizations. While research grant under SPGR has been provided for developing or

improving new technology or knowledge those have to be disseminated in future. So the

technologies or knowledge developed under SPGR are not disseminated yet. There has some

field trial results only. The technologies or knowledge listed under section 2.4.2 are in hand

for further dissemination.

2.2 Distribution Pattern of Project in Different Ecosystem/areas

More interesting than the organizational distribution is perhaps that by ecosystem (Table 2.2).

It is clear that the diversity here was much more. Among those which attracted more projects

included saline and hill ecosystems, disease and pest management, farming system etc. It

appears that SPGR was more diversified than KGF-supported research.

2.4.2.12 Fish Culture and Management

42. Allozyme electrophoresis revealed 4 loci in Rohu fishes while 3 in Mrigal.

43. Highest growth of silver carp has been found in ditches constructed in low land.

At Noakhali coastal belt, fish culture in rice field appeared successful and

profitable.

2.4.2.13 Livestock Sector

44. Ninety six G-0 does produced 189 G1 kids of pure Black Bengal goat and 5 G-1

does produced 7 G2 kids (Cross bread). Preventive measures for infectious

diseases have been introduced that reduced mortality of the kids. Supplementary

food for pregnant does have been introduced. The farmers have already adopted

the technology. Community approach of dairy cattle management following

scientific method resulted in overall improvement of the dairy cow.

45. So far 17 superior and meritorious young dairy seed bulls were registered and their

detail information has already been passed to the cattle breeding service providers.

46. A study was conducted for improvement of dietary nutrient based on milk urea

nitrogen (MUN). In dry season significant difference in MUN was found among

Genotypes (Crossbred and local cows) and lactation. The factors like genotypes

(Red Chittagong cattle and Pabna cattle), milking time, Lactation, season and

parities influence the milk constitutes significantly

2.4.2.14 Hill Ecosystem

47. Techniques have been developed to conserve the excess rain water in the hill to

intensify the agricultural activities during dry period. Installation of pumps, ring

tube well and other activities have been completed.

48. In hill ecosystem farmers obtained 57%, 60% and 71% less yield for pineapple,

banana and orange respectively when compared to the research managed yield due

to their ignorance and lack of modern technical knowledge

2.4.2.15 Coastal Ecosystem

49. Under coastal eco-system several crops like sunflower, maize, soybean and

sesame were grown successfully. During fallow period (after T. Aman rice) BARI

and duck rearing; Beef fattening; Cage culture of fish; Fish polyculture in seasonal

pond and Fish drying resulted increased income of the farmers.

2.4.2.17 Farming Systems Research

51. Nine projects on Farming System Research have been awarded to address under

different ecosystems including hill and haor. The on-going activities include

intervention and monitoring the whole farm activities of small, marginal and

landless farmers. Introduction of modern varieties of Jute seed, different

vegetables, sharisa, mouri and roshune increased crop yield.

52. Introduced BINA dhan-7 and obtained an average yield of 4.0 t/ha. BRRI dhan28

and other inputs have given to the selected farmers.

53. Duckling and pigeon have been distributed among some female farmers. Animals

in the farming system areas were vaccinated and distributed saplings of mango,

year round lemon, tezpata and mahogany among the farmers

2.4.2.18 Climatic Vulnerability

54. Practically no useful information could be generated from the sub-project on

fungal disease incidence in relation to climate change. In climate vulnerable area

of Rangpur about 200 beneficiaries have started community based fisheries and

also others involved in raising fingerling and cage culture. Some areas along the

river have been declared as sanctuary, which resulted tremendous increase of

different natural fishes

2.4.2.19 Cross Cutting

55. Adoption of rice-duck technology increased rice grain yield by 20-30% and 50-

60% higher net income/ha over sole rice system in addition, farmers earn Tk. 600-

900 daily by selling 100-150 eggs regularly.

processing system and the properties of 10s 50:50/Jute: Cotton blended yarn and

denim fabrics are comparable to the cotton denim fabric. This innovated

technology has already been transferred to an industry through a MoU signed

recently

2.5 Training Provided

Formal training is an important part for updating skills and acquisition of new ones. Table

2.4 provides information on Ph.D training in-country and abroad by organization. The

highest number of PhD was awarded among the BARI scientist followed by BRRI, BJRI,

BSRI, etc. No higher study program was awarded among BSRTI and BCDB of NARS

Institute. Like distribution of number project among the NARS institute, again we find, a

high concentration of PhD program distributed for two organisations, BARI and BRRI. It

may be that they have more scientists than others and therefore their share is higher than

others. For in-country Ph.D. programme, just a quarter of field of research is in agronomy,

while soil science also received a fair quota. Other sub-disciplines were represented much

more poorly. Initially 30 PhD programs in aboard were approved however, 29 out of them

were achieved (Table 2.5).

Most of the in-country PhD fellows got admission in BAU (43 no.) followed by

BSMRAU (12 no.), DU (03), BUET (01) and RU (01) (Table 2.6). The progresses of the

PhD fellows were reported to be satisfactory. Among the PhD fellows in aboard, most the

fellows got admission in China (11 No.), Thailand (08 no.), Malaysia (07 no.). No PhD

fellows are allowed to get admission in western country.

Apart from Ph.D. programs, short term local training was arranged for 5623 scientists,

2.6 Discussion on Results

The results of projects under SPGR could not be examined because the technologies just have

been developed and some are still under process. At this stage technology did not go to the

field. However from the results of some field trial we could draw some conclusion. Out of the

research endeavors many excellent outputs have been achieved in the areas of variety

development, production technologies, pest and disease management, cropping system, water

management, animal and fish management, crop production system for hilly, coastal, haor,

barind areas and from some basic studies.

Seven varieties were developed under this program. The names of the varieties are i) BINA

dhan 10, ii) aromatic rice hybrid variety: BU hybrid dhan 1, iii) hybrid summer tomato

variety: BARI hybrid tomato 8, iv) white jute variety: BJCA 2197, v) lentil variety: BARI

musur 7, vi) Chickpea variety: BARI chola 9, and vii) Garlic variety: BAU garlic.

The above developed varieties are important in our current cropping pattern. A high yielding

short duration salt tolerant rice variety named as BINA dhan-10 will contribute in rice

production in about 2.85 mha under coastal ecosystem. Heat tolerant tomato could contribute

enhancing income generation in rural people in off season. Heat tolerant wheat could increase

wheat production in the country towards reduction in import of wheat grain.

In addition to variety development some production technology have been developed that are

helpful for achieve potential yield from the existing varieties of different crops. Some

significant production technologies are application of dolochun (lime), IPNS technology on

mustard, Boro, rice, wheat, jute, and maize was developed, gummosis disease of jackfruit,

canker disease of citrus, powdery mildew disease of jujube, major diseases of brinjal and

tomato, soil borne diseases of tomato, brinjal, lentil, and chickpea and rhizome rot disease of

zinger were developed. IPM on vegetable crops and coconut mite control has been

demonstrated among the farmers. Tissue culture protocol for BARI kola 3 and 4 was

standardized.

Cropping pattern is an important issue in agriculture where more than one crop is grown in a

year. Cropping pattern with mungbean or mustard- Boro rice – T. Aman rice, crop patterns of

Aus, Aman and potato/mustard and mungbean were developed. BARI til 4 produced 44%

higher yield after T. Aman rice in the Khulna region. In hill ecosystem round the year

vegetable production model was developed.

47

Potato storage is a burning issue at present because farmers are not getting the benefit of

potato production. A low cost farm level storage facilities for 3-5 months storing of potato

was developed. Low cost potato storage at farm level with the modified/improved method

will reduce storage loss, increase storability by more than a month and net profitability was

calculated to be 1770 TK/ton compared to famer’s practice.

Apart from the crop production technology there some farm machinery also has been

developed. USG applicator, rice transplanter, seed drier, solar pump are some important

technology. However a good drier for agro-product processing is needed.

There are successful practices on fish polyculture in low land with constructed ditches and

rice + fish culture in wet land of coastal areas of Noakhali that increase income of local

communities.

In livestock sector, vaccine against Pollurum disease of poultry was developed. Its impact in

poultry sector is enormous. Cheaper milk replacer for calf and cheaper feed supplement to

increase milk output has been developed and calf mortality has been reduced by 93%.

For sustaining further research progress in future, scientists got training in higher studies and

in short courses and to facilitate quality research, some sophisticated laboratories were

established equipped modern laboratory instruments in the NARS institutes under funding

from the research component of NATP phase 1. In addition to publication of booklets and

leaflets scientists published 49 technical bulletins, 27 full research articles out of the project

activities.

2.7 Summary of Research Component Evaluation and Recommendations

The achievements under the SPGR and KGF-sponsored research may be summarized as

follows:

A total number of 108 research sub-projects have been implemented under SPGR by

PIU and 86 sub – project under CGP by KGF during NATP Phase-1

The sub-projects are distributed among the different ecosystems and areas.

About 50% of the sub-project has been completed and the rests are near completion.

Out of the research activities many excellent outputs have been achieved in the areas

of variety development, production technologies, pest and disease management,

Page 61: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

48

cropping system, water management, animal and fish management, crop production

system for hilly, coastal, haor, barind areas and from some basic studies.

Seven varieties verities are developed, namely BINA dhan 10, aromatic rice hybrid

variety: BU hybrid dhan 1, hybrid summer tomato variety: BARI hybrid tomato 8,

white jute variety: BJCA 2197, lentil variety: BARI musur 7, Chickpea variety: BARI

chola 9, Garlic variety: BAU garlic 3.

Several crop management technologies are developed those are In addition to variety

development some production technology of application of dolochun (lime), IPNS

technology on mustard, Boro, rice, wheat, jute, and maize, disease management

technology, potato storage technology, insect management technology etc. are

developed.

Some important cropping patterns have been developed. For example short duration

rice variety and mungbean increased farmers income and food security as well in

monga prone area.

Farm machinery for example USG applicator and seed drier could be helpful for

marginal farmers.

Fish polyculture in low land with constructed ditches and rice + fish culture in wet

land of coastal areas are successful practices for income generations.

Vaccine against Pollurum disease of poultry is promising technology in poultry sector

A total 90 number of PhD programs were awarded among the NARS scientists

including two personnel from ministries also

Short term local training was arranged for 5623 scientists, 106 scientists received

short term foreign training, 20 scientists undertook foreign study visits, and 57

scientists participated in foreign seminar /workshop.

For further continuation of research some sophisticated laboratories were established

equipped with modern instruments.

From the above one can conclude that the research effort had been quite successful as they

go, with better achievements in some fields compared to others. However, it appears that

most studies have had limited goals and their general applicability in terms of technology

developed remain to be further investigated. Secondly, the difference in the two strands of

Page 62: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

49

research is not always obvious. SPGR should have broad based goals while KGF-sponsored

research may be more focused which these generally are. A third issue that came up but not

specifically probed was the long time needed in proposal submission, verification, award,

grant release seem to be rather long while the actual research time may be comparably short

for understanding the sustainability of the technology developed or tested.

Based on these the team recommends the following:

a. Both SPGR and KGF sponsored research should be programme based for general

applicability, some progress has been made by focusing on hill and coastal ecosystem

which should be further carried forward

b. Because of nature of transformation from project to programme, multi-year, larger

research ideas should be developed

c. SPGR should concentrate more on research for broad-based applicability and may

have somewhat different perspectives than KGF’s CGP which is oriented more

towards applicability of existing technologies

d. The pre-award time of verification etc. may be reviewed for shortening the process.

3.1 Socio-Economic Profile of the Respondents

Social profile of the sample farmers included age, household size, education and occupation

are presented in Table 3.1.

Age: The differences of age between the CIG and control farmers are not mentionable. The

farmers belonging to the age group of 40-49 years dominate in terms of number in every

group except the groups of crop CIG farmers and fisheries control farmers.

Household size and sex ratio: As like age, household size and male-female ratio of the CIG

and control farmers are similar. Average number of household member for the crop CIG,

livestock CIG and fisheries CIG are 4.53%, 5.06% and 5.32%, respectively. The household

family member number for the crop, livestock and fisheries control groups are 4.64%, 4.57%

and 4.40%, respectively. Households of all categories have more male members than female.

Educational attainment of the farmers: Unlike other indicators, the differences in

educational status of the CIG and control farmers are notable. The CIG farmers have better

education status than the control farmers. Relatively lower portion of the CIG farmers are

illiterate. Proportion of the farmers belonging to the highest educational group is notably high

for the CIG farmers. Their average year of schooling is also higher than the control farmers.

Primary occupation of the respondents: The primary occupation is that with which farmers

spend most of their time. Farming is the primary occupation for 78.5%, 62% and 66% of the

crop, livestock and fisheries CIG farmers. Interestingly proportion of respondents mentioning

farming as their primary occupation is low among the livestock and fisheries farmers.

3.2 Land Ownership and Land Use Pattern for the CIG and Control Farmers

On an average a crop CIG farmer owns 226.1 decimal of land. The total cultivable land for

the crop CIG farmers is 223.3 decimal, of which he owns 155.3 decimal. Compared to the

Control farmers, the CIG farmers own more land and cultivates in more land. Own land

constitutes relatively higher portion of the CIG farmers total cultivable land, than that of the

Control farmers. In these issues, the differences between the two groups are statistically

significant. After joining CIG, the farmer’s total cultivable land has increased significantly.

Before joining CIG, the CIG farmers were cultivating in 190.36 decimal of land. Their total

land ownership has also increased (Table 3.2).

Similar pattern is observed with the livestock and fisheries growers. Compared to the control

farmers, the CIG farmers have better land holding status. The CIG farmers land holding

status has improved after joining CIG. The differences between the two groups are more

notable for the livestock growers (Table 3.2).

Page 65: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

52

An immediate issue of comparability may arise here as some of the differences in output and

outcome of NATP may be more a reflection of the differences in land holding rather than the

diffusion of technology. While we would like to examine this further, for the time being we

may refer to a rather large recent evaluation of the NATP Phase I by PCU (NATP) which

came up with similar results. For CIG farmers the average land ownership was 220.4

decimals for the PCU (NATP) survey which is just above 226 in the present case. Similarly,

for the PCU (NATP) survey the average land owned by control farmers was 159.3 compared

to the 164.8 for the present survey.

Differences in land holding between the male and female CIG members are notable. Not

surprisingly, compared to the female the male CIG members have higher land holding status.

The average land ownership for the male is about 2.5 times higher than the female. The

differences between the two groups are significant incase of own cultivable land, total

cultivable land and total land ownership (Table 3.3).

3.3 Farmers’ Interactions and Experiences with CIG

The NATP has initiated new participatory extension approach through forming farmer’s

group named as Common Interest Group (CIG). The Objective 5 of the TOR was to examine

the efficacy and effectiveness of this new extension approach from the viewpoint of

transparency, participation and decentralization. To attain this objective, several indicators

are set to examine CIG formation process, functions and farmer’s participation in different

CIG activities. This section elaborately examines CIGs performances through these

objectives.

3.3.1 Organizing the CIGs

The CIG groups, each with 20 members, were initiated to effectively disseminate different

technologies to the farmers. The groups are constructed with 80% marginal & small, whereas

the rest are medium and large farmers. The other farmers in the locality are expected to be

motivated by the performances of the CIG farmers and learn and adopt different improved

farming technologies. As CIGs are viewed as a bridge to reach the farmers, their selection

process and acceptability to other farmers are very crucial. The selection process was quite

challenging for the SAAOs. The SAAOs were responsible for organizing meetings to form

CIGs. Among the crop CIG farmers 95.00% were informed by the SAAOs about CIG.

Interestingly, the SAAOs informed 14.89% and 8% of the livestock and fisheries CIG

members, respectively. This information sharing is beyond SAAOs regular responsibility and

indicates their regular intimate interaction with the different categories of farmers. The CEAL

and LEAF agents were the major information source for the livestock and fisheries CIG

farmers (Table 3.4). The numbers of farm families under jurisdiction of each SAAO are quite

large. Arranging a general meeting with all of them and selecting 20 farmers with consents

from all other farmers were near to impossible. In reality, the SAAOs organized meeting with

the farmers with whom they have good rapport and selected members from them. Hence the

selection process may not be free from bias and/or favoritism.

CIG has created conflict within and outside the group, though such dynamics with group

approach is not very uncommon. Some CIG members were jealous of other members who

received some specific technology or training or organized demonstration. This is also true

for the Control. Some observed the NATP activities to be targeted to some specific farmers

and considering themselves excluded from the process. Some were rigid to receive the

technology even if it was beneficial to them. Minimizing such conflicts is a major area of

challenge for the extension agents and CIG farmers.

3.3.2 Technologies Adopted

Among different NATP technologies, RYMG for T. Aman was the most widely adopted by

the CIG farmers. Four out of every five CIG farmers adopted the T. Aman (RYGM)

technology. T. Aman (RYGM) is followed by RYMG for Boro (55.50%) and AWD for Boro

(30.50%). Compared to these three technologies, adoption of other technologies can be

considered as sporadic (Table 3.5).

Table 3.6 shows NATP technology adoption by different educational groups. Compared to

other groups, relatively higher proportion of farmers belonging to the highest educational

group (secondary or above) adopted T. Aman (RYMG), Boro (RYMG), summer tomato,

modern mustard varieties, modern wheat varieties and modern lentil varieties. Incase of

brinjal and Aus (RYMG) the group of illiterate farmers have better adoption rate (Table 3.6).

Proportion of farmers adopting different NATP technologies is notably higher in the group of

training recipient than the group of non-recipient. The difference is significant incase of all

the technologies except lentil (Table 3.7). Training effectively introduces different aspects

and potentials of a technology to the participants which boost up their confidence to adopt the

same.

Model specification for identifying farm level determinants of NATP technologies

adoption and level of adoption

A probit model approach is followed to identify the factors influencing farm level adoption of

T. Aman (RYGM) and Boro (RYMG) technologies. Among the adopters, variation is

observed in level of adoption. Some of the adopters have applied the adopted technology is

all their available land, whereas some devoted portion of land for the technology. To explain

reasons for differences in adoption level of these two technologies a Tobit model approach is

used.

The general form of the probit model for both the technologies can be constructed as follows:

ikikiikiii xßxßxßxxy ......1Pr 22111 (3.1)

Where, Pr is the probability; iy is the i th farm’s adoption decision and is binary in nature

(1 for adopters, 0 otherwise); is the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the

standard normal distribution; and kii xx ...,,1 are different exogenous variables explaining i th

farm’s adoption decision. The list of common explanatory variables for both the technologies

are: dummy for CIG farmers (1=CIG farmers, 0=control farmers); dummy for NATP

organized agricultural fair participants (1=participant, 0=non-participant); dummy for NATP

training participants (1=trainee, 0=non-trainee); dummy for farmers visiting FIAC

(1=visitors, 0=non-visitors); log of own cultivable land (decimal); log of annual off farm

income (tk); educational status of the farmer (0= illiterate, 1=primary/less, 2= grade 6 and

above); number of active family members in the household (family members within the age

57

range of 15-65 years); and number of household member(s) with farming as primary

occupation. An additional variable to represent AWD technology adoption (dummy, 1 for

adopters and 0 for non-adopters) status is used in the model for Boro (RYGM). The

parameters kßß ...,,1 are typically estimated by maximum likelihood estimation (MLE)

procedure.

Model specification for analyzing factors influencing level of adoption

Level of adoption is identified as quantity of land under the technology. As the nature of the

endogenous variable (quantity of land used for a technology) here is censored (some farms

have 0 value as they did not cultivate that technology, whereas others cultivated), we utilize

Tobit model specification to explain differences in level of adoption.

According to Tobin (1958), i

y is observed if 0* iy and is not observed if 0* iy , and the

observed iy will be defined as;

00

0*

The error term is distributed as 2,0 N . Following Gujarati (2003), the specified model for

the farms who have adopted and who have not, can be written as:

Where, k ,...,0 are the unknown parameters to be estimated; and kii xx ,...,1 are the farm

level explanatory variables those may influence quantity of land allotted to a specific

technology. The lists of explanatory variables for both the technologies are same as is used

for the probit models. Using maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) procedure, the Tobit

model is estimated. According to Maddala (1992), the likelihood function for the Tobit model

can be written as follows:

Through maximizing the function with respect to and , we can get the MLE estimates of

these parameters.

Farm level determinants of T. Aman (RYGM) and Boro (RYMG) technology adoption

and level of adoption

Table 3.8 presents the determinants of T. Aman (RYGM) and Boro (RYMG) technology

adoption and level of adoption estimated through probit and Tobit models, respectively. The

table presents marginal effects estimated at mean referring to change in the probability of

outcome variable due to infinitesimal change in independent variables. The detailed model

estimates with coefficients and standard errors are available in Appendix 5.

CIG farmers have significantly higher probability to adopt both the technologies. Their

adoption level is significantly higher in case of Boro (RYGM). CIG membership enables

farmers to have better access to information and knowledge about different technologies.

These farmers also have better access to extension services. The extension agents focus more

with these farmers. Hence it is not surprising to have higher adoption probabilities with these

farmers. Similarly higher probability with FIAC visiting farmers can be explained. The

farmers who have visited FIAC are better adopters of both the RYGM technologies. They

also allot more land for these technologies, though the effect is not significant in the Tobit

model for T. Aman (RYGM). Here it should be noted that compared to the control farmers,

significant higher proportion of CIG farmers visited FIAC. As like FIAC visitors, the

agricultural fair visitors have higher probability of adopting Boro (RYGM) technology.

Probably the most crucial factor for adoption and level of adoption is farmers own land. A

one percent increase in the land quantity will result in 0.00035 times increase adoption

probability of T. Aman (RYGM). The similar change for the Boro farmers will increase their

probability of Boro (RYGM) adoption by 0.00061 times. A 100 percent increase in own land

quantity will increase land under T. Aman (RYGM) and Boro (RYGM) by 10.42 and 7.39

times, respectively.

The dummy of Boro (AWD) technology adoption has negative sign in both the models for

Boro (RYGM). The negative sign in the probit model means that the AWD adopters have

lower probability of adopting Boro (RYGM) technology. Compared to the AWD adopters the

non-adopters have 33.4% higher probability of adopting Boro (RYGM) technology. The

AWD non-adopters cultivate in 13.38% more land than the AWD adopters. This may happen,

as both the technologies are for increasing Boro production, a farmer may consider adopting

either one is sufficient.

a Instead of coefficients the marginal effects are reported here. Marginal effects are estimated at mean and refer

to change in the probability due to infinitesimal change in independent variable.

A farmer’s probability of adoption and level adoption of both the technologies is positively

associated with number of active family members in his household. The positive associations

mean that farms with more active family members (family members within the range of 15 to

65 years) are more likely to adopt and their adoption level is also higher. As these farms have

more active members they can easily adopt and mange new technology. But the relationship

is significant only in the Tobit model for T. Aman (RYGM).

3.3.3 Reasons for Joining CIGs

Farmers’ responses regarding reasons for joining CIG are categorized into three broad

categories: knowing modern cultivation technology, increasing production and getting

appropriate and necessary advice. Knowing modern cultivation technology is the most

pronounced reason and is mentioned in 69.04%, 92.16% and 100% of the responses made by

the crop, livestock and fisheries CIG members, respectively. Increasing production and

getting advice are mentioned in 18.51% and 12.46% responses of crop CIG farmers,

respectively (Table 3.9).

3.3.4 Meeting and Micro-Extension Plan

The CIGs were functioning quiet efficiently. Members were regularly attending meetings,

doing micro-extension plans, doing group savings, receiving and following training. Among

the crop CIG members 93.50% and 90.50% were regularly participating in CIG meetings and

doing micro-extension plans. In case of livestock and fisheries farmers 90% and 84%

reported to regularly attend meeting. Compared to the crop CIG, farmer’s involvement in

micro-extension plan is not satisfactory. Proportion of livestock and fisheries farmers doing

micro-extension plan are 26% and 44%, respectively. All most all the three categories of CIG

farmers involved in micro-extension plan were following the plan (Table 3.10). But no

budget is available for conducting these meetings. The organizer farmers and the SAAO

manage some refreshment for the meeting participants by their own initiative.

3.3.5 Training Received

Among the crop CIG sample farmers 187 (93.50%) received training on 14 different topics.

During the FGDs farmers reported their satisfaction about the training. Through training they

were informed about identification, production and preservation of improved seed varieties.

This has increased farm level production of seed. Consequently farmers are relying less on

seeds sold in open market. Even if they purchase those seeds, they are confident to identify

quality seeds. The agricultural officers also recognized farmers’ knowledge improvement

about seed production and identification. After training some are sowing seeds in lines with

proper spacing. Some farmers learn about balanced use of chemical fertilizers. The farmers

also reported increased use of organic manure. The agricultural officers and the SAAOs was

Page 75: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

62

the trainer in these sessions. The SAAOs pointed out the importance of the Training of

Trainers (ToT). Among the training recipients 97.33% reported to imply their training

knowledge in their daily farming, and 96.79% said that they will continue application of

training knowledge in the field (Table 3.10).

3.3.6 Group Savings

Group savings are another important activity of the CIG. Total of 175 (87.50%) crop CIG

members, 40 (80.00%) livestock CIG members and 41 (82.00%) fisheries CIG members

reported to do regular group savings (Table 3.10). These saving were used by the members in

time of need. They could take loan from these saving and use in time of need. The extension

agents mentioned group savings as an important indicator for successful group activity. The

groups doing regular savings was observed to be active and successfully implement different

CIG activities. Savings increased ownership feeling among the members.

3.3.7 Exhibition

Farmer’s participation rate in exhibition is not that much satisfactory. Only 32% of the crop

CIG farmers reported to visit exhibition. They visited 10 different types of exhibitions.

Almost all of them (98.44%) gained knowledge from exhibition. Among the exhibition

participants 89.06% were using exhibition knowledge in farming and 81.25% expressed their

willingness to continue practicing this knowledge. Participation rate incase of livestock

(22%) and fisheries (28%) CIG farmers are even poor. But the proportion of farmers

reporting to gain knowledge and using knowledge are similar to the crop CIG farmers (Table

3.10). According to the FGD participants the benefits of visiting exhibition are: increased

production, reduced cost of production, learning about different modern technologies, and

improving farming practices, etc.

3.3.8 Field Day

Among our sample crop CIG farmers 29.50% participated in different field days organized.

The field days were organized on farming issues. Some of these organized by DAE are:

RYGM, AWD, wheat, mustard, lentil, summer tomato, IPM on high value vegetables (sex

pheromone trap), jujube orchard and compost preparation. Among the livestock CIG farmers

20% participated in field day on beef fattening and dairy cow farming. The DoF organizes

Page 76: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

63

field day on carp poly-culture and tilapia culture, where only 10% of the fisheries CIG

reported to participate. Among the crop CIG visitors, 98.31% reported to gain farming

knowledge. Later 88.14% are found to use these knowledge and 88.14% are willing to

continue to practice these knowledge. Participant farmers experiences with DLS and DoF

organized field days are similar (Table 3.10).

3.3.9 Agricultural Fair

Relatively small number of CIG farmers participated in different agricultural fairs organized

by DAE, DLS and DoF. Participation rate among the crop, livestock and fisheries CIG

farmers are 23%, 12% and 16%, respectively. From fair organized by DAE the farmers

learned about modern varieties, improved farming practices and solutions of different

problems. Some of them got motivated to adopt new technology. Among the fair visitors

93.48% reported to gain knowledge from fair and 93.48% were found to use the knowledge.

A total of 38 (82.61%) visitors showed their willingness to continue practice of knowledge

gained from fair. Farmer’s satisfaction with DLS and DoF’s fair in terms of knowledge

gaining and practicing knowledge at present and in future are similar to DAE fair participants

(Table 3.10). The reasons mentioned by the farmers for their relatively lower participation

rate are: not being informed about the event, distance, lack of time and motivation, etc.

3.3.10 FIAC Activities

Farmer’s Information and Advisory Centre (FIAC) was established with a vision to work as a

center to solve farmers’ problem and technology diffusion. FIAC was established in the union

parishad. It has facilities to display different technologies (e.g. seed, moisture meter, etc.) and

ICT facilities. The respective SAAO are responsible to maintain FIAC office by rotation.

Both the farmers and extension agents during FGDs viewed FIAC to be important for solving

farmers’ problems and disseminating technology.

But FIAC has not been established is every union. Total of 156 (62.00%) sample farmers

reported about FIAC’s existence. Compared to the control farmers (33.00%), relatively

higher portion of the CIG farmers (61.50%) reported CIG’s existence. Significantly higher

portion of the CIG farmers were visiting FIAC and their average number of visits were also

higher compared to those of control farmers. Among the farmers reporting FIAC existence,

75.61% and 55.55% of the CIG and control farmers reported to visit FIAC, respectively. The

average number of number visits for the CIG farmers was around 10 (9.51), whereas it was

5.28 for the control group farmers. Though the two groups of farmer’s exhibit notable

differences in level of participation, their experiences with CIG are almost similar. The major

two problems for which they visited FIAC were: yellowish paddy leaf (45.14% and 46.15%

of total response for CIG and control group, respectively) and insect attack (33.33% and

30.77% of total response for CIG and control group, respectively) (Table 3.11). Other reasons

for visiting FIAC include: soil testing, seed production and preservation, different disease,

etc. All of the visitors reported to receive their expected advice service. But the SAAOs and

officials in extension office mentioned several constraints to deliver services. Since FIAC is

not established in every union, a FIAC is to support several unions. Hence the distance

becomes an issue for some of the visitors. All the SAAOs doing rotation in FIAC are not

Page 78: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

65

known to the farmers coming from different unions. For these two reasons some farmers feel

discouraged to visit FIAC.

Furthermore for FIAC activities SAAOs do not get any additional financial support, though

the agents in LEAF and SEAL get some minimal amount. Some financial allowance may

encourage the SAAOs. Many of the SAAOs do not have sufficient IT skills to use and

maintain the installed computer. Things become complicated when technical difficulties

arise. Along with ICT training the extension agents demanded more training on

communication and farming technology.

The farmers’ responses show that, even after having all these difficulties the FIACs were

working better than expected. All the farmers who visited FIAC reported to be satisfied with

FIAC’s advice and 98.92% followed these advices. All of them were benefitted though these

advice. The important benefits they received from FIAC are: insect control (38.54%), use of

balanced fertilizer (5.85%), production increased (30.73%) and others (24.88%) (Table 3.11).

3.3.11 Performances of LEAF

The NATP project has appointed extension agent namely Local Extension Agent for

Fisheries (LEAF). The agents are expected to work as a hub for problem solution and

technology diffusion. Compared to the fisheries control farmers, significantly higher

proportion of the fisheries CIG farmers reported about existence of LEAF. Among the sample

fisheries CIG farmers, 92% reported about existence of LEAF; whereas only 35% of the

fisheries control farmers could report about LEAF’s existence. Average number of visit made

to LEAF is also notably high among the CIG farmers. The most pronounced reason for

visiting LEAF by both the groups is gulping. Other reasons include: malnutrition, disease and

feed problems, and changing water colour. All the visitors got their expected advice and

reported to follow the advice (Table 3.12).

3.3.12 Performances of CEAL

As like LEAF for fisheries, Community Extension Agent for Livestock (CEAL) is appointed

for the livestock farmers. Almost all of the livestock CIG farmers (96%) could report about

existence of CEAL, whereas around half of the livestock control farmers (56%) could report

about the same. Three out of every four CIG farmers who could report about CEAL visited

CEAL and their average number of visits is 10.33. Less than half (46.67%) of the control

farmers reporting about existing of CEAL visited CEAL. Average number of visit is 5.14 for

the control farmers. The visitors have mentioned varieties of reasons for visiting CEAL. The

list of reasons includes: Stomatitis (inflammation of the mouth and lips) and fever, low milk

production, anorexia, worm attack and dysentery, foot and mouth disease, and artificial

insemination. Of these the most pronounced reason by both the groups is worm attack and

dysentery. Visitors experience with CEAL’s advice can be said quite satisfactory as almost

all of them reported to be benefitted by following advice (Table 3.13).

3.4 Impact Analysis of Individual Technology

3.4.1 T. Aman (RYGM)

Compared to the control farmers, the CIG farmers bear higher cost in T. Aman season which

is compensated by higher production and ultimately higher return. Fertilizer cost was the

major cost component for the CIG farmers (64.25% of total cost), whereas it was labour cost

for the control farmers (33.32% of total cost). Labour cost was almost similar for both the

groups. Here it is noteworthy mentioning that, Aman is a season where farmers cultivate

mostly local varieties and these requires low fertilizer doses. But the seed sources presented

in Table 3.19 says that the CIG farmers are collecting more seeds from formal sources like

BADC which are different varieties developed by research institutes and require more

fertilizer doses than the local varieties do. This is also an indication of more

commercialization attitude of the CIG farmers. In case of other cost items the CIG farmers

bear higher cost compared to the control group farmers. As threshing cost is associated with

production, relatively higher production in CIG farmers filed results in higher threshing cost

(Table 3.14).

On an average the CIG farmers produced 4.995 t/ha of paddy, which is 6.57% higher than the

control farmers. The impact assessment study conducted by PCU, NATP estimated 4.6 t/ha

for the CIG farmers. CIG farmers gross return (48217 tk/ha) is around 20% higher than that

of control group (40312 tk/ha) (Table 3.14).

Compared to the control farmers the CIG farmers produced more in the Boro season and

earned more. Average production for the CIG farmers was 6.49 ton/ha, whereas it was 5.98

ton/ha for the control farmers. Gross return for the CIG farmers was 25.49% higher than that

of the control farmers (Table 3.15).

3.4.3 Boro (AWD)

With no doubt, AWD is an efficient water saving technology. The adopter farmer has to

perform some additional management practices (e.g. using pipe, monitoring water level, etc.).

The technology also promises to cut labour requirement for weed management. But the

technology is not widely adopted for two major constraints as is reported in the impact

assessment report conducted by the PCU, NATP. The report says – ‘Adoption of the

technology was constrained in two fronts. Firstly, in the prevailing irrigation water selling

system the respondents were to pay the full water charge irrespective how much less water

the respondent actually used. Thus, benefit of the technology went to the management of the

irrigation installation. Secondly, benefit of the technology in one or two field using AWD in

the command area could not be effectively assessed, because lateral seepage from the

adjacent field not using AWD influenced root zone water in the demonstration plot. These

two issues might be taken care of in the next phase. Usefulness of a pilot programme

applying the technology over the entire command area might be assessed.’ Hence, the

adoption of this technology largely depends on water market reform through introduction of

water charges based on usage quantity.

Among the CIG farmers who cultivated Boro only 16.56% were informed about AWD’s

water frequency and cost saving features. Only 15.92% of the Boro growing CIG farmers

adopted AWD. All of the adopters were using pipe, indicating adopters’ sufficient level of

Page 83: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

70

understanding about the technology. According to the AWD adopters, they were able to

reduce irrigation cost in Boro season by 55.19% through adopting this technology (Table

3.16).

3.4.4 Costs and Returns from Other Crops

Per farm cost and return from Aus rice, wheat, mustard and lentil are estimated and presented

in Table 3.9. From methodological perspective, it is necessary to mention that number of

growers for these four crops did not fulfill the large sample criterion, and hence the results

here are at best indicative of the trend. Instead of per hectare analysis, farm level analysis is

done for the same reason. For all the four crops, the CIG farmers have higher production and

return. The CIG farmers get higher return by bearing higher cost. Most notable difference is

observed between CIG and non-CIG farmers in case of wheat and mustard (Table 3.17).

CIGs were established to disseminate technology. The second column of the Table 3.18

shows average number of farmers adopted. The T. Aman and Boro are the most successful

technology in terms of number of CIG farmers reporting dissemination and average number

of adopters.

3.4.6 Seed Source

A major component of the RYMG technology is to enhance use of quality seed at farm level.

Farmers were trained to produce and select quality seeds. In the T. Aman season, the CIG

farmers were mostly relying on own production (48.91%) and BADC (36.96%) for seed.

Very few CIG farmers used seeds from open market (11.43%) and informal sources

(neighbor, 1.09%). The control farmers in the season were mainly relying on own seed

sources (54.55%). Compared to that of CIG farmers, proportion of control farmers using

BADC seed in T. Aman season was negligible. In Boro season, proportionate distribution of

both categories of farmers according to seed source is similar. The quantitative data here do

not argue for much success in encouraging farm level seed production (Table 3.19). But the

messages from qualitative data indicate that the situation may improve. During the FGD and

KII, both the farmers and agricultural officers mentioned that farmers are now more capable

producing quality seed which is reducing their dependency on market. Even if they purchase

seed from external sources they can now more efficiently identify quality seed. Some farmers

are even replacing BADC seed by their own seed.

3.4.7 Insect/Pest Management Practices

Compared to the CIG farmers, the control farmers rely more on chemical practices for

controlling the pest and insect attacks. Among the CIG farmers, 53.21% and 62.91% practice

only IPM technology in T. Aman and Boro season, respectively. Another 39.10% and

30.60% practice combination of both IPM and chemical management in T. Aman and Boro

season, respectively. In both the seasons relatively lower proportion of control farmers

practice IPM. Proportion of farmers following only chemical pest management practices is

high in the group of control farmers (Table 3.20).

3.4.8 Changes in CIG Farmers’ Land Area and Productivity

CIG farmers’ land use and productivity from different crops increased after joining CIG.

While joining CIG, on an average a farmer was cultivating T. Aman, Boro and Aus in

124.12, 140.19 and 107.25 decimal of land, respectively. After joining CIG, the area has

increased in these three seasons. Productivity has also increased in the three seasons, and the

increases are statistically significant. Productivity increases are 24% for T. Aman, 29% for

Boro, and 27% for Aus (Table 3.21). These are very large gains and if can be sustained and

replicated all over Bangladesh, would push the country in a very big way towards sustained

food security.

For the other crops the sample size did not fulfill the large sample criterion, and hence the

results are at best indicative of the trend. The most notable increase in land quantity occurred

for mustard (233%) and wheat (41%). Productivity increases were most notable for brinjal

(44%) and tomato (20%) (Table 3.21).

Pond number and area under fish production

After joining fisheries CIG, the farmer’s number of operational pond and area has increased

significantly. While joining CIG, a farmer had 1.72 ponds with a size of 101.87 decimals. At

present a CIG farmer has 2.48 ponds. The pond area for them is 194.47 decimals. Compared

to the control farmers, the CIG farmers have notable better status in terms of pond number

and area. The CIG farmer’s pond area is more than three times higher than the control

farmers (Table 3.22).

Management practices

Pond management practice of the sample fish farmers are presented in Table 3.23. According

to the table, CIG farmers follow better management practices than the control farmers. CIG

farmer’s management practices improved after joining CIG. Among the sample CIG farmers

92% reported to make their pond completely weed free, whereas earlier only 34% did so.

This practice was followed by half of the control farmer. The proportion of farmers

destroying catfish is 88% and 45% for the CIG and control farmers, respectively. Before

joining CIG only 40% were destroying catfish. Significant differences are observed in use of

lime and fertilizer. Almost all the CIG farmers used lime (98%) and fertilizer (90%) in their

ponds, whereas less than half of the farmers were using lime (44%) and fertilizer (40%)

earlier. Proportion of lime and fertilizer users in the group of control farmers are similar to

CIG farmer’s earlier situation.

Differences also exist incase of fingerlings sources. At present, private hatcheries are the

major source of CIG farmer’s fingerlings (92%). Earlier also private hatcheries were their

major source, though the proportion of farmers collecting fingerlings has increased notably.

Around 30% of the CIG farmers have shifted from open sources to private hatcheries. Open

sources are still the major fingerlings supplier to the control farmers. The findings of the table

clearly show that CIG farmers follow much better management practice than the control

farmers. Before joining CIG, these farmers had similar practices to those of the control

farmers (Table 3.23).

Yield and return from carp poly-culture

The CIG farmers has much higher per hectare production and return from their ponds than

the control farmers. The CIG farmer’s productivity has increased by more than 80% after

joining CIG and the change is significant. Gross return from each hectare for the CIG farmers

is 457674 tk, which is 30% higher than their counterparts (Table 3.24).

Carp poly-culture technology dissemination by the CIG farmers

Among the sample fisheries CIG farmers, 84% reported that other farmers become interested

about the technology by visiting their production unit. On an average around 8 adopted the

technology from each CIG farmer (Table 3.25).

3.4.10 Impact of Dairy Cow Farming and Beef Fattening

Number and average value of cows

Several interesting phenomenon can be observed from the Table 3.26. After joining CIG,

number of both local and cross breed dairy cows has decreased. Decrease is more incase of

local breed. Average value of local breed has also decreased, but average value of cross breed

cows has increased by almost 50% than earlier. Such differences indicate that though the CIG

farmers are rearing fewer number of cows than earlier, they are more concentrated with high

value cross breed. Differences in CIG and control farmer’s practices are supportive to this

argument. Compared to the control farmers the CIG farmers have fewer number of local

breed which are relatively cheap. But the situation is opposite for of cross breed.

Compared to the control farmers, the CIG farmers have more number of both local and cross

Lactation period

Rearing of improved breed and better management practices have resulted in higher lactation

period for the livestock CIG farmers. Increase in lactation period is more incase of cross

breed. In case of cross breed lactation period has increased by almost 30% than earlier,

whereas the increase is around 6% for the local breed. Compared to the control farmers, the

CIG farmers have around 30% and 11% more lactation period for local and cross breed,

respectively (Table 3.28).

Milk production

As like average lactation period, the CIG farmer’s milk productivity is also higher than the

control farmers. The average milk productivity for the CIG farmer’s local breed is 2.95

liter/cow/day and this is around 24% higher than what the control farmer’s production. Milk

productivity for cross breed is 8.50 liter/cow/day and 7.59 liter/cow/day for the CIG and

control farmers, respectively (Table 3.29).

3.5 Annual Expenditure Pattern for the CIG and Control Farmers

Table 3.31 presents annual expenditure pattern for the sample households. Among the CIG

farmers, the fisheries CIG farmers have highest annual expenditure (356 thousand tk)

followed by the crop CIG farmers (284 thousand tk) and livestock CIG farmers (232

thousand tk). Annual average expenditure for all the three categories of CIG farmers is higher

than their counterparts who were not members of CIG. Highest difference is observed

between crop CIG and control farmers. The crop CIG farmers have around 28% higher

annual expenditure than the control farmers. Food expenditure is the major cost component

for all the groups, constituting at least one third of the total annual expenses (Table 3.30).

1% level, respectively (T-test is used).

One may note here that the previous PCU (NATP) survey came up with much lower

expenditure figures for the CIG and the control group part of which may perhaps be

explained by the inflation and part probably due to productivity and hence income increases.

The pattern of distribution however remains roughly the same as broadly half of the

expenditures were due to food expenses.

3.6 Supply Chain Development Component

Supply Chain Development Component (SCDC) is being implemented by the Hortex

Foundation. The main focus of this component was to integrate small and marginal producers

of high value commodities (crops/horticulture, fisheries and livestock) with the market

through supply chain development. Out of 120 upazilas under NATP, SCDC covers 20

upazilas (one upazila in one district).The project sites and beneficiaries (CIG members) were

selected in collaboration with the 3 extension agencies (DAE, DLS & DOF).Small and

marginal farmers were selected for high value commodity production and marketing. Some

“Commodity Collection and Marketing Centers (CCMC)” were established.

Hortex Foundation signed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with two commodity

trading companies to support farmers-market linkages and marketing the products. Thirteen

demonstrations on new post-harvest technologies like, washing, grading, packing (plastic

crates), etc. were established for assessment of post-harvest loss that benefiting CIG members

by reducing post-harvest loss. SCDC assisted four entrepreneurs to come under

agency/retailers contract with the supplier company for sex-pheromone and establishment of

carp hatchery for genetically pure seed production and fish feed mill for quality feed

production. More than 60 training courses, seminars and workshops on improved production

and post-harvest technology and management practices were organized involving over 6000

participants during the period.

The Supply Chain Development Component (SCDC) as one of the components of this project

is implemented by Hortex Foundation since October 2008. It covers 20 upazilas namely

Comilla Sadar, Chandina, Savar, Bogra Sadar, Shibgonj, Mirsarai, Belabo, Shibpur, Jessore

Sadar, Jhikorgacha, Parbotipur, Sreemongal, Delduar, Kapasia, Kaliakoir, Birgonj, Pirgonj,

Boraigram, Singra, Trishal, under thirteen districts. The development objectives of this

component are to integrated small and marginal farmers agro business enterprise into modern

supply chain by promoting more equitable change governance and market linkages of high

value agro commodities such as fruits, vegetables, flowers, milk, meat and fish. The project

works through Common Interest Group (CIG) in 20 Upazilas and each group compromises of

20 farmers. This component works in close co-operation with the Department of Agriculture

Extension (DAE), Department of Livestock Services (DLS) and Department of Fisheries

(DOF) under the Project Co-ordination Unit (PCU). Major activities of the component

include (a). Increase productivity of targeted commodities, (b) Improvement of post-harvest

management to reduce loss, (c) Strengthening farmer market linkage, (d) Knowledge

management of the difference stock holders, (e) Promotion of contract/ group farming, and

(f) Development of entrepreneurs.

Though officially the SCDC component started its activities on 25 March 2008, but actually

activities had been started from October 2008 after joining of the experts and release of fund

from IDA in August 2008.

The Team selected 4 upazilas at random (Jhikergacha, Delduar, Belabo and Pirganj) had been

under 20 upazilas for supply chain improvement. The team conducted Key Informant

Interview (KIIs) with farmers involved in the process.

By conducting interviews with CIG farmers and service providers, the team observed that

SCDC organized trainings, seminars and workshops, exposure visit focusing improved

production, postharvest technology and market management. SCDC assisted CIG farmers for

marketing products through CCMCs .Hortex also organized training on pre-cooling, sorting,

grading, washing, disinfecting, peeling, slicing, postharvest treatment, packaging and

transportation.

The team identified program for beef fattening in Pirganj, beef fattening, brinjal, lemon and

papaya in Belabo, beef fattening and lemon in Delduar and flowers in Jhikorgacha

upazilas.Some technology has been developed by SCDC experts and introduced in those

upazilas. SCDC provided training to chain partners, conducted demonstrations to reduce

postharvest losses. Different demonstrations were conducted in farmers' field on post harvest

technologies. To collect the agricultural produces in common place and to attract the city

bound agricultural commodity traders for coming to buy the CIG commodities, SCDC

assisted establishment of CCMCs and SCDC made linkage for marketing CIG commodities

to big cities. Major findings/observations have been summarized as follows:

Supply chain supports to improve livelihoods of the beneficiaries

The sustainability of the progress and impact that Hortex made will be ensured with

adequate funding

Producer organizations are not functioning everywhere

CCMC services are not available for all the CIG members in an upazila.

CCMC, farmers and traders linked with each other has been developed

81

Recommendations

More CCMC is needed to provide production and marketing facilities

Hortex can organize seminars/consultation meetings involving producers

organizations and entrepreneurs to develop a better linkage with CCMCs

Regular farmers’ trainings are needed

3.7 Conclusions and Recommendations

On the whole the analysis shows that the NATP’s process of farmers’ group formation, its

functioning and technology dissemination process may have worked quite well. Participants’

feedbacks about different NATP activities are encouraging. But some of the programmes and

activities of NATP are found to be more concentrated with the CIG farmers. Efforts are

required for increasing participation in programmes like fair and exhibition. Here it is

noteworthy to mention that technology distribution is found to be more successful with

farmers who participate in different NATP programmes. Hence initiative should be taken to

increase frequency and coverage of different NATP activities.

NATP has resulted in higher productivity as most farmers adopted better farming technology.

The NATP technology recipient farmers produce more and earn higher profit compared to the

control farmers. The final outcome could be in terms of higher expenditure capacity although

the food still accounts for half of the total.

From what has been discussed and analysed here, NATP can be considered a good case for

replication all over the country, although the exact element of a particular technology may

vary from place to place.

There are certain concerns regarding the lack of funds for additional works that the SAAOs

carry out under NATP. This is a very time-intensive project and activities under say FIAC

while these need to be further extended can not be done well with the limited allocations for

incidentals that are provided. The real issue is to make NATP experiences and output and

outcome sustainable when the project ends. It is towards that the NATP may need to be fine-

tuned.

CHAPTER 4

PROCUREMENT

The Project has seven Implementing Units: (i) Project Coordination Unit (PCU), Ministry of

Agriculture, (MOA) (ii) Project Implementation Unit (PIU), Bangladesh Agricultural

Research Council (BARC), (iii) Project Implementation Unit (PIU), Department of

Agriculture Extension (DAE), (iv) Project Implementation Unit (PIU), Department of

Fisheries (DOF), (v) Project Implementation Unit (PIU), Department of Livestock Services

(DLS) (vi) Krishi Gobeshona Foundation (KGF) and (vii) Hortex Foundation (Hortex).

4.1 Procurement Management (2008-2009)

National Agricultural Technology Project (NATP): Phase-1 had RADP allocation of BDT

234976 thousand for the financial year 2008-09 for procurement of goods, repair &

renovation works and services (Table 4.1). PIU- DAE had the highest allocation of BDT

65416 thousand followed by PIU- BARC BDT 47040 thousand. The Implementing Agencies

(IAs) prepared annual procurement plans which had no objection from the World Bank (WB)

and approved by the relevant HOPE. The procurement activities were also included in the

annual work plan which was approved by the Project Steering Committee (PSC).

In total, NATP had 198 packages (for goods 93 pkgs., works 5 pkgs. and services 100 pkgs.).

The number of packages of individual IAs has been shown in Table 6.2. The procurement of

one cross country vehicle for each of PIU-DAE, PIU-DLS, PIU-DOF and KGF, one

microbus for KGF and one car for PIU-BARC was completed. The extension components

procured motorcycles (PIU-DAE 95 nos., PIU-DLS 99 nos. & PIU-DOF 95 nos.), bicycles

(PIU-DOF 950 nos.) and computers (PIU-DAE 95 nos., PIU-DLS 87 nos. and PIU-DOF 95

nos.) for upazilas, districts and head quarters. PIU- BARC procured 28 computers for 11

NARS institutes and for PIU office at BARC. Computer and office furniture were also

procured by other components for the use at their offices. Besides, photocopy machines, fax

machine, IPS, multimedia & speakers (PA systems) and air coolers etc have also been

procured by extension components as well as by other components for their office uses.

In terms of expenditure, PIU-DAE could utilize BDT 65342 thousand out of BDT 65416

thousand from their RADP (99.89%). PIU-DLS and PIU-DOF could spend BDT 21454

thousand (86%) and BDT 26946 thousand (77%) from their available fund in RADP BDT

24840 thousand and BDT 34900 thousand, respectively (Table 4.1). Fund utilization by other

components was also satisfactory. In total, NATP: Phase-1 could utilize BDT 144939

thousand (62%) out of RADP fund BDT 234976 thousand (Table 4.1).

services (Table 4.2). They did not have any package for works. PIU-DLS also had 100%

success in completion of goods procurement. The overall progress of procurement of all

components was 51%.

PCU could not make procurement as it did not have man power neither at expert level nor at

staff level. Project Director joined on 15 January 2009 and was running the official work

alone. He made good progress in recruiting experts and procurement of some goods although

the process could not be completed in FY 2008-2009. The process of recruiting 3 experts and

2 assistant experts were near completion and waiting for signing of contract agreement.

During the fiscal year 2008-2009, implementing agencies did not have adequate man power

from the project and GOB. Though fund was released first time in September, 2008, still the

progress of procurement was satisfactory.

4.2 Procurement Management (2009-2010)

The project had RADP allocation of Tk. 3476.87 lakh for FY2009-2010 for procurement of

goods, works and services (Table 4.4). The Implementing Units (IUs) of the project prepared

annual procurement plans for their procurement. The World Bank after reviewing gave 'no

objection' to those plans and the respective Head of Procuring Entity (HOPE) of IUs

approved the plan. The Project Management Committee (PMC) oversaw and the Project

Steering Committee (PSC) finally approved those. Unit-wise RADP allocation and

achievements are briefly described bleow.

Page 98: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

For procurement, the project had 88 packages for goods, 19 packages for ks and 60 packages

for services for all NATP units. The IUs completed the procurement of 77 packages of goods

(88%), 19 packages of works (100%) and 38 packages of services (63%). Altogether,

procurement of 134 packages (80%) was completed against the target of 167 packages. For

all these procurement Tk 1927.55 lakh (55%) was spent out of the RADP allocation of Tk.

3462.77 lakh (Table 4.3). Major saving in procurement was because of price of actual

procurement was less than the estimated cost, and also the CDVAT allocated for Cross

Country Vehicle of PCU procurement could not be spent as this vehicle procurement was

rescheduled for next financial year.

4.3 Procurement Management (2010-2011)

Progress of Procurement of PCU

In the annual procurement plan of 2010-2011, there were 9 packages for goods, one package

for works and 11 packages for services. Procurement of 8 packages of goods (89%), one

package of works (100%) and 7 packages of services (64%) were completed. Procurement of

equipment and software for ICT & MIS, was on progress. Overall achievement of

procurement was 76%.

Goods procured in the FY 2010-11 were one cross country vehicle, one TV, 2 digital

cameras, 3 packages of stationeries, one package of printing materials, hiring of 2 firms and 5

individual consultants.

Progress of Procurement of All Implementing Units (2010-2011)

The project had allocation of Tk 1124 lac in RADP for financial year 2010-2011 for

procurement of goods, works and services. Tk 619 lac was spent out of allocated fund Tk

1124 lac. The expenditure was 55% of the RADP allocation. Major saving of procurement

was because of actual procurement price was less than the estimated cost.

The Implementing Units (IUs) of the project prepared annual procurement plans for their

procurement having 60 packages for goods, 9 packages for works and 38 packages of

services (Table 4.5). IUs completed the procurement of 55 packages of goods (92%), 8

packages of works (89%%) and 25 packages of services (66%). In total, out of 107 packages

of procurement 87 packages (88%) of procurement was completed (Table 4.5).

PIU- DAE, PIU-DOF, and KGF completed procurement of all packages (100%). PCU

completed procurement of 16 packages out of 21 packages (76%), PIU-DLS completed 11

packages out of 15 packages (73%), Hortex Foundation completed 11 packages out of 12

packages (92%) and PIU-BARC completed 15 packages out of 24 packages (62%) (Table

4.5).

PIU-DAE utilized the highest amount of RADP fund (98%) for procurement followed by

PIU-DOF (82%) and PCU (81%). Utilization of RADP fund for procurement of PIU- BARC

was the lowest (29%). The overall progress of procurement was satisfactory (55%) for NATP

(Table 4.6).

4.4 Procurement Management (2011-2012)

NATP had 59 packages for procurement in the financial year 2011-2012 (Table: 4.7). There

were 43 packages for goods, 14 packages for services and 2 packages for works. Out of these

packages, procurement of 41 packages of goods (95%), 12 packages of services (86%) and

one package of works (50%) was completed. ADP allocation was Tk 1363.64 lakh for

procurement. There were Tk 1163.41 lakh for procurement of goods, Tk 200.45 lakh for

services and Tk 7.00 lakh for works. The major allocation, US$ 707,645.00 and Tk

1,74,98,891.00 was for procurement of ICT and MIS equipment. The equipment procurement

was completed and was distributed to BARC and 7 NARS institutes (BARÍ, BRRI, BJRI,

BSRI, SRDI, BLRI and BFRI). Those are functioning normally.

Although physical progress of procurement (93%) was satisfactory the financial progress

(55%) was not up to the expectation (Table 4.7 ). Delay in submission of bill for ICT and

MIS equipment by supplier and requirement of long time to complete procedure for hiring

firm and tender value being less than estimated value were reasons for less expenditure than

allocated ADP fund.

The implementing units PCU, PIU-DAE, PIU-DOF and Hortex had 100% achievement in

goods procurement, PCU and KGF had 100% achievement in service procurement and KGF

had 100% achievement in works procurement. The financial progress (more than 90%) of

PIU-BARC, PIU-DAE and PIU-DOF for goods procurement was also satisfactory. The

financial achievement of PIU-BARC was low as it could not hire its 2 targeted firms and

could not complete civil works for one targeted package.

The financial targets increasingly met-62 % in 2008-09, 83% in 2009-10; 88% in 2010-11

and 93% in 2011-12.

In case of BARC, There is a financing agreement between GoB and IDA regarding the

BARC act. As amendment of BARC Act is a prerequisite for SPGR funding by the World

Bank. Once the amendment of BARC Act is approved and its forms and substance are

accepted by the World Bank, proposals will be processed for final approval and funding For

BARC, No withdrawal shall be made for payments made prior to the date of agreement

(Dated February 28, 2008) and unless the Receipient’s Cabinet has approved the amendment

of the BARC Act(which was approved on March 8, 2012), in form and substance acceptable

to the Association and the closing date is December 31,2013.

4.5 Procurement Management (2012-2013)

Project Coordination Unit (PCU) had 15 packages for goods, 7 packages of services and one

package of works for procurement in the FY 2012-2013 (Table 4.8). PCU completed

procurement of 15 packages of goods (100% achievement), 6 packages of services (86%

achievement) and one package of works (100% achievement) within June, 2013. The

estimated cost was Tk 265 lakh for goods procurement, Tk 125 lakh for services and Tk 5.97

for works for PCU (Table). The actual expenditure was Tk 213.30 lakh (81%) for goods, Tk

67.68 lakh (54%) for services and Tk 5.02 lakh (84%) for works. Actual cost was lower than

estimated cost for goods and works as bid value was lower than the estimated cost. The lower

expenditure than the estimated cost for services was because the expert could not be hired

within scheduled time.

Implementing Units (IUs) including PCU had 112 packages for procurement for the FY

2012-2013 of which 74 packages were for goods, 12 packages for works and 26 packages for

services. PIUDAE, PIU-DOF, PIU-DLS, KGF and Hortex completed procurement of all of

their 50 packages (100% achievement) scheduled to be procured in the FY 2012-2013 (Table

5.20). PCU completed procurement of 22 packages out of 23 packages (96% achievement).

PIU-BARC had 39 packages for procurement in the annual procurement plan for FY 2012-

2013 of which bids have been invited for 30 packages (80% achievement) and procurement

was completed for 13 packages (33% achievement) (Table 4.9 ).The unit is taking extra

efforts for speeding up their process of procurement

NATP had allocation of Tk 7082 lakh for procurement of which Tk 5343 lakh was for goods,

Tk 1074 lakh for works and Tk 665 lakh for services (Table). Financial achievement for

procurement was 100% for DOF, 94% for PCU and 93% for DLS. KGF and Hortex had 72%

and 51% respectively financial achievement in procurement. Total NATP had 40% financial

achievement for procurement which was low. PIU-BARC had Tk.2919 lakh allocation for

procurement out of which it could spend only Tk 269 lakh ((9% achievement) and PIU-DAE

had allocation of Tk 2846 lakh out of which it could spend only TK 1467 lakh (52%

achievement). Low financial achievement of PIU-BARC and PIU-DAE was the reason for

low financial achievement of NATP

4.5.2 Progress in MIS (Management Information System) Development

The two members of Procurement Core Team (PCT)- Independent Technical Expert (ITE)

and Independent Procurement Expert (IPE), MIS consultant of PCU and the Director of

Computer and GIS of BARC are closely working in development of MIS at BARC and

NARS institute. A MIS consulting firm named Joined venture of TechnoVista Ltd and

Southtech Ltd has been hired for developing 9 modules at BARC and 7 NARS institutes

(BARI, BRRI, BJRI, BSRI, SRDI, BLRI and BFRI). PCT is closely supervising and

overseeing the progress of development of MIS work along with the MIS consultant of PCU.

BARC and 7 NARS institutes received ICT and MIS equipment. The equipment has been

distributed according to the need of MIS development. In few cases those have been

distributed as per need of the institute without hampering MIS activities. The firm has started

developing modules of MIS and it is expected that the work to be completed by November,

2013. Equipment for ICT and MIS were distributed to BARC and 6 NARS institutes (BARI,

BRRI, BJRI, SRDI, BLRI and BFRI). BARC and Institutes are using those equipments.

4.5.3 Activities of Procurement Core Team (PCT)

Procurement Core Team met in 2 meetings during the year 2012-13. It submitted 5th and 6th

reports to the World Bank (WB) and Chairman of Project Steering Committee (PSC). It

visited 7 Implementing Units (IUs) of NATP and 20 SPGR sub-projects at BRRI and BARI

two times. It was observed that IUs and Sub-Projects were doing procurement following PPR

2008 and WB guidelines. In few cases it was observed that there were some deviations in

following PPR 2008 and WB guidelines. IUs and Sub-Projects were pointed out those

deviations and advised not to make such deviations again. As a frequent visit of PCT to IUs

and Sub-Projects it seemed that a very few mistakes were made by IUs and subprojects

during procurement.

Independent Technical Expert (ITE) and Independent Procurement Expert (IPE) procured 15

packages of goods (100% achievement), 6 packages of services (86% achievement) and one

package of works (100% achievement) for PCU. Procurement of PCU was one of the major

functions of ITE and IPE as members of PCT.

CHAPTER 5

SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

5.1 The Evaluation Process

The IMED has entrusted the evaluation of NATP Phase 1 to the BIDS. The ToR includes 11

objectives for detailed evaluation. Part of the ToR relates to the process of the project

including procurement, part on processes in the field (technology generation, CIG formation

etc) and the rest on output (such as productivity increases) and outcomes (better income and

expenditure capacity). Part of the methodology thus related to examination and analysis of

secondary data to be obtained from various institutions involved in project implementation.

The rest of the methodology involved generation data from the field based on quantitative

and qualitative methods. A sample of 300 CIG and 150 control farmers were chosen for the

purpose and an extensive questionnaire was used for the survey. In addition, first hand

qualitative data were generated using FGDs among farmers, extensive consultation with

officials both in the field and the headquarters of the organisations involved.

An Inception Report was submitted and later revised based on comments received. The

present report is following the revised Inception Report that had been approved earlier by the

IMED.

5.2 Findings and Recommendations

5.2.1 SPGR and KGF-based research

From the detailed analysis of SPGR and KGF-based research (see Chapter 2), one can

conclude that the research effort had been quite successful as they go, with better

achievements in some fields compared to others. However, it appears that most studies have

had limited goals and their general applicability in terms of technology developed remain to

be further investigated. Secondly, the difference in the two strands of research is not always

obvious. SPGR should have broad based goals while KGF-sponsored research may be more

focused which these generally are. A third issue that came up but not specifically probed was

the long time needed in proposal submission, verification, award, grant release seem to be

Page 108: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

95

rather long while the actual research time may be comparably short for understanding the

sustainability of the technology developed or tested.

Based on these the team recommends the following:

Both SPGR and KGF sponsored research should be programme based for general

applicability, some progress has been made by focusing on hill and coastal ecosystem which

should be further carried forward

Because of nature of transformation from project to programme, multi-year, larger research

ideas should be developed

SPGR should concentrate more on research for broad-based applicability and may have

somewhat different perspectives than KGF’s CGP which is oriented more towards

applicability of existing technologies

The pre-award time of verification etc may be reviewed for shortening the process.

5.2.2 Procurement

There had been substantial procurement under the project made by the constituent

organisations. While one finds that goods and works have been procured, albeit with some

delays in the initial years, this has picked up well in later years. But for services there still

remains some bottlenecks for which these have lagged somewhat.

The other issue was the transparency and whether government and development partners’

guidelines for procurement were followed. Available information on these are still sketchy.

For example while one gets information on planned and actual packages procured and money

spent, there is hardly any easily available information on number of bids, their shortlisting

based on technical proposals and proposed cost. While the involved institutions do claim to

have followed the PPR 08 in this regard, there is no obvious and easy way to verify such

claims. The evaluation team checked package files and examined at random basis sample

procurements of different implementing units of NATP. On paper, there seems to adherence

to guideline from development partner as evident from World Bank’s no objection letters as

well as to Govt. guidelines

Page 109: Impact Evaluation Study of “National Agricultural ...office.mcc.com.bd/bids/uploads/Impact Evaluation Study of NATP.pdf · have also benefitted immensely from our discussions with

96

Based on the nature of findings on procurement, we make the following tentative

recommendations:

For monitoring purposes we suggest that the format of reporting should have information on

number of bidders, the number of short-listed bids according to technical merit ranking and

their proposed costs and the final winner of the bid as well as the value of the bid. There

should be a column stating reasons of deviation from initial proposed costs as well as reasons

if the bid ranked first has not been chosen.

5.2.3 Farm household impacts

On the whole we find that the NATP’s process of farmers group formation, its functioning

and technology dissemination process through training may have worked quite well (for

details see Chapter 3). These resulted in higher productivity as most farmers had adopted

better technology particularly in case of rice but also in case of cash food crops. The result

had been a surging of household income as for T. Aman, the rise in income per farm in T.

Aman production had been about 30%, much of it due to productivity increase. For boro, it

was nearly 40%. For other crops the rises were also noticeable. The final outcome could be

in terms of higher expenditure capacity although the food still accounts for half of the total

From what has been discussed and analysed, one sees a good case for replication of the

NATP experiences all over the country, although the exact element of a particular technology

may vary from place to place.

There are certain concerns regarding the lack of funds for additional works that the SAAOs

carry out under NATP. This is a very time-intensive project and activities under say FIAC

while these need to be further extended can not be done well with the limited allocations for

incidentals that are provided. The real issue is to make NATP experiences and output and

outcome sustainable when the project ends. It is towards that the NATP may need to be fine-

tuned.
