Every IFC project includes results measures, E.g. Agribusiness Finance Advisory…

IFC agri advisory projects are beginning to undertake cost/benefit analysis…COST/BENEFIT PROCESS STEPS1. IDENTIFY and QUANTIFY the project’s

DIRECT and INDIRECT BENEFICIARIES.2. ESTIMATE quantity of OUTPUT PRODUCED. 3. ESTIMATE total UNITS of CULTIVATION.4. ESTIMATE COSTS of INPUTS with & without

project.5. ESTIMATE PRICES of OUTPUTS with & without

project. 6. ESTIMATE NUMBER of BUYERS and their MARKET

SHARES, with & without project.7. IDENTIFY (a) PROJECT-RELEVANT FACTORS, and

(b) EXTERNAL FACTORS that may affect productivity, costs, prices, and other considerations, with & without project.

8. COLLECT these DATA at the BASELINE (at project-start), and THROUGHOUT program IMPLEMENTATION. Cost/Benefit analysis gives a better sense of who benefits

and whether farmer incentives are likely to align…

IFC has also undertaken a number of detailed evaluations of its agri work

China: New Hope for Dairy Farmers. July ‘08Ukraine: Vinnytsya Dairy Supply Chain Project. July ‘07

India: Farm Forestry program. December ‘06Indonesia: Seaweed Program Survey. July ‘06

Findings have beendistilled into easy to read “Monitor” notes

IFC is developing an M&E “Toolkit” for agri supply chain projects with farmers

Terms of Reference for M&E Toolkit• Work with IFC and its external partners to

produce an M&E framework covering keyareas of IFC agri supply chain project work - productivity, standards and access to finance

• Develop an approach to “baseline” survey instruments

• Be consistent with IFC M&E structures• Develop clear performance measures to help

clearly gauge project success• Articulate a process for measuring impact on key

project stakeholders/beneficiaries at the farmer level

Partners to IFC project work see M&E as a key value added

IFC is using peer & specialist review of new projects to share lessons learnt…

Selected Lessons Learnt• Farmer access to finance is often a constraint

(…and requires specialist input/support…) • During design identify specific market failures

(…gain detailed market knowledge…)• Costly to scale up and expand projects that

deliver farmer specific information (…plan for expansion in advance…)

• Net farmer incentives to join supply chainproject are not always clear and need to align (…otherwise redesign or kill the project…)

IFC now more systematically draws together local needs with global knowledge and lessons learnt…

So, how does M&E help small farmers?

• Better target overall sector support (not just farmers)• Track and so help increase finance to sector (inc.

farmers)• Better assess whether projects provide net farmer

benefits• Learn from and improve ag advisory (inc. to farmers)• Stop “weak” agri projects so funds might be re-

applied• ID projects with “strong” results to drive partner

uptake
