Mission Objectives and Key Conclusions Background and Main Objective of the Mission Designed with the goal of contributing to the achievement of Nepal’s SDG 1 and SDG 2 targets by reducing poverty and nutrition insecurity amongst women and men in hill and mountain areas of Karnali State, the Agriculture Sector Development Programme (ASDP) is a joint initiative of the Government of Nepal (GoN) and the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD). The Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development (MOALD) of the Government of Nepal (GON) acts as the Lead Project Agency (LPA) of the Programme and implements programme activities in close cooperation and coordination with the State and Municipal (local level) governments as well as the private sector entities. ASDP’s total estimated cost of US$68.1 million is funded through: a loan of US$ 38.2million (SDR 27.2mn) and a grant of US$ 1.8mn (SDR 1.3mn) from IFAD, US$ 3mn from Swiss Agency for Development Cooperation (SDC) and rest by GON ($11.5 mn), programme beneficiaries (US$ 6.7mn) and the private sector (US$ 3.5mn). ASDP was approved by IFAD Board on 11 December 2017 and initial advance was disbursed in May 2019. A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed between MOALD and Helvetas-Nepal, on 11 December 2018 for supporting implementation of establishment of municipal agricultural development committees (MADCs) and pluralistic extension service under component 1.4. It is expected to be completed by 30 June 2024. This is the second supervision mission for ASDP. Its key objectives were to: (a) review overall progress made by the programme since the last supervision mission (23 September - 05 October 2019) also considering the contribution made by interim implementation support missions (23-31 July 2020), (b) review the annual work programme and budget (AWPB) for FY 2020/21 and implementation plan prepared by the programme management and provide comments and suggestions for finalising the plan and submitting to IFAD in the context of COVID-19; (c) review the performance of the programme management team, duly considering staff turnover and availability, in achieving programme outcomes and associated outputs and activities as stipulated in the design report; (d) review the M&E and MIS system put in place and provide guidance for further improvements; and (e) assess coordination and linkages mechanism put in place between/among three tiers of governments (federal, state and local) for a smooth and coordinated implementation of activities on the ground. This Program supervision mission came at a time when social distancing standards related to COVID-19 were in place, which the mission strictly adhered to using virtual platforms and other means of telecommunication. The mission led by Mr. Tarek Kotb, Country Director (CD), IFAD held a kick-off meeting on 4 September with MOALD which was chaired by Mr. Rajendra Prasad Bhari, Secretary and benefited from the participation of Dr. Rajendra Prasad Mishra, Joint Secretary, Dr. Rewati Raman Poudel, DG, Agriculture, Dr. Banshi Sharma, DG, Livestock, and Mr. Shankar Prasad Sapkota, Under Secretary, MOALD. This was followed by a briefing meeting on 6 September and verbal debriefing by the Mission on 15 September with the PCO. The Mission benefitted from a remotely held field visit programmes in Surkhet, Salyan and Jajarkot on 9 and 10 September. The Mission led by the CD shared key findings and recommendations with the programme team led by Mr. Bhoj Raj Sapkota, Programme Coordinator and PCO staff in a pre-wrap-up meeting held remotely on 21 September 2020. A final wrap up meeting with Government was held on 24 September 2020 under the chairmanship of Mr Rajendra Prasad Bhari, Secretary, MOALD with participation from the National Planning Commission and the Ministry of Finance and other key stakeholders. Key Mission Agreements and Conclusions While the Program is experiencing major delays in implementation, it has made some significant achievements since the last supervision mission, especially in reaching to 4,494 beneficiary households through value chain development. In this light, overall project performance is rated as moderately satisfactory. Following the joint review of the achievements on the ground with the PCO and the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development and the wrap-up meeting
