The loan was cldomd on December 31, 1989, three years behind schedule. Only US$ 7.99 million were diobtirsedand an amount of SDR 806,437 (US$ 1.05 million) was canceled. The PCR was prepared by the Agricultural Operatlons Division of the Sahelian Department of the Africa Region. The Borrower did not prepare its part tf the PCR (1I), although it had been requested to do so. Preparation of this PCR is based, inter alia, on the Staff Appraisal Report, the President's Report, the credit agreement, supervision reports, correspondence between the Bank and the Borrower and between the Bank and Cofinancers, and internal Bank memoranda. - iii - PROJECT COMPLETIONREPORT REPUBLIC OF SENEGAL FORESTRYPROJECT (Credit 1103-SE) EVALUATIONSUMMARY Objectives 1. The Senegal forestry project was designed against a background of rapidly degradingnatural forests in the areas around Dakar and in the groundnut basin. Recognizingthe environmentaland economic threat posed by the rapid destruction of the natural forest cover, the Senegalese Government developed a forestry master plan which aimed at renewing and expanding natural sources of fuel and service wood without further depleting natural forests. To help implement the plan the Government requestedBank assistancefor a ro-Aforestation and natural forest management project. 2. In line with the Government's forestry plan, the project aimed at increasingthe supply of fuelwood and other forest products to the urban center of Dakar and the rural areas in the groundnutbasin. Specificproject objectives were (a) the establishmentof 2,000 ha of state-managedtree plantations;(b) the creation of 1,500 ha of rural family and 1,500 ha of rural community tree plantations; (c) improvement in management and productivity of 10,000 ha of natural forests; (d) financing of applied forestry research relevant to the project area, and (e) strengtheningof .he Forestry Department'splanning and management capacity through the establishment of a training center and a planning, monitoring and economic studies unit. ImRlementationExperience 3. The project was appraised in April 1980 and approved in February 1981. Project start-up was slow. After three reschedulings the project became effective with a year's delay, in July 1982. The original closing date of December 1986 was postponed three times and the project closed on December 31, 1989. Two years into project implementationit became clear that lower-than- expected rainfall and soil conditionsunfavorable to the productionof the fast growing, but exotic EucalyptusCamaldulensis, would not allow attainmentof the expected results in plantations. The projectwas thereforereoriented away from pure production objectives toward the reconstitution and protection of the natural vegetativecover in the forest reserves of the project area. Except for chronic financial problems, project implementation was satisfactory after reorientation. Results 4. The project failed to achieve the original productionobjectives, but it also generated a number of benefits which are not directly quantifiable. These include advances made in the development of techniques to reconstitute the natural forest cover in the Sudano-Sahelianzone; excellenttraining of forestry - iv - techniciansand extensionworkers, and the developmentof an innovativeapproach to engage the rural population in ruralreafforestation and soil management. 5. After the initial failura of the state-managedEucalyptus plantations, project activities focussed on replanting unsuccessful Eucalyptus plots with lower yielding, but more resistant local species, and on enriching depleted natural forests with bands of local species. About 1300 ha of local species were planted in full stands and 2,154 ha of natural forests were enriched. 6. Although rural forestry Eucalyptus plantationswere more successfulthan state-managed plantations (mainly due to better soils in the lowlands), the project increasinglymoved away from planting a maximum number of hectares with high yielding species toward teaching the rural population how to produce and protect trees and appreciate their

  • Livelihood Zone Descriptions
    Government of Senegal COMPREHENSIVE FOOD SECURITY AND VULNERABILITY ANALYSIS (CFSVA) Livelihood Zone Descriptions WFP/FAO/SE-CNSA/CSE/FEWS NET Introduction The WFP, FAO, CSE (Centre de Suivi Ecologique), SE/CNSA (Commissariat National à la Sécurité Alimentaire) and FEWS NET conducted a zoning exercise with the goal of defining zones with fairly homogenous livelihoods in order to better monitor vulnerability and early warning indicators. This exercise led to the development of a Livelihood Zone Map, showing zones within which people share broadly the same pattern of livelihood and means of subsistence. These zones are characterized by the following three factors, which influence household food consumption and are integral to analyzing vulnerability: 1) Geography – natural (topography, altitude, soil, climate, vegetation, waterways, etc.) and infrastructure (roads, railroads, telecommunications, etc.) 2) Production – agricultural, agro-pastoral, pastoral, and cash crop systems, based on local labor, hunter-gatherers, etc. 3) Market access/trade – ability to trade, sell goods and services, and find employment. Key factors include demand, the effectiveness of marketing systems, and the existence of basic infrastructure. Methodology The zoning exercise consisted of three important steps: 1) Document review and compilation of secondary data to constitute a working base and triangulate information 2) Consultations with national-level contacts to draft initial livelihood zone maps and descriptions 3) Consultations with contacts during workshops in each region to revise maps and descriptions. 1. Consolidating secondary data Work with national- and regional-level contacts was facilitated by a document review and compilation of secondary data on aspects of topography, production systems/land use, land and vegetation, and population density.

  • SÉNÉGAL Rapport Spécial
    SENEGAL Special Report August 31, 2015 Poor start to the agropastoral season in central and northern areas KEY MESSAGES This year, farmers are resorting to short-cycle varieties of cowpea and Souna millet crops more than usual as a strategy to limit the negative effects of the late start of the rains on crop production in order to ensure near-average crop yields. With the likely downsizing of the land area planted in groundnuts, Senegal’s main cash crop, household incomes between December and March will likely be below average. The poor pastoral conditions between February and June severely affected pastoral incomes, which have been well below-average as a result of the decline in animal production and livestock prices. The larger than usual numbers of animal deaths have adversely affected the livelihoods of pastoral households, limiting their food access on local markets. However, the recent recovery of pastures and replenishment of watering holes have helped improve the situation in many pastoral areas. Food assistance from the government and its humanitarian partners is easing poor households’ food insecurity. Humanitarian food and non-food assistance and cash transfer programs will limit the use of atypical coping strategies (ex. borrowing and reducing food and nonfood expenditures) by recipient households. An examination of food prices on domestic markets shows prices for locally grown millet still slightly above-average and prices for regular broken rice, the main foodstuff consumed by Senegalese households, at below-average levels. However, despite these prices, the below-average incomes of poor agropastoral households is preventing many households from adequating accessing these food items.

  • DECRET N° 2009-13 Du 16 Janvier 2009 Fixant Le Nombre De Conseillers De La Ville Par Commune D’Arrondissement Dans Les Régions De Dakar Et Thiès
    DECRET n° 2009-13 du 16 janvier 2009 fixant le nombre de conseillers de la ville par commune d’arrondissement dans les régions de Dakar et Thiès. [|RAPPORT DE PRESENTATION|] Les conseillers municipaux de la ville sont élus pour moitié au scrutin de liste proportionnelle à un tour sur listes complètes sans panachage ni vote préférentiel l’autre moitié étant composée de conseillers provenant des communes d’arrondissement. Conformément aux dispositions du Code électoral, chaque commune d’arrondissement dispose au minimum de deux sièges au conseil municipal de la ville dont celui du maire de la commune d’arrondissement qui est de droit conseiller municipal de la ville. Des sièges supplémentaires sont attribués par décret en fonction de la population de la commune d’arrondissement. Les sièges sont attribués aux conseillers municipaux d’arrondissement élus au scrutin majoritaire dans l’ordre de leur inscription sur la liste à concurrence du nombre de sièges dont dispose la commune d’arrondissement au conseil municipal de la Ville. Les calculs opérés révèlent une certaine homogénéité dans l’affectation des mandats de conseillers de la ville. C’est le cas notamment à Dakar et Pikine où le nombre assez élevé de communes d’arrondissement et la faible disparité démographique, entre elles, font que presque toutes les communes d’arrondissement vont se retrouver avec le strict minimum de conseillers à désigner. Par contre à Guédiawaye, Rufisque et Thiès, où le nombre de communes d’arrondissement est relativement plus faible, la distribution du nombre de conseillers devant siéger au conseil de la ville révèle des représentations assez fortes.

ABSTRACT Objective: This work has examined the current state of woodlands in the groundnut basin to determine its importance Methodology and results: The floristic diversity of woodlands in the Groundnut Basin of was studied through ecological parameters. The woody flora contained 75 species with a predominance of three (3) families (Combretaceae, Mimosaceae and Caesalpiniaceae) represented by more than six (6) species. The statements from the four targeted rural communities indicated: 31 species for Ndiognick, 43 for Birkelane, 46 for Saly Escale and 48 for Ida mouride. The overall average density was 17 individuals/ha and varied depending on rural communities: 7 individuals/ha for Ndiognick, 9 individuals/ha for Birkelane, 18 individuals for Ida mouride and 39 individuals for Saly Escale. In Ndiognick and Birkelane rural communities, the cover was lower because they were less provided in species ( Cordyla pinnata, Combretum glutinosum, Piliostigma reticulatum and Adansonia digitata ) with summits higher than 5m 2/ha.
