Not for Redistribution - 3 - ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL PLAN EVALUATION 2004 ________________________________________________________________ I. INTRODUCTORY NOTE This evaluation was conducted during the final year of the Government's Five- Year Programme, 2000-2004. As recommended in the 2004 Economic and Social Plan document, this evaluation has been structured differently from previous evaluation reports in order to: (i) improve the consistency and coherence of the various planning instruments, and; (ii) monitor and evaluate the implementation of PARPA, an important instrument in the Government's strategy to reduce absolute poverty. The present document is divided into five main chapters: International Overview, National Social and Demographic Overview, National Macroeconomic Overview, Principal Developments by Sector and Budget Execution. This was a year in which public sector reforms were continued and consolidated. There was notable growth in social and economic infrastructure. There are signs that the Mozambican economy is continuing to grow at the planned rate, inflation is under control and the Metical appreciated strongly. The Government was able to honour its budget execution commitments, channelling more resources into sectors prioritised in the PARPA and keeping budget execution rates within the limits set in the budgetary legislation. ©International Monetary Fund. Not for Redistribution - 4 - ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL PLAN EVALUATION 2004 ________________________________________________________________ II. INTERNATIONAL OVERVIEW With an estimated 5% growth rate (compared with 3.9% in 2003) the world economy expanded significantly in 2004. According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) this rate is one of the highest that has been registered in the last 30 years. Growth is largely a result of the performance of the North American and Asian economies, particularly those of Japan and China. Latin America also showed signs of recovery while African economies performed relatively well. However, increases in the price of oil caused economic growth rates to slow from the third quarter of 2004, particularly in the USA, Japan and China. In mid-August a barrel of oil cost 44.7 USD while at the end of the year the price fluctuated between 45 and 50 USD per barrel. In the coming months, the greatest risks will continue to be linked to the behaviour of oil prices (even though inflation is relatively low and stable) and the pressure that the price of oil will exert on interest rates. Interest rates tended to rise in the second half of 2004, following the movements of the United States Reserve Bank. The fiscal deficits of advanced economies continued to be a problem in 2004. These economies as a whole presented a fiscal deficit of 3.4% of Gross Domestic Product in 2004. The United States of America The GDP of the USA is estimated to have grown at a rate of 4.4% in 2004, compared with 3% the previous year. During 2004, the Federal Reserve Bank increased interest rates (federal funds) five times in the second half of the year to 2.25% as a method of controlling inflation in the face of strong economic growth. In 2004, private consumption and investment, whether by residents or non- residents, was relatively strong, considering that interest rates were relatively low throughout the year. The external sector was strong, particularly in the area of imports. Industrial production, at 4.4%, was higher than the previous year. The unemployment level in December was 5.4% (compared with 5.7% in 2003). The Dollar depreciated throughout the year in relation to the most important currencies, particularly the Euro. The principal problem facing the North American economy continues to be the double deficit: fiscal and external. These debts, accompanied by changes in the price of energy, could affect the available income of families. This in turn could lead to almost non-existant levels of savings that would have implications on future consumption and the behaviour of the

Background of the Study In tropical savannah areas located at the north part of Mozambique, there are vast agricultural lands with constant rainfall, and it has potential to expand the agricultural production. However, in these areas, most of agricultural technique is traditional and farmers’ unions are weak. Therefore, it is expected to enhance the agricultural productivity by introducing the modern technique and investment and organizing the farmers’ union. Japan has experience in agricultural development for Cerrado over the past 20 years in Brazil. The Cerrado is now world's leading grain belt. The Government of Japan and Brazil planned the agricultural development support in Africa, and considered the technology transfer of agriculture for Cerrado development to tropical savannah areas in Africa. As the first study area, Mozambique is selected for triangular cooperation of agricultural development. Based on this background, Japanese mission, team leader of Kenzo Oshima, vice president of JICA and Brazilian mission, team leader of Marco Farani, chief director visited Mozambique for 19 days from September 16, 2009.

Anaemia is a public health problem in mothers and preschool children in Mozambique and up to 40% of these cases are probably due to dietary iron deficiency. The World Health Organization (WHO) and Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) recognize the fortification of foodstuff as an effective method to remedy dietary deficiencies of micronutrients, including iron. Cassava mahewu, a non-alcoholic fermented beverage is prepared at subsistence level from cassava roots using indigenous procedures. The aim of the study was to standardize mahewu fermentation and investigate if the type of cassava fermented, or the iron compound used for fortification affected the final product.

From February through March, most of the south is Stressed! (IPC Phase 2!) while most of the central semiarid zone is in Crisis (IPC Phase 3) as the lean season ends. In these areas, the 2020/2021 harvest beginning in April, will improve food security outcomes to Stressed (IPC Phase 2) or Minimal (IPC Phase 1). Households impacted by tropical storm Chalane and cyclone Eloise face Stressed (IPC Phase 2) and Crisis (IPC Phase 3) outcomes, with affected households likely to recover through post-flood production if they have enough seeds to replant. In Cabo Delgado, the conflict is continuing to drive displacement and Crisis (IPC Phase 3) outcomes. • Following a rapid increase in confirmed COVID-19 cases and deaths since January 1, 2021, the government has tightened containment measures, including implementing a 9 pm to 4 am curfew for the greater Maputo area.
