Executive summary This report provides details of the implementation progress achieved by the Extensão Multimédia project during the Y2, covering a period of October 2016 to September 2017. Progress was made in the following areas: • The project continued to facilitate the provision of extension services through the 321- service and participatory radio programs. • Through the 321-service, the project disseminated agricultural information which included material related to improved technologies and good agricultural practices of SSTP promoted crops, including a technical manual for extension officers. The agricultural messages are in three local languages, namely Portuguese, Macua, and Changana. • The 321-service has also hosted dynamic information, including market pricing and information relating to other agricultural products and services available for smallholder and emerging farmers. The source of the pricing information is the national Agriculture Market Information System (SIMA), whereas the agricultural service component includes contents from public and private sector organizations who disseminated promotional information regarding their products and services. During this reporting period dynamic information was disseminated from 17 organizations in different categories (e.g input providers, finance services, output buyers, mechanization services and among others). • The project trained and supported two community radio stations, namely Ribaue and Alto Molocue. The partnership with Ribaue radio station had a duration of 6 months (March to August 2017) and broadcasted agricultural programs focusing on the maize value chain. For Alto Molocue radio station, the partnership lasted 4 months (May to August 2017) and focused on broadcasting good agricultural practices (GAP) related to cassava. During the partnerships, both Ribaue and Alto Molocue radio stations broadcasted a total of 35 episodes. During this time, a survey conducted by the project to assess the use of provided ICT services indicates that: • ICT services reached to 688,435 farmers, constituting 83% of the Y2 cumulative target (825,000). The project failed to reached its targets because a late start of the radio component meant that it worked with only 02 (out of 04) of the expected radio stations in the until Y2. Page 4 of 28 A New Alliance for Food Security and Nutrition Project funded by USAID’s Feed The Future, UK Aid, and IFAD. • A total number of 139,920 smallholder farmers have engaged with the ICT services, constituting 50% of Y2 target (281,250). The project was not able to reach its targets not only because it could not work with the total number of expected radio stations, as indicated above, but also due to lower number of users of the 321-service due to the fact that most of farmers have are still not aware of the system. Another important factor is the limited Vodacom mobile phone service in the rural community, which reduced the number of farmers with access to the 321-platform. • Despite a lower than expected use of the 321 service and radio programs, the project was able to exceed its target in terms of number of farmers applying at least one of the good management practices promoted. A total 115,335 smallholder farmers have applied at least one of the promoted technologies, corresponding to 151% of the target (76,250). This may be a result of two main factors: 1) the design and dissemination of appropriate content for smallholders, including dynamic information from a range of agribusiness organizations, and 2) the provision of significant field support that leveraged existing CLUSA field staff from other projects, who supported and encouraged farmers to implement the practices. • The number of hectares under the improved technologies was 116,507ha, corresponding to 611% of the target (19,063). The over achievement of this target is due in part to the fact that the project overachieved in terms of the number of smallholder farmer applying improved practices (as indicated in 1.3). In addition, the increase was partly a result of the fact that the CLUSA managed survey showed an average farm size of 1ha as opposed to the original assumption (upon which the original target was based) or 0.25ha. Note, however, that even using the original assumption of 0.25ha per farmer the project still would have exceeded this target. • A total of 95% of the costs of ICT-enabled services has been covered by non-donor sources, corresponding to 479% of the target for Y2 (20%). The over achievement of this target is due in part to the fact that the project had assumed that Vodacom would only contribute with free 321-service (SMS, USSD, IVR). Actually, Vodacom donated more than expected - it also promoted the 321-service by sending promotion SMS to all Vodacom subscribers and sponsoring the launch event of 321 service.

Introduction This report relates to the progress achieved by the Extensão Multimédia project during Year 2 of the project (October to September 2017, or the 2016/17 agricultural season). It includes discussions on the major accomplishments during the reporting period, challenges and deviations for performance indicators in the MEL plan and planned activities for the next agricultural season. 2. Major impacts or accomplishments over reporting period During the Year 2 progress was made in the following areas: Project aligned with SSTP and national priorities through the DNEA. Year 2 was primarily focused on engaging with the National Directorate of Agrarian Extension (DNEA), resulting in the signing of an MoU between DNEA and Extensão Multimedia. This showed DNEA´s willingness to collaborate with the project on the preparation and harmonization of agriculture related messages and ensuring that the project is aligned with national priorities. DNEA also actively participated in the development of the agriculture contents by participating in the content committees and engaging with key agriculture stakeholders in the process of content design. Agricultural content available on the 321-platform The project prepared and made available the first batch of the agriculture content for the 3- 2-1 service. The information available is related to technologies and good agricultural practices for three SSTP promoted crops: cassava, maize and soybean, using three languages: Portuguese, Macua, or Changana. This means that since December 2016 smallholder farmers are able to engage with the 321-platform and learn about GAPs including land preparation, the use of certified seed, post-harvest practices and accessing output market, amongst other issues. The project also prepared and uploaded a job aid in a form of technical manual for extension officers. The manual is available in the 321-service in the form of IVR (voice message). The manual, which also focused on the same main three value chains (soya, maize and cassava) aims to reinforce extension workers’ existing knowledge and keep them up to date on new technologies and GAPs. Dynamic information In addition to GAPs, the project also uploaded and regularly updated dynamic information on the 321-system, which includes two main elements: 1) agricultural market pricing information and 2) promotional and other informative material. All material is updated every two weeks. Page 6 of 28 A New Alliance for Food Security and Nutrition Project funded by USAID’s

  • Angoche: an Important Link of the Zambezian Gold Trade Introduction
    Angoche: An important link of the Zambezian gold trade CHRISTIAN ISENDAHL ‘Of the Moors of Angoya, they are as they were: they ruin the whole trade of Sofala.‘ Excerpt from a letter from Duarte de Lemos to the King of Portugal, dated the 30th of September, 1508 (Theal 1964, Vol. I, p. 73). Introduction During the last decade or so a significant amount of archaeological research has been devoted to the study of early urbanism along the east African coast. In much, this recent work has depended quite clearly upon the ground-breaking fieldwork conducted by James Kirkman and Neville Chittick in Kenya and Tanzania during the 1950´s and 1960´s. Notwithstanding the inevitable and, at times, fairly apparent shortcomings of their work and their basic theoretical explanatory frameworks, it has provided a platform for further detailed studies and rendered a wide flora of approaches to the interpretation of the source materials in recent studies. In Mozambique, however, recent archaeological research has not benefited from such a relatively strong national tradition of research attention. The numerous early coastal settlements lining the maritime boundaries of the nation have, in a very limited number, been the target of specialized archaeological fieldwork and analysis only for two decades. The most important consequence has been that research directed towards thematically formulated archaeological questions has had to await the gathering of basic information through field surveys and recording of existing sites as well as the construction and perpetual analysis and refinement of basic chronostratigraphic sequences. Furthermore, the lack of funding, equipment and personnel – coupled with the geographical preferentials of those actually active – has resulted in a yet quite fragmented archaeological database of early urbanism in the country.

  • Part 4: Regional Development Plan
    PART 4: REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN Chapter 1 Overall Conditions of the Study Area The Study on Upgrading of Nampula – Cuamba Road FINAL REPORT in the Republic of Mozambique November 2007 PART 4: REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN Chapter 1 Overall Conditions of the Study Area 1.1 Existing Conditions of the Study Area The Study area consists of the two provinces of Niassa and Nampula. The total length of the Study road is approximately 350 km. In this chapter, overall conditions of the study area are described in order to prepare a regional development plan and to analyze economic, social and financial viability. The Nacala Corridor, which extends to Malawi through the Nampula and Niassa Provinces of Mozambique from Nacala Port, serves as a trucking route that connects northern agricultural zones with important cities and/or towns. In the rainy season, which is from November to April, the region has a high rainfall ranging from 1,200 to 2,000 mm. As the Study road is an unpaved road, it is frequently impassable during the rainy season, affecting the transportation of crops during this period. Looking at the 3 regions in Mozambique, results of the economic performance study conducted by UNDP over the period under analysis continue to show heavy economic concentration in the southern region of the country, with an average of about 47% of real production as can be seen in Figure 1.1.1. Within the southern region, Maputo City stands out with a contribution in real terms of about 20.8%. The central region follows, with a contribution of 32%, and finally, the northern region with only 21% of national production.

  • A Political Economy Analysis of the Nacala and Beira Corridors
    ecdpm’s Making policies work DISCUSSION PAPER No. 277 A political economy analysis of the Nacala and Beira corridors By Bruce Byiers, Poorva Karkare and Luckystar Miyandazi July 2020 While trade and transport costs in Africa are high, those faced in Malawi are higher than in the wider region. International partners are keen to invest in improving trade and transportation, with a view to promoting socio-economic development in the region, but trade and transport are highly political in both Malawi and Mozambique. This study maps out the different factors and actors that shape current use of the Nacala and Beira corridors connecting Malawi to the Mozambican coast. High-level political relations have fluctuated through time, and though cordial, do not provide a solid basis for improving efficiency along the Nacala rail corridor, with domestic priorities on both sides dominating cross-border cooperation. Thus far, Beira has emerged in Mozambique as the more efficient port serving Malawi and the wider region where state-business relations have aligned with political objectives. Nacala has been made efficient for coal exports but coordination for other trade is lacking, with political interests more geared towards a competition for control of rents. Mozambican road transporters have also the upper hand over Malawian transport, though the market is highly segmented for imports and exports and different goods. External support to improve efficiency will need to take account of the vested state-business interests round the ports and corridors, particularly in Mozambique, and rekindle multi-actor cross-border coordination mechanisms, ideally including different government bodies, private service providers as well as businesses engaged in exports/imports, and learning from past failures to coordinate better.
