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.

  • Impact Evaluation Design for Mozambique-MCA
    Impact Evaluation Designs for the Mozambique-MCA Land Project: Improving Site-Specific Access to Land Activity in Urban and Rural Areas (Activities III), and the Institutional Strengthening of the Land Administration System (Activities II) Submitted to the Millennium Challenge Corporation By Michigan State University (MSU) and the Ministry of Agriculture Department of Economics (MINAG-DE) Songqing Jin, Mywish Maredia, Raul Pitoro, Gerhardus Schultink, and Ellen Payongayong October 11, 2016 ABSTRACT: The Land Tenure Services Project (or simply the “Land Project”) of the Mozambique MCA compact aims to establish more efficient and secure access to land by improving the policy and regulatory framework and helping beneficiaries meet their immediate needs for registered land rights and better access to land for investment. The Land Project consists of three main types of activities (Activities I, II and III) and several component activities that will be implemented at different levels of geopolitical aggregation (i.e., national, provincial, District, Municipal, “hot spots” areas, etc.). The Michigan State University (MSU) was contracted by MCC to evaluate the impacts of different activities under the Land Project. Specifically, MSU is responsible for evaluating the activities that can be rigorously evaluated, namely, the activities that allow us to establish valid treatment and control groups. This document lays out three separate evaluation designs that evaluate different activities under the Land Project. They include (1) evaluation of the institutional strengthening activity (Activity II) which involves upgrading land administration system in selected municipalities and districts, (2) evaluation of the ‘hot spots’ (or site-specific) activities (Activity III) in urban areas and (3) evaluation of the ‘hot spots’ activity (Activity III) in the rural areas.

Multi- Scalar Governance Sixteen years following Mozambique’s independence in 1975 and civil war (1975-1992), the government of Mozambique began to decentralize. The Minister of State Administration pushed for greater citizen involvement at local levels of government. Expanding citizen engagement led to the question of what role traditional leaders, or chiefs who wield strong community influence, would play in local governance.1 Last year, President Filipe Nyusi announced plans to change the constitution and to give political parties more power in the provinces. The Ministry of State Administration and Public Administration are also progressively implementing a decentralization process aimed at transferring the central government’s political and financial responsibilities to municipalities (Laws 2/97, 7-10/97, and 11/97).2 An elected Municipal Council (composed of a Mayor, a Municipal Councilor, and 12 Municipal Directorates) and Municipal Assembly are the main governing bodies of Maputo.

Photo by Stefano Gasparini This paper was prepared under contract with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). The positions and opinions presented are those of the author alone, and are not intended to represent the views of FAO. Examining access to natural resources and linkages to sustainable livelihoods The Livelihood Support Programme The Livelihood Support Programme (LSP) evolved from the belief that FAO could have a greater impact on reducing poverty and food insecurity, if its wealth of talent and experience were integrated into a more flexible and demand-responsive team approach. The LSP works through teams of FAO staff members, who are attracted to specific themes being worked on in a sustainable livelihoods context. These cross-departmental and cross-disciplinary teams act to integrate sustainable livelihoods principles in FAO’s work, at headquarters and in the field. These approaches build on experiences within FAO and other development agencies. The programme is functioning as a testing ground for both team approaches and sustainable livelihoods principles.

Ms. Dengo was identr is a candidate for graduate study in Agricultural Economics through the MSU Food Security in Africa Cooperative Agreement, and her studies were financed by AFGRAD (currently ATLAS). Ms. Dengo utilized the Nampula Smallholder Survey data set and conducted original analysis which we believe sheds light on the important issue of rural development both on and off the farm in Mozambique. With the eventual coming of peace, rural off-farm development will take on ever greater importance for the welfare of rural residents. We offer this thesis in unedited form in order to make a timely initial contribution to the debate in Mozambique on how best to promote rural off-farm development, and how to balance farm based with broader rural development projects. Like any serious work, this thesis raises as many questions as it answers. It should therefore be taken only as an opening of this debate and as a useful guide for important further research which needs to be done. r NATIONAL DIRECTORATE OF AGRICULTURAL ECONOMICS Working Paper Series The working paper publication series is designed to provide users with timely research results while refinements and longer term synthesis are completed, and final reports are available.
