The increased availability of high-quality seeds is expected to contribute to ’enhanced agricultural production’. Outputs Indicators Baseline Target Achieved Percentage of smallholder farmers using 5% 25% Not reported improved seeds Number of new varieties released - 50 47 (94%) The verification means to assess progress on these outcomes were mentioned to be: 1) Baseline survey and impact study, 2) Seed component progress reports, and 3) Trial reports. Only the progress reports (2) have been produced. Whereas a total of 10 output indicators have been monitored (and some even in detail per crop), two out of three outcome indicators have not been monitored and reported. The implication is that the impact of this component on agricultural production cannot be assessed in a quantitative way, but only qualitatively. In terms of outputs, the achievements have been 168% for the production of pre-basic seeds (21.2 tons produced) and 111% for basic seed production (173.4 tons produced). Rationale The Result Component 1 “support to the seed sector” has been implemented by FAO in 17 districts in five provinces. The component has focused on 1) strengthening the institutional and policy framework, 2) the introduction and multiplication of improved varieties, and 3) improvement of seed production by small-scale producers. The budget of the component was € 1.592.429 according to the 2016 addendum. The 2017 USAID study on the Mozambique seed sector identified about 10 programmes to support the seed sector, including Feed the Future, AGRA, InovAgro, SEMEAR, ISSD, etc. The FAO documentation and half- yearly reports mention that they are collaborating with a number of them in particular in the Institutional Strengthening element of the RC 1. The FAO documents do not fully analyse the specific role and contribution of FAO in relation to the other stakeholders in the national seed sector, but it is clear that its role is complementary and intends to avoid duplications. However, it is difficult to assess what the unique contribution of FAO has been to the strengthening of the seed sector. Furthermore, there has been some overlap with other projects and programmes; for instance the SDC supported InovAgro project worked with seed companies and agro-dealers in 11 districts of three northern provinces including four covered by FAO (Gurué, Alto Molocué, Ribaué and Malema districts); Feed the Future and SEMEAR also have an overlap with regard to target districts. Main achievements (whenever possible comparing to indicators) The main achievements of this result component (RC 1) “support to the seed sector” are assessed to be the following: Seed institutional and policy framework. In the context of MDG1c FAO has been one of the technical and financial partners to contribute to the strengthening of the seed institutional and policy framework. In close collaboration with relevant donors (USAID/ Feed the Future, AGRA, SDC/ InovAgro) support has been provided to the strengthening of the institutional and policy framework of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security MASA/DINAS. As FAO has been one of the partners closely collaborating with and providing assistance to the National Seed Department of DINAS, it is not possible to attribute the achievements only to FAO; but the Ministry through the DINAS director asserted that the contribution of FAO to the seed sector institutional strengthening was substantial. In the first place, the support to the alignment with SADC’s Harmonised Seed Regulatory System (HSRS). This harmonisation is essential to ensure that the quality of Mozambican seeds meets international standards. Support to the National Seed Department of DINAS included amongst others of training on seed quality control, an important element in the seed sector. A second element of FAO’s institutional support (technical advice and financial support) has been its contribution – together with other stakeholders - to the establishment of a National Seed Dialogue Platform in which the National Seed Department, private sector 2 seed producers and other relevant partners are represented. The National Platform mainly serves to exchange information related to the seed sector between parties involved. FAO also provides support to the Association to Promote the Seed Sector, APROSE (FAO finances its executive secretariat). FAO further contributed to the operationalisation of the private sector seed inspector’s model, in particular the training and accreditation of inspectors. Two national studies on the seed sector and one regional study have been produced with support of FAO/ MDG1c: 1) a study of June 2016 analyses the seed market, in particular the source of seeds being used; and 2) a recent study of June 2019 undertaken by APROSE has analysed the share of subsidized and free seed distribution by government, NGOs and FAO, and 3) a study on the seeds markets in the Zambézia and Nampula provinces of June 2018. All three studies give a good (qualitative and quantitative) overview of the seed sector in Mozambique indicating that the use of certified seeds is increasing but that preserved own local varieties are still the main source of seeds.

  • A Landscape Approach to Elephant Conservation in Mozambique
    A landscape approach to elephant conservation in Mozambique by Cornélio Pedro Ntumi Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Zoology) in the Faculty of Natural and Agricultural Sciences University of Pretoria Pretoria February 2012 i © University of Pretoria A landscape approach to elephant conservation in Mozambique Student: Cornélio Pedro Ntumi Supervisor: Professor Rudi J. van Aarde Conservation Ecology Research Unit Department of Zoology & Entomology University of Pretoria Pretoria 0002 rjvaardezoology.up.ac.za Co-supervisor: Dr Sam M. Ferreira Scientific Services South African National Parks Skukuza 1350 South Africa Degree: Doctor of Philosophy (Zoology) ii Abstract People and elephants share landscapes throughout Mozambique. Here elephant conservation management focuses on protected areas but fails to address the conflict that exists between elephants and people. In this thesis I develop a landscape approach to conflict mitigation that is designed to accommodate the needs of people and of elephants in human-dominated landscapes. Mozambique faces a dilemma: politically it is required to reduce poverty while at the same time adhere to international agreements and requirements to protect biodiversity with relatively scarce financial resources. Reactive mitigation of human-elephant conflict (HEC) at the site-specific scale have proven to be costly and with low efficacy. A shift from reactive to proactive HEC mitigation approaches at the county-wide scale (e.g. a district level, the administrative planning body) may provide opportunities to reconcile such apparent contrasting requirements in Mozambique. The elephant population of Mozambique is fragmented and remnant sub-populations are limited to clusters of protected areas in a matrix of human-dominated landscapes.

  • 21 January 2004
    Famine Early Warning Systems Network 21 January 2004 Highlights o Rainfall has been well below normal in much of central and southern Mozambique this season, raising fears of a third consecutive drought year. o In addition, temperatures have been above normal, increasing evaporation rates and reducing soil moisture. o A district-by-district rainfall analysis shows that rainfall totals in much of central and southern region are below 50% of normal for the period. Eastern Inhambane and Gaza Provinces are the worst affected areas with shortfalls ranging from 17 to 29% of normal. In meteorological terms, less than 75% of normal rain over an extended period is considered a drought. More than half of the country meets this definition at present. The effects on agriculture depend on when crops were planted and how much longer the rains continue. o The poor rainfall has already affected agriculture in most of the southern region, where rains start earlier. The first planting has failed in much of the southern region, and households had to replant at least once. The amount of rainfall in January and February will determine whether these second and third plantings will succeed. o In the provinces of Manica, Sofala, and Tete crops are showing signs of marked stress, but because the season starts later and lasts longer in these areas, most plants could recover if substantial rainfall occurs in January and February. Some rains are forecast for mid-January in the central regions. o River and dam levels in areas south of the Save River are below both last year (a drought year) and the longer-term average.

  • MULTI-SECTORAL LOCATION ASSESSMENT ROUND 2 Mozambique - Cabo Delgado April 2021
    MULTI-SECTORAL LOCATION ASSESSMENT ROUND 2 Mozambique - Cabo Delgado April 2021 22,329 IDP 25 assessed sites 88,704 IDPs households Focus Group Discussion (FGD) in Naschitenje temporary site, Naschitenje locality in Mueda district DTM activities are supported by: MOZAMBIQUE: CABO DELGADO MULTI-SECTORAL LOCATION ASSESSMENT - ROUND 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This Multi-Sectorial Location Assessment (MSLA) report, which presents findings from the International Organization for Migration’s (IOM) Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) Round 2 assessments, aims to enhance understanding of the extent of internal displacements and the needs of affected populations in conflict-affected districts of Mozambique’s Cabo Delgado province. The report covers the period from 13 to April 23 2021 and presents trends from 25 assessed sites hosting internally displaced persons across eight districts in Cabo Delgado. In total, 88,704 internally displaced persons (IDPs) or 22,329 households were mapped living in sites assessed during this MSLA. Reported figures, however, exclude displaced individuals living in host community settings. According to DTM Round 11 Baseline, as of March 2021 an estimated 630,241 IDPs were identified in Cabo Delgado. Sites under assessment in this report included relocation centers, temporary or transit centers, and host community extensions as classified by Camp Coordination Camp Management (CCCM) cluster. Given the active and fluid nature of displacement trends in Northern Mozambique, it is important to note that the number of sites or locations with displaced IDPs exceeds the estimated number of sites assessed for this round. The MSLA included an analysis of sector-wide needs, including shelter and non-food items (NFIs), water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH), food and nutrition, health, education, livelihoods, protection, community engagement and energy.
