The establishment of modern energy- and water-saving greenhouses accounts for 6.8% of the number and 11.4% of the total value of subloans, processing of horticultural products accounts for 14.9% of the number and 24.0% of the value of subloans, and refrigerated storage accounts for 38.5% of the number and 17.1% of subloans value. There is a broad distribution across the all regions. The largest concentration in terms of subproject numbers is in Samarkand (22 subprojects), Tashkent (21 subprojects), and Fergana (20 subprojects). In subloan value terms, Tashkent ($29.6 million), Samarkand ($21.5 million), and Sirdarya ($16.2 million) are the largest regions (are the regions with the highest amount). Overall, the average subloan size is (equal to) $0.935 million. By region, average loan sizes vary from $0.365 million in Karakalpakstan to $2.025 million in Sirdarya. By subproject category, average subloan sizes range from $0.414 million for refrigerated storage to $2.060 million for Agricultural machinery and other. A map of financed projects in regions of the Republic of Uzbekistan is dedicated in the picture 1 below.

For each sub-project, a State Environmental Expertise (SEE) was carried out on the basis of a draft EIS (Environmental Impact Statement) and obtained an approval of the Environmental Conclusions of the State Committee for Ecology and Environmental Protection. Control over observance of the requirements of environmental legislation at the enterprises of each sub-project is assigned to the regional department for ecology and environmental protection (depending on which region and district the particular subproject belongs to). During the monitoring, the PFIs check that each sub borrower meets the requirements of the ESMS in accordance with the national regulations and requirements of ADB.

Monitoring and reporting of the implementation of safeguards requirements and procedures wТtСТn tСe establТsСed ESMS are prepared by PFIs. TСe PFIs’ quarterly progress reports Тnclude status of compliance with safeguards covenants. The PFIs submit to RRA (the EA) annual ES performance reports (Appendix 8 of the ESMS in Report and Recommendations to the President of ADB (RRP) lТnked document 12) by tСe end of January every year. Based on tСe PFIs’ annual reports, Rural Restructuring Agency (RRA) submits to ADB annual Safeguard Monitoring reports (Appendix 9 of the ESMS) by mid-February of the following calendar.

1.3 Project organization and environmental management team, including organizational relationships with PFIs, sub-borrowers etc.

7. During the reporting period, the organizational structure had some changes. A project management office (PMO) has been set up under the existing organization of Rural Restructuring Agency. According to the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of UzbekТstan dated 21.11.2018 №940, tСe Agency for ТmplementatТon of projects Тn tСe fТeld of agroindustry and food security was established (UZAIFSA) on the base of RRA. The PMO is provided with highly qualified staff and operational costs and it is responsible for monitoring the project implementation, including training, capacity development, and providing technical support to PFIs. In order to save the cost of engaging a large team of consultants for project management and to ensure efficient utilization of the loan fund allocated to project management (estimated at USD 3.0 million). PMO staff included in-house UZAIFSA specialists.

At the same time each PFI has established a project implementation unit (PIU) under its existing structure to oversee the implementation of the credit line activities at the respective PFI.

In case if such inspection was not undertaken or is not undertaken in with appropriate level of rigor, the subborrower may be required to immediately repay to the PFI any disbursed funds and the PFI to repay such funds to MOF, in accordance with the terms of the SLA.

Part II Environmental issues

2.1. Environmental issues in the previous 12 months.

During the reporting period, the monitoring of subprojects was carried out by the UZAIFSA and PFI specialists who were specially trained and instructed in the framework of monitoring compliance of the Environmental Plan, labor and safety measures. The frequency of monitoring during conventional monitoring is as a rule, at least once every 6 months for projects with category "B". All inspections are documented in written form (Annex 8, template 3 with images supported - if necessary). All discrepancies observed in the past reporting period during the visit in 2018, have been significantly improved.

No major problems were identified during preparation, before and during construction. Household and sanitary standards for workers are currently being implemented or are being built, mainly in accordance with the standards and norms of the Republic of Uzbekistan.

Some non-compliance was observed during UZAIFSA site visits. Among them: untimely disposal of wastes from construction sites, not using of PPE by workers, non-satisfactory sanitarian conditions for dining facilities, solid and liquid waste, spills, garbage etc. After being notified, all non-compliances were eliminated.

Photographs of the site monitoring are given in Annex 2

No cases of non-compliances of requirements have been identified.

The nature and scale of impact on the environment is insignificant and cannot lead the quality of the environment to negative changes. 2.2. Explanations of instances in which environmental standards or guidelines were exceeded or environmental incidents happened

During the visits to the projects with refrigeration units in May of 2018, there were identified minor non-compliances, as: unsafe storage freon, garbage in cesspools, safety breach associated with the equipment of working personnel:

 LLC “Kungrad Vek Stroy”- insignificant irregularities were revealed as: unsafe storage of freon, garbage in cesspools, rules for warehousing and storage of building materials were not complied with.  LLC "Alisher Kipchak" - there was a smell from the activity on the territory.  LLC "Mirzakhmedov Ravshan" - non-satisfactory sanitarian conditions for dining facilities, and garbage in the cesspool. The beneficiary was obliged to clean the pit as soon as possible.

During the visits to greenhouses in June of 2018, it was observed:

 "Nukus Universal Base" LLC – a household garbage was observed in the project area.  "Mangit Invest Plus" LLC - it was observed that there was no personal protective equipment when using fertilizer. Warehouses needed more thorough cleaning. Disruption of safety related to personnel equipment. In order to manage pesticides properly, the beneficiary was obliged to hire an agronomist soon.  LLC "Sarbon Asl Savdo" - the company was scheduled on a contractual basis to use services for destruction of insects and plant diseases. In this connection, a warehouse construction for the storage of agrochemicals was not planned. The service on pesticide and herbicide management will be outsourced by beneficiary. Certified company will provide services in the use of pesticides, transportation and disposal. They were recommended to present a copy of the contract.

While visiting the sub-project on an ТntensТve garden, Тt was observed: “BaСt Imkon cСorvasТ” LLC: not organТzed storage of agrocСemТstry Тmproper СandlТng wСen usТng mТneral fertilizers and storage conditions of fertilizer. In this regard, the beneficiary undertook to hire a plant protection agronomist. The duties of the agronomist include working with chemicals for the destruction of pests, fungal diseases, pesticides, and the application of mineral fertilizers, compliance with safety regulations while working with agricultural chemistry, as well as the coordination with environmental and local authorities. The nature and scale of the environmental impact of all the above non-compliances are insignificant and cannot lead to negative changes in the quality of the environment. Recommendations for solving the above environmental problems are indicated in the paragraph 2.3. Prior to the implementation of any type of activity in the field of horticulture production, ESMS manager of eacС certaТn PFI’s Тnformed one by one all benefТcТarТes of tСe sub-projects on environmental and technical safety requirements. During the reporting period, any other issues related to noise and vibration, water and air quality have not been identified. There were no any accidents or emergency situation except a minor disruption. Complaints from nearby residential populations were not received. Environmental inspections are carried out by specialists of the district department for ecology and environmental safeguard in accordance with committee's internal environmental monitoring program. During the monitoring, the PFIs also checked the current environmental state of the sub-projects.

2.3. Recommendations are required to show how any exceedances will be prevented in the future.

Suggested recommendations for identified deficiencies in the sub-projects described above:

- improve the work on monitoring environmental protection and safety at construction sites and training workers and own personnel on environmental aspects, as well as conducting basic monitoring in accordance with the ZVOS.

- correct all the shortcomings and irregularities made during the work, tidy up collective protective equipment, clean the proper areas of rubbish, provide all workers with personal protective equipment, organize medical kits, equip electrical equipment and fire boards, organize safety and health nooks.

Keep all floors clean in the premises and prevent fertilizer from being carried by people or machines outside the project site Store each fertilizer in a separate container in a folding room or in a fixed place. The personnel must complete relevant training session or instruction.

Integrated methods of pest control with the rational use of both chemical and non-chemical methods of control.

It was also recommended to carry out activities aimed at ensuring the readiness of the object to actions to prevent, localize and eliminate the consequences of accidents or emergencies.

There were instructions, recommendations given to ensure healthy, and safety use of pesticides:

Wearing recommended protective clothing (long-sleeved shirt and trousers, socks, boots and gloves) in order to reduce exposure or skin contact;

• Chemically resistant shoes and gloves; • Use of safety glasses; • Use of approved respirators; • Stand on the windward side when using pesticides; • Avoid contact of food with pesticides; • When pouring pesticides, keep the container below eye level to prevent eye contact; • After handling pesticides, wash hands thoroughly with soap before eating or drinking;

It was clarified that timely disposal of waste, prevention of littering in the territory of projected objects will prevent negative impact on natural resources: soil, underground horizon. Part III: Compliance with ADB’s Social Protection Requirements and ADB’s Prohibited Investment Activities List

3.1 Provide assessment on these two sets of requirements.

ADB's requirements for social protection were met. According to the list of prohibited types of investment activities, a preliminary environmental screenings of social and safeguard measures were carried out. During of the project implementation, PFI specialists conducted a preliminary analysis (screening) of each sub-project with respect to social safeguard measures. “Among PFI’s experТence of rejectТon to fТnance several projects (project belongs to category B, however, the client did not present the required documents (state expert opinion, etc.); the client asked for funding the project of a poultry farm with more than 40 thousand hens,etc.) there is also experience rejection of the projects proceeding from the ADB’s ProСТbТted Investment ActТvТtТes LТst, for example, tСe clТent carrТes out actТvТtТes for the sale of alcohol. Prior to approval, subprojects were screened according to the following questions:

During the preliminary monitoring at the sub-project areas, all the above questions were answered (NO) confirming the absence of impact caused to Involuntary Resettlement, which in turn does not hamper the financing of sub-projects.

PFIs specialists discussed, explained and clarified to the subprojects owners of all the requirements for the environmental and social safeguard that they should comply with during the implementation of the subproject.

3.1. A brief description of the taken measures.

During the monitoring conducted by the RRA in October-November 2018, it was noted that the corrective measures recommended in May 2018 were almost completely implemented. On the current visit, no significant environmental impacts have been detected.

Below are the measures taken by beneficiaries in order to eliminate the inconsistencies identified during the visit in May 2018.

LLC “MangТt Invest Plus” workers are provТded wТtС workwear, sСoes and gloves.

LLC “Nukus unТversal Base” and LLC “MТrzakСmedov RavsСan” Тncreased tСe number of garbage bins for waste collection and garbage, as well as the frequency of area cleaning.

LLC “AlТsСer KТpcСak” – spoilt vegetables are stored in closed containers to prevent unpleasant odors.

During the reporting period, incidents and accidents were not observed in the projects areas.

Part IV: ESMS operations (for PFIs which are financing B-category subprojects)

4.1. A brief description of the effectiveness of the ESMS within 12 months.

According to paragraph 5 of Schedule 2 in Loan agreement between Republic of Uzbekistan and ADB dated 03.03.2017, no withdrawal shall be made from the Loan account for a PFI for the purposes of any qualified subprojects until such PFI has established the ESMS in a manner satisfactory to ADB and has appointed designated staff who is capable and adequately trained in fully implementing the ESMS.

For each sub-project, a State Environmental Expertise (SEE) was carried out on the basis of a draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and obtained approval Environmental Conclusions of the State Committee for Ecology and Environmental Protection. Control over observance of the requirements of environmental legislation at the enterprises of each sub-project is assigned to the regional department for ecology and environmental protection (depending on which region and district the particular subproject belongs to).

During the monitoring, the PFIs check that each sub borrower meets the requirements of the ESMS in accordance with the national regulations and requirements of ADB. During the project implementation period, none of PFIs did face to significant environmental problems for each sub-project. There were no any exceedances in the frame of established norms for the current subprojects.

ADB's requirements for social protection were met. According to the list of prohibited types of investment activities, a preliminary screening of social safeguard measures were carried out. All requirements are implemented based on the documents of the ESMS. Implementation of corrective actions was not required.

Guided by the agreement on refinancing of part of the ADB loan, Article VI, Section 6.01, paragraph (l) of the PFIs provided annual reports on the effectiveness of implementation of environmental and social measures. In this report, information should be provided by PFIs and responsible persons for the implementation of the ESMS. At the end of January 2018 and the beginning of February 2019, all PFIs provided to RRA annual reports on the effectiveness of environmental and social measures implementation. Based on the analysis of the submitted reports, it can be seen that the process of subprojects review and approval was carried out in accordance with the national legal and normative acts of the Republic of Uzbekistan. The risk categorization was implemented on the base of the screening for the presence of environmental and social risks under the legislation of the Republic of Uzbekistan and ADB requirements. All suprojects with category "B" passed pre-investment monitoring. Monitoring of environmental safeguard and social issues in the framework of sub loans was implemented particularly on a quarterly basis by the Bank staff. No issues related to social safeguard measures (land acquisition, individuals/commercials displacement, loss of income/livelihood) were observed. No cases of non-compliance of requirements have been identified.

Capacity building activities In order to increase the capacity, training sessions were organized in the framework of the project: - a seminar of ADB consultant Irakly Kavidadze (February 17, 2018); -a seminar of the Rural Restructuring Agency on environmental management for commercial banks (certificate of February 26, 2018) and other short-term seminars (trainings). - on April 19-21, 2018, ADB organТzed a “TraТnТng SemТnar and RegТonal ExcСange on MonТtorТng the Implementation of Environmental Safeguard Measures. TS 8663-Sustainable Environmental Management Projects in Central and West Asia" in Georgia. The workshop was aimed at environmental officers of project implementation teams (PIUs). Two members of RRA staff participated in this workshop. -presentatТon for PFI’s on tСe ТmplementatТon of envТronmental management and socТal Тssues was conducted by ADB Technical consultant Armine Yedigaryan, (December 10, 2018);

However, due to tСe PFIs’ staff turnover, Тt Тs necessary to conduct traТnТng for PFI Credit Specialists who consider the ADB sub-loan. Since sometimes there are difficulties in determining to which category of environmental risk the project belongs.

4.2. Specific data on the following activities is recommended

 Site inspections and audits – to summarize the number and type of site visits.

Monitoring was carried out on a quarterly basis during a year. Audits by the banks were conducted in March, June, November and December of the reporting period, and the RRA implemented it in March, June, November, December. Totally 137 financed sub projects have been inspected out of 162. Monitoring of remained and newly financed projects will be conducted in the next reporting period. Prior to the implementation of any type of activity in the field of horticulture production, all beneficiaries of subprojects were aware of environmental and technical safety requirements. To the present day, problems related to noise and vibration, water and air quality have not been identified. There were no any accidents or emergency situation. During the monitoring, the PFIs also checked the current environmental state of the sub- projects.

 Noncompliance case. Some non-compliance was observed during site visits. Among them: untimely disposal of wastes from construction sites, not using of PPE by workers, non-satisfactory sanitarian conditions for dining facilities, solid and liquid waste, spills, garbage etc. After being notified, all non-compliances were eliminated. Each subproject was provided with the recommendations on methods of storing waste and observing safety regulations. .  Corrective action plans. No corrective action plans were required
