The key outcome indicators to assess achievement of the PDO are as follows: # At least 60% of the project beneficiaries report satisfaction on the selection, design, and implementation of project activities. # The project beneficiaries report an improvement in on- and off- farm income of at least 10% over the life of the project. Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project Objective? Yes Board Approved Revised Project Development Objective (If project is formally restructured)PHRPDODEL The AF focuses on institutionalizing and mainstreaming the socio-economic development planning approach in the broader planning andbudget allocation processes in the project area. The PDO will, therefore, be revised to capture this important element of the AF. Project Development Objective for the AF is revised to read: The Project Development Objective (PDO) is to enhance the living standards of the Project Beneficiaries by improving: (i) their access to productive infrastructure; (ii) the productive and institutionalcapacity of local governments and communities; (iii) commune integrated investment planning and (iv) market linkages and business innovations.

To date, the project has achieved the following results: 99.4% of infrastructure investments under sub-component 1.1 (169/170 planned packages and 83.2% of Commune Development Budget Component (CDBC) sub-projects (5,856/7,039 planned ones) have been awarded, in which 79% packages under sub-component 1.1 have been completed and 52.5% CDBC sub-projects have been completed. Agribusiness Productive Partnerships have also made solid progress and 30 partnership proposals have been endorsed and rolled out for implementation. There have been 759 training courses organized for 23,326 times of trainees, in which 68% is for CIG training classes. 2 . Progress with livelihoods development under sub components 2.2 and 2.3 is satisfactory but more emphasis must be placed upon CIG sustainability over the final year of the Project. For livelihood groups and sub-project, 9,470 CIGs have been profiled and monitored. Among them, 20.6% belong to Category 1 (most vulnerable group), 71.5% are in Category 2, and 7.9% are under Category 3 (better commercial performing groups). So far, 37.5% of the monitored CIGs have maintained their activities over more than 3 production cycles; 45% of the monitored CIGs have expanded their production scale, as compared to the first production cycle that the project supported with grants, and; 65% of CIGs are assessed as having satisfactory animal waste collection pits. This is a strong indication that these CIGs have been able to establish the momentum for further collective actions within, and among themselves, for sustainable livelihood activities. 3 . Disbursement Progress. The Project has disbursed approximately US$43.82 million to date (or 44.76% of the AF amount denominated in USD - which is about US$98.03 million as of June 15, 2017 due to changes in SDR/USD exchange rate). There has been an impressive disbursement amount of US$17.4 million achieved in the first half of 2017. 6/29/2017 Page 2 of 11 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Second Northern Mountains Poverty Reduction Project (P113493) 6/29/2017 Page 3 of 11 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Second Northern Mountains Poverty Reduction Project (P113493) 6/29/2017 Page 4 of 11 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Second Northern Mountains Poverty Reduction Project (P113493) Risks Systematic Operations Risk-rating Tool Risk Category Rating at Approval Previous Rating Current Rating Political and Governance  --  Moderate  Moderate Macroeconomic  --  Moderate  Moderate Sector Strategies and Policies  --  Moderate  Moderate Technical Design of Project or Program  --  Moderate  Moderate Institutional Capacity for Implementation and Sustainability  --  Moderate  Moderate Fiduciary  --  Moderate  Moderate Environment and Social  --  Low  Low Stakeholders  --  Moderate  Moderate 6/29/2017 Page 5 of 11 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Second Northern Mountains Poverty Reduction Project (P113493) Other  --  --  -- Overall  --  Moderate  Moderate Results Project Development Objective Indicators PHINDPDOTBL  An increase in per capita income among Project beneficiaries of at least 15% (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 12.00 12.00 15.00 Date 15-Nov-2010 01-Dec-2016 31-May-2017 30-Jun-2018 PHINDPDOTBL  At least 60% of Common Interest Groups (CIGs) have a sustained increase in their livelihood production assets (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 60.00 60.00 60.00 Date 30-Jun-2015 01-Dec-2016 31-May-2017 30-Jun-2018 Overall Comments Intermediate Results Indicators PHINDIRITBL  Travel time to farm production areas is reduced for at least 60% of farmers (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 60.00 60.00 60.00 Date 30-Jun-2015 01-Dec-2016 31-May-2017 30-Jun-2018 6/29/2017 Page 6 of 11 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Second Northern Mountains Poverty Reduction Project (P113493) PHINDIRITBL  At least 60% of households have increased the frequency of their visits to markets and farm inputs suppliers (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 60.00 60.00 60.00 Date 30-Jun-2015 01-Dec-2016 31-May-2017 30-Jun-2018 PHINDIRITBL At least 60% of women and ethnic minorities regularly participate in planning and decision making process (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 65.00 65.00 60.00 Date 30-Jun-2016 01-Dec-2016 31-May-2017 30-Jun-2018 PHINDIRITBL  At least 50 CIGs obtain formal status as collaborative groups ("To hop tac") (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 0.00 6.00 50.00 Date 30-Jun-2015 01-Dec-2016 31-May-2017 30-Jun-2018 PHINDIRITBL  Targeted clients satisfied with agricultural services (percentage) (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 82.00 82.00 80.00 Date 20-Sep-2012 01-Dec-2016 31-May-2017 30-Jun-2018 6/29/2017 Page 7 of 11 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Second Northern Mountains Poverty Reduction Project (P113493) PHINDIRITBL  Targeted clients satisfied with agricultural services - male (number) (Number, Custom Supplement) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 16,500.00 16,500.00 16,000.00 PHINDIRITBL  Targeted clients satisfied with agricultural services - female (number) (Number, Custom Supplement) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 45,000.00 45,000.00 44,000.00 PHINDIRITBL  Targeted clients- male (number) (Number, Custom Supplement) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 25,500.00 25,500.00 20,000.00 PHINDIRITBL  Targeted clients – female (number) (Number, Custom Supplement) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 57,500.00 57,500.00 55,000.00 6/29/2017 Page 8 of 11 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Second Northern Mountains Poverty Reduction Project (P113493) PHINDIRITBL At least 60% of CIGs established by the project have an ongoing contractual business relationship with their agribusiness partner.
