The strategic approaches and implementation arrangements of the project are well understood and an Page 1 of 7 The World Bank Report No: ISR2425 encouraging paradigm shift is noted in the way the project is perceived and a growing understanding within the stakeholders about the regional aspect of the project. Nevertheless, more effort is needed to improve on the following areas: (i) regional coordination and complementing work programs among program countries, (ii) baseline data collection and Public Disclosure Copy streamlining the monitoring and reporting arrangements, (iii) inventory of potential agricultural technologies to speed up the upscaling efforts, and (iv) operational and technical support from ASARECA should be focused as per the Implementation Agreement and should be demand driven.
