It covers the work completed during the period from July 26, 2014 to July 25, 2015. This also reports on the progress achieved during the eighth quarter (April-July 2014)1 of project implementation. This overview presents a summary of results, the deliverables and key activities during the eighth quarter of AAPI-WFA and Year 2. Further details on annual/cumulative progress and a discussion of issues and the near-term outlook are provided in the main text. The targets herein were set in the AAPI-WFA Year 2 Plan (covering the period August 2014-July 2015). They are governed, in turn, by the Performance and Outcome Indicators that are specified in the agreement between the International Fertilizer Development Center (IFDC) and the Walmart Foundation. In this report, the terms Guti urea, urea deep placement (UDP) and fertilizer deep placement (FDP) are used throughout the report. Guti urea refers to the urea briquettes. UDP refers to the deep placement of the urea briquettes. FDP is the generic term and refers to deep placement of any fertilizer briquettes, usually either urea or briquettes containing some combination of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K). Deliverables All of the AAPI-WFA project deliverables were submitted as required during the fourth quarter of Year 2 of AAPI-WFA. A summary of the required deliverables with month of submission is shown in Table 1. 1 The month of July has been included in the eight quarter to report complete one year progress. However, some information beyond July 25 is not reported here. Any progress beyond July 25 will be reported in the final report. v Table 1. Project Deliverables and Submission Data Year 2 (July 26, 2014-July 25, 2015) Deliverable Work Plan Monthly Progress Reports Quarterly Performance Report Half Yearly Report Annual Report Interim Impact Evaluation JulyMarch 1 8 2 1 1 1 April May June July 1 1 1 1 1 1 Total Year 2 1 12 4 1 1 1 Results The eighth quarter saw the completion of the harvesting of the winter vegetable 2014-15 crops and the continuation of production and transplantation of the summer 2015 vegetable crops. The results are reported against indicators and their targets specified in the contract between IFDC and Walmart Foundation, with interpretations via the Annual Work Plan. To align with reporting requirements, the results indicators are presented in Table 2 for Year 2 covering the period July 25, 2014-July 24, 2015 period. Of the 14 result indicators, only eight result indicators were active during the quarter. These are all related to winter vegetable 2014-15 and estimated after completion of the village monitoring survey, the follow-up survey of the trained farmers and crop cuts from farmer’s field. All the results are directly related to the area covered by the trained farmers. Information on the FDP vegetable area and number of farmers applying FDP technology during summer vegetable 2015 could not be incorporated here because transplantation of summer vegetable completes during mid-July 2015 and follow-up cannot start before midJuly 2015. However, all information related to other indicators such as number of new individuals who have received Walmart supported short-term agricultural sector productivity or food security training, number of rural households benefiting directly from Walmart intervention and farmers trained during summer 2015 already reported in the last quarter. Similarly, information on incremental yield and all other related information could not be reported as the crop cut of summer vegetable 2015 could not be completed. The cumulative achievement of Year 2 indicators shows that, of the 14 result indicators, targets have been met or exceeded for six indicators. One indicator is making good progress. In case of other indicators such as incremental production, urea savings, value of savings all are related with FDP coverage, and we expect to meet the targets for these indicators only if vi we could complete the survey of all the 40,000 trained farmers and crop cuts for the summer vegetable 15 crops. But due to time constraints, it will not be possible to conduct the survey of 40,000 farmers. Table 2.

In the earlier reports, the area under winter 2014-15 are reported from weekly reports, the numbers have been adjusted with the completion of village monitoring survey and follow-up survey of trained farmers. The summer 2015 vegetable area are not included as transplantation continued through mid-July and village monitoring survey and follow-up cannot be started before mid-July. All information here relates to only direct beneficiaries. Highlights of Project Activities Table 3 provides the highlights of project technical activities. During the last quarter of Year 2, two activities were active and both achieved or exceeded the target. Also another four vii activities, which could not be carried out in the previous quarters due to political disturbances, were completed during this quarter. The cumulative achievement of Year 2 activities shows that all the 11 activities of Year 2, except one either achieved 100 percent or exceeded the target. One activity, holding a national workshop, could not be achieved due to no response from donor. Table 3.

Although this part of the AAPI activity was signed July 26, 2013, virtually all project activities in the field began the last week of August 2013 after the appointment of staff. Therefore, the project’s actual expenses started from September 2013, and the expenses reported here are for 22 months through June 2015. In Year 2, the budget for the project was estimated at U.S. $618,091. Of this, the actual expenses incurred totaled U.S. $397,386 through June 2015, or 64 percent of the Year 2 budget. viii Accelerating Agriculture Productivity Improvement (AAPI) Walmart Foundation Activity Second Annual Report (July 26, 2014-July 25, 2015) USAID-Bangladesh Cooperative Agreement Number AID-388-A-10-00002 Introduction The Walmart Foundation signed a contract with the International Fertilizer Development Center (IFDC) on July 26, 2013, for implementation of the Accelerating Agriculture Productivity Improvement (AAPI) Walmart Foundation Activity (WFA) for a period of two years. The goal of the AAPI-WFA is to enhance rural women’s empowerment by increasing their capacity to produce and market horticultural crops and to increase their families’ food security status by way of the following: 1. Increasing income from the sales of the vegetables and fruits that will be produced. 2. Improving nutrition by increasing the home consumption of these products. Achieving this goal will result from carrying out a set of integrated strategic activities to enhance the technical knowledge of women in the production and marketing of horticultural crops, which are not only high-value products but are also highly nutritious. Rapid diffusion of fertilizer deep placement (FDP)2 technology, with concurrent attention to demand- and supply-side issues, and improvement of women’s access to and participation in markets are essential components of the AAPI-WFA. Although this part of the AAPI activity was signed July 26, 2013, virtually all project activities in the field began from the last week of August 2013. This is the fourth quarterly 2 FDP involves point placement of a large fertilizer pellet (up to 3.4 grams by weight) near the root zone of the plant. This reduces fertilizer nitrogen losses and increases crop uptake efficiency of the fertilizer; it is an environmentally friendly technology. Urea deep placement (UDP) technology is well-suited to small, resourcepoor farmers, including women. 1 report (April-July 2015) of the AAPI-WFA for Year 2. It also provides cumulative progress through July 2015. A summary of activities, status of deliverables and results for the quarter are provided in the overview. More detailed reports on all of these activities are provided in the following text. It may be noted that from Year 4, AAPI has set separate targets on the use of FDP technology in vegetable and other crops. These are reported separately in the AAPI quarterly report. There is no duplication of information as the area of both activities has been demarcated. The geographic spread of the AAPI-WFA logically divides into three regions: Barisal and Jessore regions (Feed the Future [FTF] zone), with 24 upazilas in 10 districts; and Mymensingh region (non-FTF zone), with nine upazilas in two districts. Table 4 provides a summary of the number of AAPI-WFA clusters and villages by region, and Map 1 shows the locations. The AAPI-WFA has been directly engaged in winter and summer vegetable activities in all the 329 villages. Table 4.

As indicated in Table 5, all were submitted as planned. In addition, although not a contracted deliverable, the AAPI-WFA prepared 16 weekly reports on project performance during this period in order to facilitate project oversight. Table 5.

Results The eighth quarter saw the completion of the harvesting of the winter vegetable 2014-15 crops and continuation of production and transplantation of summer 2015 vegetable crops. The results are reported against indicators and their targets specified in the contract between IFDC and Walmart Foundation with interpretations via the Annual Work Plan. To align with reporting requirements, the results indicators are presented in Table 26 for Year 2, covering the July 25, 2014-July 24, 2015 period. Of the 14 result indicators, only eight result indicators were active during the quarter. These are all related to winter vegetable 2014-15 and estimated after the completion of the village monitoring survey, the follow-up survey of the trained farmers and the crop cuts from farmers’ fields. All the results are directly related to the area covered by the trained farmers. Information on the FDP vegetable area and the number of farmers applying FDP technology during summer vegetable 2015 could not be incorporated here, because transplantation of summer vegetable completes during mid-July 2015 and follow-up cannot start before mid4 July 2015. However, all information related to other indicators, such as the number of new individuals who have received Walmart supported short-term agricultural sector productivity or food security training, the number of rural households benefiting directly from Walmart intervention and the number of farmers trained during summer 2015, was already reported in the last quarter. Similarly, information on incremental yield and all other related information could not be reported, as the crop cut of summer vegetable 2015 could not be completed. The cumulative achievement of Year 2 indicators shows that, of the 14 result indicators, targets have been met or exceeded for six indicators. One indicator is making good progress. The other indicators, such as incremental production, urea savings and value of savings, are all related to FDP coverage, and we expected to meet the targets for these indicators only if we could complete the survey of all the 40,000 trained farmers and crop cuts for the summer vegetable 15 crops. But, due to time constraints, it will not be possible to conduct the survey of 40,000 farmers. The cumulative achievement of the total project is impressive within a span of only two years. Of the 14 result indicators, targets have been met or exceeded for eight indicators. One indicator, the number of women farmers who have applied new technologies, made good progress. The other five indicators were related to UDP area coverage. Although more vegetable area has been brought under UDP coverage, the incremental production has been shown only for 10 crops (cabbage, cauliflower, eggplant, tomato, potato, maize, bottle gourd, country bean, chili and banana) for winter vegetables and four (cucumber, bitter gourd, teasel gourd and taro) crops for summer vegetables. Because of resource constraints, it was not possible to conduct crop cuts for a large number of crops, so cuts were limited to AAPIrecommended crops. The results of (1) incremental production, (2) increased value of vegetables, (3) urea saving, (4) value of urea saving and (5) government of Bangladesh (GOB) urea subsidy savings would be much more than shown in Table 6. 5 Table 6.

In the earlier reports, the area under winter 2014-15 are reported from weekly reports, the numbers have been adjusted with the completion of village monitoring survey and follow-up survey of trained farmers. The summer 2015 vegetable area are not included as transplantation continued through mid-July and village monitoring survey and follow-up cannot be started before mid-July. All information here relates to only direct beneficiaries. The summer 2015 vegetable area are not included as transplantation continued through mid-July and village monitoring survey and follow-up cannot be started before mid-July. All information here relates to only direct beneficiaries 6 Vegetable Area Under Improved Technologies or Management Practices Direct Beneficiaries The FDP coverage data by direct beneficiaries in winter and summer vegetables are collected through village monitoring surveys and a follow-up of trained farmers using a set format developed by AAPI-WFA staff. The follow-up survey of all the trained farmers for winter 2014-15 has been completed. These data are collected by AAPI-WFA field monitoring officers (FMOs) using a set format, who then send the completed format to the AAPI Data Management Unit, where the data is analyzed by the senior data management specialist under the guidance of the chief of party (COP). The information for summer vegetable 2015 is not included here for reasons mentioned earlier. Table 7 shows that the direct beneficiaries have brought 4,820 ha under UDP technology through July 2015, taking into account summer 2014 and winter 2014-15 vegetable seasons.

A total of 40,000 women farmers were trained under the AAPI-WFA. In addition, 109 participants attended the AAPI TOT program in the first quarter of Year 2, and 52 participants attended the briquette machine owners’ trainings; thus, the total number of individuals receiving AAPI-WFA shortterm training stands at 40,161. A summary of the training programs is presented in Table 12. Appendix 3, Appendix 4 and Appendix 5 provide the information separately. Table 12.

Number of Rural Households Benefiting Directly From Walmart Interventions A household is a beneficiary if it contains at least one individual who is a beneficiary. For AAPI-WFA, this is defined as an individual engaged with a project activity who has already either shown benefit from the activity or has a high likelihood of gaining benefits due to a significant level of engagement with the project. It is calculated from the number of farmers trained and the number of rural entrepreneurs who procured a fertilizer briquette machine at a reduced rate and directly benefited from an intervention of AAPI-WFA. 11 Until the reporting quarter, a total of 40,025 rural households benefited directly from AAPIWFA interventions through June 2015.

Increased Yield of Vegetables Winter Vegetable 2014-15 The incremental yields arising from UDP technology are derived from crop cuts in farmer fields. Each cut consists of two samples – one from a UDP field and another (as close as possible) from a broadcast urea field which used the same variety of seeds, has a similar soil type and has equal number of plants. Vegetable crop cuts are recorded for each harvest/picking according to a prescribed format prepared under AAPI-WFA. For the winter vegetable 2014-15, 50 crop cuts were targeted and 50 crop cuts were completed. Table 14 presents the yield difference of five vegetable crops. Table 14.

The target of a selected number of vegetables was set at 1 to 10 mt/ha in the Annual Work Plan. However, the incremental yield ranged from 2.67 mt/ha to 7.18 mt/ha of the selected five vegetable crops (cabbage, cauliflower, potato, eggplant and tomato). In terms of 12 percentage, the incremental yield ranged between 9 and 23 percent for the same crops. The results can be compared with the data for demonstrations reported in Table 26, where yield increments averaged 6.77 mt/ha for cabbage, 4.98 mt/ha for cauliflower, 3.68 mt/ha for potato, 5.17 mt/ha for eggplant and 5.02 mt/ha for tomato. As could be expected, yields were generally higher in the demonstrations. But in the case of cauliflower and tomato, yields were higher in farmers’ field crop cuts than that of the demonstration. This may be due to better farm management practices adopted by farmers. The farmers have used Guti urea in many vegetables, which cannot be targeted for crop cuts due to resource constraints. However, AAPI-WFA staff collected information from another four crops (bottle gourd, country bean, chili and banana) from 50 samples, which are direct beneficiaries of AAPI-WFA on the yield difference, sales volume and sales value. The yield of these four crops are presented in Table 15. The incremental yield of these crops ranged between 0.97 mt/ha and 3.93 mt/ha. Table 15.

Incremental Vegetable Production Incremental vegetable production is calculated from the area of UDP coverage and the weighted average yield increments as measured by vegetable crop cuts in farmers’ fields. Although more vegetable area has been brought under UDP coverage, the incremental production has been shown only for the nine crops (cabbage, cauliflower, potato, eggplant, tomato, bottle gourd, country bean, chili and banana) mentioned above. The incremental production would be much more than shown in Table 16. 13 Table 16.

From each pick/harvest of each crop, AAPI-WFA FMOs recorded the amount sold to the market and also the value received by the farmers. After the final crop cut was completed, data was compiled in the AAPI Data Management Unit, and the unit price was calculated by dividing total sales value of the crop by the total quantity sold. The process followed for the 50 sample farmers’ survey. The details of the increased value by crop are presented in Table 17. This value would have been much higher if this could have been calculated for all crops. Table 17.

Note: U.S. $1 = Tk 77. It may be noted that each woman farmer is using FDP technology in more than one crop. Field information indicates that each woman has used FDP technology in two to three crops. Therefore, the unique number of farmers for these crops have been calculated by dividing the total number of farmers by 2.5. 14 Urea Savings Urea savings are also calculated from the crop cut data collected from farmers’ fields. The results are summarized by crop in Table 18. The Annual Plan assumed urea savings of 10 percent per unit of land for each vegetable crop. But the farmers’ field crop cut data indicates that it ranged 17-24 percent for the nine types of vegetable crops. Actual urea savings were 28-104 kg/ha. Total urea saved was 246 mt. Table 18.

Value of Urea Saved The value of urea saved is calculated from the urea saved, using the international market price. The Annual Plan set the target using the price of U.S. $400/mt. The average Bangladesh Chemical Industries Corporation (BCIC) imported urea price, October 2014 to April 2015, was U.S. $402/mt. This is used to calculate values of urea saved against the nine crops shown in Table 19. The value of urea saved was U.S. $98,953 from these nine crops. This would have been much higher if crop cut of all crops could be completed, as indicated earlier. 15 Table 19.

Government of Bangladesh Saving on Urea Subsidy The Annual Plan assumed a GOB subsidy of U.S. $177.78/mt., but the dealer price reduced to Tk 14/kg, or U.S. $181.82/mt. Using the import parity price reported in the value of urea saved, the subsidy on a ton of urea is U.S. $220.18. Using this data, the savings on the urea subsidy in nine crops of winter 2014-15 vegetables amounts to U.S. $38,082, or U.S. $0.04 million (Table 20). Table 20.

Average Incremental Value per Hectare The average incremental value per hectare is estimated by dividing the total incremental value of the four crops by the total UDP area of the same four crops. The values are also 16 shown in Table 21 by crop. This is a reflection of higher incremental yield of all four vegetables discussed above. Table 21.

The AAPI-WFA has also calculated the gross margin using the sample crop cut survey data of the five crops.3 The results are presented in Table 22, which shows that the weighted average gross margin is higher for all five crops with UDP technology compared with broadcast application of urea. Therefore, the benefit is that the cost ratio is also high for all UDP crops. Details are presented in Appendix 6. Table 22.

Note: U.S. $ = BDT 77. 3 USAID FTF indicator definition: The gross margin is the difference between the total value of production of the agricultural product (crop) and the cost of producing that item excluding family labor, divided by the total number of units in production (hectares of crops). Gross margin per hectare is a measure of net income for that farm’s activity. Only purchased inputs that represent at least 5 percent of total costs have been considered for calculation of gross margin. Costs include, for example, rent paid but not imputed rent on own land. If a farmer owned the pump that irrigated his or her land, the fuel cost was considered. 17 Average Incremental Income per Farm The average incremental value per farm is estimated by dividing the total incremental value of the nine crops by the total UDP direct beneficiaries of all crops. As a result, per farm income is U.S. $75 per farm (Table 23). It is already mentioned that this estimate is based on only a few crops. The value will be much higher if all crops are taken in to consideration. Table 23.

Therefore, the unique number of farmers for these crops have been calculated by dividing the total number farmers by 2.5. Farmers Trained Through July 2015, all the 1,000 training programs targeting 40,000 women have been completed. Details by upazila are provided in Appendix 3. Fertilizer Briquette Machines Sold Of the 25 briquetting machines targeted in the first year, all fertilizer briquette machines have been sold to women entrepreneurs through July 2015. Activities Table 24 provides the highlights of project technical activities. During the last quarter of Year 2, two activities were active and all of those achieved or exceeded the target; another four activities, which could not be carried out in the previous quarters due to political 18 disturbances, were completed during this quarter. However, all the 11 activities of Year 2 except one either achieved 100 percent or exceeded the target. One activity, holding a national workshop, could not be achieved due to a lack of response from the donor. Table 24 further indicates that through July 2015, of the 14 activities, AAPI-WFA either achieved or exceeded the target in all the activities except with two national workshops for reasons mentioned above.

Technology Transfer Farmer Training on FDP Technology The women farmer training programs are designed to improve farmer knowledge of vegetable crop management in general, with emphasis on increasing awareness and knowledge of FDP technology and use of good-quality seeds. A training module has been developed for farmer training. Training takes place over a period of two days, and each day 19 involves training for three hours, either in the afternoon or in the morning to match the schedule of women farmers. In one batch, 40 women were trained by a Department of Agriculture Extension (DAE) sub-assistant agriculture officer (SAAO) as the resource person. In some instances, in the absence of a trained trainer, the AAPI-WFA FMO is the resource person. The FMO is responsible for the administration, according to guidelines set by the project. This arrangement helps build the farmer training into the mainstream of DAE field programs while maintaining accountability for the activity within the project. Through July 2015, a total of 40,000 women farmers were trained under the AAPI-WFA. Details of farmers training are provided by upazila in Appendix 3. Field Demonstrations Technology results demonstrations are some of the important activities of the AAPI-WFA. The demonstration plots consist of two plots, each measuring 200 square meters – one using UDP and the other broadcasting conventional urea, keeping all other inputs such as seed and other fertilizers and the management practices constant. Through July 2015, a total of 100 vegetable demonstrations were established, among which 39 were in winter 2013-14, 11 were in summer 2014 and 50 were in winter 2014-15. Details of the demonstrations by crop are provided by upazila in Appendix 7. Status of Winter 2014-15 Vegetable Demonstration: There were 50 field demonstrations planned for the winter season in Year 2. Out of 50 demonstrations, 11 demonstrations were harvested this quarter. In the last quarter 39 were harvested. The status of winter demonstrations is presented in Table 25. Table 25.

Data are collected by AAPI-WFA FMOs as per set format during each pick. The farmers are advised to keep all records of 20 harvest so that FMOs can get correct information. The results of demonstration plots that were completely harvested during the January-July 2015 period are presented in Table 26. Appendix 8 provides additional details by demonstration. Table 26.

Motivational Field Visits Motivational field visits allow farmers in a new area to visit and exchange views with those in areas that show the benefits of FDP technology. Normally, about 40 women farmers, along with SAAO and the upazila agriculture officer (UAO) of DAE, are taken from an area that is new to FDP technology to an area where FDP technology is widely adopted. Therefore, the visits can occur only when there is something to show and learn. In Year 2, all the motivational field visits were completed. Through July 2015, 20 motivational visits were completed against the target of 20. Details by regions are provided in Appendix 9. Motivational Meeting with Trained Farmers This activity is undertaken by the staff as a follow-up of the trained farmers to hold their interest in using FDP technology in their vegetable gardens and field crops. The project uses farmer meetings as an effective way to remind farmers of the benefits they received in the earlier season when they used urea briquettes. The purpose is to affirm farmer commitment to use UDP technology in the new season. As the project proceeds, the number of farmers who have already used UDP is growing to the point where they are the majority. Motivational meetings are becoming the key to sustaining the numbers of adopters. During the reporting quarter, five motivational meetings were conducted. Through July 2015, 42 meetings were completed. Details by regions are provided in Appendix 10. 21 Field Days In this quarter, seven field days were held around the winter vegetable harvests of demonstration plots. Field days are organized for farmers, including extension agents, mainly to observe the methods and results of UDP technology in the particular demonstration. They also share their experiences through question-and-answer sessions with demonstration and UDP block farmers, as well as with AAPI-WFA senior staff and DAE officials. Through July 2015, 100 field days were organized and completed in the project area. A total of 5,952 participants attended the field days, of which 4,582 were women farmers; 1,370 other participants included male farmers, DAE field officials, media personnel, briquetting machine owners, local leaders and other project staff. Appendix 11 indicates the total number of field days organized by region. Women’s Access to Fertilizer Briquettes Selling of Briquetting Machines and Guti Production One of the important components of AAPI-WFA is to increase rural women’s incomes and empowerment through the ownership of small agro-enterprises (e.g., the fertilizer briquette machines). All machines targeted for sale were completed last quarter. Through July 2015, all 25 machines were sold. Appendix 12 indicates the briquette machine owners list by region. All of these 25 entrepreneurs have produced 1,013.03 mt of fertilizer briquettes and sold all. Appendix 13 provides the status of production by briquette owners. Training of Fertilizer Briquetting Machines Owners The AAPI engineer, AAPI technician and AAPI business management officer conducts training for fertilizer briquette producers. It is a two-day course with a high practical content. The first day is technical training for owners and operators, and discussion is on machine operations and maintenance, briquette production, quality control, and mixing and briquette applicator use in vegetable/rice in the case of briquette manufacturers. The second day is business management and accounting practices. In this quarter, no training courses were organized for the machine owners. All the four training programs completed last quarter. Appendix 5 provide details of the training programs through June 2015. 22 Sharing Information and Ideas Stakeholders Workshop In this quarter, three stakeholders’ workshops took place in Bagerhat, Bhola and Pirojpur districts to acquaint different stakeholders and women communities about the project goal, objectives and activities to be carried out, focusing discussion on women’s empowerment through vegetable productivity improvement. The heads of the district administration, deputy commissioners (DCs), were the chief guests of the workshops, which were held in the DCs’ conference room. The deputy director of the DAE of the corresponding district chaired the workshops. The workshops’ participants were selected from different segments of society associated with agriculture crop production, such as women farmers, private enterprises dealing with agriculture inputs, fertilizer briquette producers, BCIC fertilizer dealers, retailers, irrigation pump owners, market management committee members, school teachers, mosque imams, union council members (women) and representatives from non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The objectives of organizing a stakeholder workshop by AAPI-WFA are to: (1) inform local stakeholders about AAPI and AAPI-WFA; (2) motivate stakeholders and seek their commitment to support women for expansion of FDP technology in vegetable crops; and (3) create awareness among stakeholders for facilitating the empowerment of women in farmers’ families. The project coordinator and AAPI COP briefly presented an overview of AAPI and AAPI-WFA. The workshop was designed for discussion by the participants on women’s empowerment through vegetable productivity improvement using FDP technology. In this process, participants were divided into small groups for analysis of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT). Small groups identified SWOT for women’s empowerment through vegetable production using FDP technology. These were then presented in the workshop for endorsement by all participants. Details of the workshop participants by regions are provided in Appendix 14. Printing and Distribution of Promotional Material The AAPI-WFA is sharing information about the project activity and FDP technology among the beneficiaries and other stakeholders through leaflets, brochures, signboards and flyers. These are being used in various activities such as stakeholder workshops, motivational tours, and farmer training programs, field demonstrations, field days and public handouts. Materials were also distributed to representatives of integrated pest management (IPM)/integrated crop 23 management (ICM) clubs and community leaders. A list of promotional materials prepared, printed and displayed through July 2015 is presented in Appendix 15. Media Coverage The project regularly invites members of the electronic and print media to different events for wider coverage. These events are reported and broadcast on several television channels, in local/national newspapers and online. Details on media coverage of the AAPI-WFA are provided in Appendix 16. Estimated Budget and Actual Expenditure AAPI-WFA is incurring costs as planned. Although this part of the AAPI activity was signed July 26, 2013, virtually all project activities in the field began the last week of August 2013 after the appointment of staff. Therefore, the project’s actual expenses started from September 2013, and the expenses reported here are for 22 months through June 2015. In Year 2, the budget for the project was estimated at U.S. $618,091. Of this, the actual expenses incurred totaled U.S. $397,386 through June 2015, or 64 percent of the Year 2 budget. Details of the expenses are provided in Table 27. Table 27.
