APPROACH AND MAJOR INTERVENTIONS Integrated cluster development approach: encompassing improved agriculture, Wadi (Tree based farming), livestock development and water resource development. Agriculture and Horticulture based livelihood Introduction of improved seed varieties and improved package of practices Wadi or tree based farming as a farming system approach demonstrated where farmer plant fruit trees along with seasonal crops. Water resource development was linked with these interventions.

INNOVATIVE INTERVENTION – VALUE CHAIN ON LINSEED • Introduction of improved seed Varieties of Linseed • Seed Production • Productivity Enhancement • Omega 3 Oil Extraction • Development of Omega 3 Products • Marketing of Products – Cross cutting with component 2 subproject
COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT AND SUSTAINABILITY Planning with participants Technical capacity building and formation and strengthening of people’s institutions Strategy of tapering support Community resource centers work for training, demonstrations and technology transfer managed through local committees The facilities such as Urea DAP briquetting machines, feed mix units, bulk milk coolers and shed nets are managed through these centers.
COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT AND SUSTAINABILITY Technical capacity building and drudgery reduction was the strategy adopted for effective integration of women in the process; . Women’s participation ensured in all the people’s institutions. Sustainability fund of about Rs One Crore established through people’s contribution Fund Management Committee for post project management

Sustainability Approach – Scope beyond Project TTC 10 -20 villages 5000 farmers Activities • Quality input supply for agriculture • breed improvement and livestock management services • Custom Hiring facility • Seed and Seedling production • Collective marketing of produce • Convergence of different schemes
IMPORTANT DIMENSIONS OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT Central team of BAIF led by CPI closely worked with partner institutes and field functionaries CIC meetings helpful in planning and discussing operational modalities A focused group including CPI created for to plan, review and follow up the project on monthly basis; helped project to expedite the matters very efficiently and timely. CMU: developed overall M & E framework of the project and periodic monitoring
IMPORTANT DIMENSIONS OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT Field level functionaries in addition to RAs and SRFs; project operations facilitated by the scientists, implemented by the field functionaries Field functionaries stationed at project locations; system of quarterly workshops for review and planning Effective communication material in local language Sustainability strategy Management Information System: matrix of participants for recording inputs; helpful in tracking the extent of inputs, helpful in limiting support as decided
LEARNINGS In-built flexibility in the project design – space for timely revisions of project activities and need-based packaging of technologies. The project design was made more intensive and inclusive rather than in the form of scattered demonstrations. The integrated approach of development: instrumental in addressing livelihood needs with agriculture, livestock, water and hence achieving higher results for the participant families. Value chain based approach provided end to end solution to the issues Consortium mode brought in synergy of expertise of SAUs, ICAR institutes and NGOs. However the performance was person specific rather than involvement of the institutions, especially in case of SAUs.
LEARNINGS Multi – disciplinary Team: technical teams were backed up by the social scientists which achieved people’s involvement in project activities. Annual review workshops organized by NAIP helped all the consortia learn from each other. Accounting and Finance: The World Bank guidelines not only build the capacity of project team but also helped improve the organizational capacity. Instrumental in keeping project control. The external audits improved the project accounting over the years. The success of this integrated approach of development has shown that the approach can be replicated in the other distressed areas with similar setting.
RECOMMENDATIONS Functionaries: important link for project implementation, necessary for effective delivery of the project activities Field Practical finance and accounting systems required for livelihood projects especially for the remote areas. Guidelines and systems required for the project activities executed by the farmers themselves. Intensive M&E through central PIU level across all the sub-projects would help improve the results. The CPIs to be involved in cross-monitoring would help through cross-learning.
RECOMMENDATIONS Timely fund releases by NAIP and better coordination and communication of NAIPfinance Such projects give scope to SAUs for better interface with farmers and hence a learning opportunity NGOs like BAIF certainly have capacity to contribute for national programmes on livelihood, develop innovative approaches should be involved by ICAR for implementation and applied research in the national projects.
