1 Master Plan for Agricultural Development in the Southern Region of Bangladesh Ministry of Agriculture Government of the People s Republic of Bangladesh & Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations LCG Core Working Group Meeting, 29 September 2013

2 Agenda 1. Why a Master Plan 2. What is in it 3. How to Implement it 4. Gaps 5. Next steps o 2

3 1. Why a Master Plan for Agricultural Development in the Southern Region? o challenges poverty; weak economic integration; agricultural development constrained due to coastal vulnerability and climate change, flooding, water-logging, salinity; landlessness o Needs a plan to handle cross-sectoral problems where needs for infrastructure, livelihood development, improved nutrition, sustainable natural resource use, etc.all coincide o The Master Plan is a roadmap for integrated agricultural development in the coastal zone of Bangladesh aiming at sustainable food security, poverty reduction and livelihood development for the poor 3

4 specific biophysical challenges Infrastructure planning and land use/livelihoods planning not integrated Inefficient land use (low intensity); low productivity High soil and water salinity, drainage congestion Vulnerable to cyclone and storm surge Change of fish migration due to change in water flows Water logging, erosion, siltation and flooding Water scarcity for domestic purpose and irrigation Sea level rise due to climate change 4

5 institutional weakness Coordination among service providers does not exist; little accountability of service providers Narrow project-based approach Water management organizations are not mature; or collapse after withdrawal of the project Farmers organisations weak, or lack appropriate governance to deliver benefits to members Lack of a holistic approach to farming systems, economic aspects, etc 5

6 2. What is in it? 1. crops, horticulture and agroforestry 2. fisheries 3. livestock 4. nutrition 5. water management 6. drainage management 7. polder improvement 8. agri-business 9. agricultural credit; and 10.capacity building 10 major components include 26 programmes and 85 interventions

8 alignment of Master Plan with CIP 3. Improved quality of inputs and soil fertility 1. Input supply system 1. Improving management of pond resources for enhancing production of fish 2. Community based Pen and Cage culture Availability 4. Fisheries & Aquaculture Development 3. Production and protection of quality, broods, stocks, fingerlings, shrimps and prawns 5. Livestock Development, with a focus on poultry and dairy production 4. Enforcing land zoning and productivity enhancement of shrimp 1. Community based dairy development 2. Establishment of commercial buffalo and sheep farms Access 6. Improved access to market, value addition in agriculture and non-farm incomes 1. Establishment of market infrastructure with value chain management addressing processing, postharvest management and grading 2. Fish Drying Utilization 7.Community-based nutrition programmes and services 1. Synergizing homestead farming with nutrition education NB: the Master Plan covers only SR Districts; CIP is for the entire country 8

9 Important programmes of Master Plan outside CIP:- Programme 1 Special Farm Credit 2 Promotion of Land Accretion Process 3 Strengthening of public sector agencies and local government institutions 4 Popularizing agro-forestry practices 5 Promotion of potential cropping patterns 6 Salt production programme 9

10 3. How to implement it Harness resources for implementation work was ongoing before the Master Plan! Mainstreaming GoB ongoing and future programmes linked with the Delta Plan Harmonization of existing policies and programmes Adequate resource allocation Inter-agency linkage and coordination Strengthen extension and technology providers Strong role of LGI and the community Monitoring mechanisms 10

11 process Need to facilitate horizontal and vertical linkage between stakeholders particularly linking the community and local government Member: Secretary of MoA, MoWR MoF&L, MoE&F, MoF&DM, MoL, LGD, RD, ERD, Member-GED & Agril Div, Planning Commission CEO of: BWDB, DAE, DoF, DLS, DoE, FD, LGED, BADC, BARC, DAM BWDB DAE DoF DLS FD BADC LGED BARC Inter-Ministerial Implementation Monitoring Committee (IMIMC) District Implementation Committee (DIC) Upazila Implementation Committee (UIC) Union Parishad Chair: Minister of MoA Co-Chairs: Minister of MoWR, MoF&L Academia CSO Private sector WMF CBO 11

Allocation from development partners:- Name of Organization Number of projects in the Southern Region Total Budget (in BDT million) Netherlands World Bank USAID * EU * all programme areas of CIP; Monitoring Report Allocation from all DPs are yet to be obtained 2. Total Allocation includes areas outside Master Plan 3. It is also not known how much of these allocations is already utilized.

15 eg USAID(CIP Monitoring Report 2013) Sl No Programme Area Total Budget (in Million BDT) 1 2 Sustainable and Diversified Agriculture (integrated research and extension) 1,288 Improved water resources management and infrastructure for irrigation 1,157 3 Improved quality of inputs and soil fertility Improved access to market, value addition in agriculture and non-farm incomes 6,859 5 Community-based nutrition programmes and services 69 Total 10,246 District-wise breakdown of funding is yet to be done A portion of this amount covers Master Plan programmes Two additional non CIP programmes in water and infrastructure (estimated $17m)

16 Estimated current allocation for programmes covered by MASR 71613, 12% 54852, 10% , 78% Estimated additional need ADP Non-ADP(DP) Non-ADP figures require updating and validation with DPs

17 4. Significant gaps for funding Further productivity enhancement Agribusiness development (link to marketing/livelihoods Agricultural Credit Nutrition-sensitive food production Strengthening local institutions, including for extension 17

18 - Further productivity enhancement Crops Rice productivity improvement (T. Aman; T. Aus; Boro) Promotion of pulses, maize, chilli, sugar beets, etc Large scale demonstration of proven technology Promotion of horticulture, vegetables and agroforestry Fisheries Piloting of community based pen and cage culture Zoning and productivity enhancement of shrimp Conservation and management of sanctuaries Livestock Improved livelihood of smallholders through community livestock and dairy development (Tala Model) Strengthening animal healthcare and AI services 18

19 - Agri-business development Establishment of market infrastructure with value chain management addressing processing, postharvest management and grading Training and awareness building of all stakeholder Enhancement of milk, meat, fish, fruits and vegetable processing center Establishment of independent quality control certification laboratory Salt productivity enhancement through improved management practice Promotion of community based fish dryer 19

20 - Agricultural Credit Establishing a revolving credit fund for farmers and small & medium entrepreneurs with maximum 3 % service charge. Supply of rural credit by source Public sector (5%) MFI (15%) Non-institutional (80%) 20

21 - Nutrition-sensitive food production Promoting integrated homestead agriculture (vegetables, fruits, pond fish and backyard poultry & dairy) for food security and nutrition Incorporate nutrition awareness component in agricultural behavioural change at different levels for mass communication (field sessions and training, audio visual, printing media etc). Homestead based programme on diversified food preparation and processing and Alternate Income generation (AIG) for women Promotion of fish production emphasizing Small and Indigenous Species (SIS) 21

22 - Strengthening local institutions Promote coordination and linkage of different service providers Capacity building of local institutions and different stakeholders working on water management, infrastructure development and agribusiness Create enabling environment for building effective farmers organization Strengthen holistic approach to farming systems 22

23 5. Next steps Gaps may help guide formulation of projects and programmes Inter-agency coordination on implementation of integrated projects Development partners may also consider gaps in priority programmes for possible funding Improved agricultural development in SR needs support of interministerial and inter-agency efforts. Proposed committees should be formed immediately and must be functional and work in harmony There should be regular monitoring of the implementing process of the Master Plan more complete identification of funding gaps, and whether they are being closed The GoB planning process and the upcoming Delta Plan process may also use this document in the formulation of future strategic and development plans 23
