Info

The jobs created this quarter were down against target due to the smaller sales of briquette machines. However, this comes off the back of the huge number sold and jobs created last quarter (563%). A detailed explanation of actual achievement results against target is provided in the main text. The AAPI project has nine custom indicators as per the CA. All exceeded or achieved target except the sale of briquette machines and as explained above the huge sale last quarter did not require the sales this quarter to maintain supply in a season of no rain. Details are shown in the following Table.

Highlights of Project Activities The AAPI Scale-Up program required implementation of 16 activities during the quarter as indicated in the following Table. The targets were met (or exceeded) in 13 activities. The meetings with fertilizer and seed committees are below target because the meetings are held at the initiative of the district/upazila administrations; this does not detract from the results. Promotions through open sky shows were not appropriate in view of the drought conditions that prevailed through April. As explained above the huge sale last quarter did not require the sales this quarter to maintain supply in a season of no rain.

The Boro crop was referred to as a “bumper crop”. There were consistent reports in the media of high yields but this was coupled with low prices and high production costs. Farmers are re-considering their cropping options. When the rains did not come in April for the Aus planting, farmers refused to spend money on irrigation in the face of the low x
