The operation supports the Government of Rwanda s strategic objectives of the Transformation of Agriculture Sector Program Phase 3 with aims to enhance food security and nutrition contributing to reduction in poverty and inclusive economic growth. The operation supports four broad program areas: (i) agriculture and animal resource intensification; (ii) research, technology transfer and professionalization of farmers; (iii) value chain development and private sector investment; and (iv) institutional development and agricultural cross-cutting issues. Public Disclosure Authorized Overall Ratings Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO Satisfactory Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Satisfactory Satisfactory Implementation Status and Key Decisions Achievement of PDO and Program Implementation was found to be Satisfactory. As part of the PforR operation, the Government of Rwanda (GoR) and the Bank demonstrated a high degree of flexibility and responsiveness leading to important changes to the overall policy environment. This assessment is based on the World Bank's review of the evidence pertaining to the 15 core indicators of the PSTA3 PforR operation, including the achievement of the 8 DLIs, the Program Action Plan, and the overall assessment of the PforR operation. The PforR operation made substantial progress on building a coherent and comprehensive MIS/M&E system for the agriculture sector however the mission noted that the system will need further and continuous support as part of the PforR operation supporting GoR's PSTA4.
