2nd Draft Revised TOR for the PRDP Mid-term Evaluation Study (July 2018)

1

The Philippine Rural Development Project (PRDP) Terms of Reference for the Conduct of Mid-term Evaluation Study 1. Background. The Philippine Rural Development Project (PRDP) is a World Bank assisted Project implemented by the Department of Agriculture (DA) nationwide. It is a national government platform for a modern and climate-smart agriculture that seeks to strengthen partnership with the Provincial Local Government Units (PLGUs) and agri-fishery stakeholders in realizing the goals of improved food security and increased incomes, climate resiliency and enhanced policy environment and governance as expressed in the Philippine Development Plan (PDP) 2011-2016. The Project is supportive of the national development goals of inclusive growth, job creation and poverty reduction. Moreover, it is aligned with the goals and priorities set out in the PDP 2011-2016 for a competitive and sustainable agriculture and fisheries sector and provides a Project-level support for the Agriculture and Fisheries Modernization Act of 1997 (Republic Act 8435), local development and full-service delivery from “farm to table”. 1.1 Project Development Objectives (PDOs). The PRDP aims to increase rural incomes and

enhance farm and fishery productivity in targeted areas. The Project promotes more inclusive rural development by supporting smallholders and fisher-folk to increase their marketable surpluses, and by improving access to markets. It is also supportive of changes in the planning, resource programming and implementation practices of the Department of Agriculture. It facilitates the integration and financing of priority local investments derived from the DA’s agricultural and fisheries modernization plans which have been developed using a value chain approach, and through a consultative process with local stakeholders. These can be achieved by improving access to a strategic network of infrastructure, market information and support services and increasing the value of producers’ market surplus, within priority value chains by implementing the project components. The results indicators for the Project are: (a) 20% increase in the value of marketed outputs in the project areas; (b) 10% increase in real farm and fishery household incomes, including on-and off-farm, in the project areas; (c) 20% increase in the number of farmers and fisher-folk adopting improved, climate smart technologies promoted by the project (i.e., in regard to weather, market prices, quality, packaging requirement, etc). The Results Framework and Monitoring (FRM), which contains specific result indicators to be achieved under the project is attached for reference.

1.2 Project Duration, Cost and Components. The PRDP is implemented over a period of six years. It became effective in December 2014 and will close in May 2021. It implements four components with a total cost of about 27.5 billion. Of which, Php 20.5 billion (75%) comes from the Loan Proceeds, Php 287 million (1%) from the Global Environment Facility (GEF) fund, and Php 6.7 billion (24%) as counterpart from the National and Local Governments.

Component 1: Local and National Level Planning (I-PLAN) supports the implementation and mainstreaming of the DA’s AFMP planning framework, thereby providing an operational platform for integrated technical support service delivery at the local and national levels. At the regional and local levels, regional AFMPs are being developed by taking into account spatial and value chain analysis and using tools for vulnerability and suitability assessment, participatory resource analysis. The local AFMPs build on the success of local governments in the implementation of their own development plans.

Component 2: Infrastructure Development (I-BUILD). A network of strategic rural infrastructures is being established, linking priority value chains in the Project targeted areas that are identified through the regional AFMPs. By the end of the Project, the component is envisaged to establish an improved access to strategic and climate-resilient rural infrastructure and facilities for the target beneficiaries. These rural infrastructures include farm-to-market roads (FMRs), bridges, communal irrigation systems (CIS), potable water systems (PWS), production and post-production facilities and other infrastructure such as fish landings, fish sanctuary/Protected Area guardhouses, among others.

Component 3: Enterprise Development (I-REAP) aims to strengthen and develop viable rural agro- industries through investments in the appropriate segments of efficient value chains of key agricultural and fishery products in the Project targeted areas. Specifically, I-REAP is designed to: (i) increase productivity and marketability of agriculture and fishery products through increased access to information and support services; and (ii) increase farm and fishery household incomes through engagement in value-adding activities. I-REAP represents a two-pronged approach: (i) support to communities for agriculture and fishery-based entrepreneurial activities with the goal of engaging more provincial LGUs in agri-fishery producers through strengthened public-private partnerships in value-adding activities and market (vertical and horizontal) linkages; and (ii) enhancing LGUs’ access to information, support and technologies throughout the value chain, i.e., production, post-harvest and processing, product testing, quality control, packaging technology, among others, and empower farmers and fisher groups to implement and sustain rural enterprises. Component 4: Implementation Support (I-SUPPORT) aims to introduce innovations and reforms towards more effective and efficient administrative support system in project implementation, mainly working through the existing DA bureaucracy. The management and implementation support mechanisms in PRDP builds on systems and practices that have proven effective under the MRDP2. To support implementation on a national scope, Project Support Offices (PSOs) are established in the four clusters namely; Luzon A (CAR, Regions 1, 2 and 3), Luzon B (Regions 4A, 4B, and 5), Visayas (Regions 6, 7 and 8), and Mindanao (Regions 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and ARMM). Support structures take into consideration varying levels of technical support and capacity building requirements based on the level of DA-RFU experience in implementing rural infrastructure and enterprise subprojects with LGUs. Institutionalization of the harmonized guidelines for DA-LGU engagement will be one of the key outputs of the Project under this component.

2. Mid-term Evaluation Study. One of the covenants of the DA in implementing the PRDP is to submit to the World Bank (WB) the Mid-term Evaluation Report, which shall provide an assessment of the extent by which outcomes anticipated from implementing the Project are taking place or likely to be achieved given the status of implementation as of the mid of the Project-life. The findings to be derived from the study shall be relevant for the DA and partner local government units to determine appropriate adjustments and strategies that need to be put in place in the Project operation in order to ensure that the outcomes anticipated from each Component of the Project and the overall Project Development Objectives (PDOs) would be successfully achieved at end of the Project.

2.1 Objectives.

The key objectives of the Mid-term Evaluation Study are as follows:

(i) Analyze the progress of the PRDP implementation by Component. This shall provide discussion of the activities and corresponding outputs relevant to the desired intermediate outcomes and PDOs, financial performance, strategies and adjustments that have been undertaken both in administration and operation aspects, and others.

(ii) Describe situations and compare changes in the areas covered by the study in the two periods namely; (a) “Before” the PRDP intervention (baseline / end of 2014); and (b) “After the PRDP intervention as of the mid of the PRDP implementation period (Year 3 / end of 2017). The study shall focus on determining changes on the indicators specified in the PRDP Results Framework and Arrangement for Monitoring (RFAM)1 as well as the other benefits emerging from the Project interventions. The RFAM is attached as Annex 1 for reference.

(iii) Provide an assessment whether or not changes emerging in the project areas are spearheaded by the PRDP activities and interventions as of the period of the study.

(iv) Analyze the status, identify challenges and recommend way forward in the

integration or mainstreaming across offices and programs of the DA the ten (10) innovative tools and reforms the PRDP has demonstrated in the aspects of planning, budgeting, delivery of interventions, transparency, social and environmental safeguards, monitoring and evaluation and others. The ten innovations and reforms are provided in Annex 2 for reference.

(v) Identify implementation issues (by component and cross-cutting), challenges and measures to address these in the next half of the Project implementation period.

1 The study shall make use of the adjusted Project Results Framework and Arrangement for Monitoring, which was part of the considerations of the WB in the appraisal and approval of the Project Expansion with Additional Financing.


4

(vi) Identify lessons learned that need to be taken into consideration in steering the

Project and for the DA in designing future similar projects.

(vii) Review and evaluation of the institutional arrangements for farm-to-market roads construction and maintenance under the joint DA-DPWH Memorandum No. 1 dated July 18, 2013 and a DA-DPWH joint letter of agreement dated October 11, 2013. This is an integral part of the project’s monitoring and evaluation system, in support of Government’s strategy of strengthening convergence between the DA, DPWH, and other related agencies on standards and protocols for rural road construction and rehabilitation.

2.2 Scope and Methodology

The coverage and selection of respondents for the conduct of Household Survey and FGD are explained below.

Household Survey (Stratified Random Survey). The study will carry out Stratified Random Household Survey to areas benefiting from the rural infrastructure subprojects and among households of producer groups2 covered by the study. Twenty respondents shall be selected from each area with rural infrastructure while ten (10) respondents shall be selected from each PG (managing the enterprise subproject) to be covered by the study. The approaches in the identification of respondents from the areas benefiting from the rural infrastructures and enterprise development subprojects are discussed below. Household Survey in Areas with Rural Infrastructures. a) FMRs. The evaluation approach concerning the FMR subprojects shall adopt

“Difference in Difference” evaluation. This requires survey with the two areas namely; Control (Non-Project Areas) and Treatment (Project Areas). The evaluation shall put emphasis on “Before and After3” the intervention as well as “With versus Without4” interventions. The Project Areas and Non-Project Areas shall be defined as follows.

Project Areas. The Project Areas shall refer to the municipalities, which have rural infrastructure subprojects that are already completed and accessed by the intended beneficiaries. The identification of these areas shall be based on the list of completed rural infrastructure subprojects as of June 2018.

Non-Project Areas. The Non-Project Areas on the other hand shall refer to the municipalities with pipelined and / or approved5 rural infrastructure subprojects for financing under the PRDP as of June 2018 (each has no completed subproject yet).

For the purpose of comparison and evaluation between the Project and Non-Project Areas, each Project Area shall have a matched Non-Project Area using the following criteria:

(i) Municipality within the same Province (1st Option); or Municipality outside of

the Province but within the same Region (2nd Option);

(ii) Closest description of subproject e.g. length of road, number of farmer and fisher households to benefit from the road, etc.; and

2 The HH survey among members of the producer groups intends to capture information specific for the indicators under the I-REAP Component (e.g., household income of member of producer groups and other benefits) 3 Gauging and / or describing differences in the experiences of the respondents (on various subjects / indicators) during the period when the subproject was not yet realized and the period when the subproject is already in place / functional (Single Difference Evaluation Approach). 4 Comparing the extent of change during the two periods between the two areas (one with completed subproject already and the other one without completed subproject yet). 5 The approved subprojects as of June 2018 to be under the Non-Project Areas shall pertain to subprojects that are projected to be completed in Year 2020. This is to ensure that no Non-Project Areas shall have completed subprojects (already posing benefits) by the time the Midterm Study is conducted (e.g., to fall in later part of Year 2018 or early 2019)


17

(iii) Preferably with same commodity/ies supported.

In the event that the Non-Project Areas would be less than the number of Project-Areas, some Project Areas that would have no matched non-project areas shall be removed as part of the areas to be covered by the study. This is to ensure that the study shall cover Project Areas and the corresponding matched Non-Project Areas.

In a Project Area, ten respondents (farmers / fishers) shall come from the stretch of the FMR (completed as of June 2018) inside the Road Influence Area (RIA). Another ten respondents (farmers / fishers) shall come from the same Municipality but outside6 of the RIA. The distance of the place of each respondent from the road shall be determined by employing the Applied Geo-tagging Technology (AGT)7. This shall be the means to establish whether a certain respondent resides within or outside of the RIA and will provide a view how the respondents are spread in the RIA. In a Non-Project Area, ten respondents (farmers / fishers) shall come from the stretch of the FMR (not yet completed as of June 2018) inside the Road Influence Area (RIA). Another ten respondents (farmers / fishers) shall come from the same Municipality but outside of the RIA. Likewise, the AGT shall be conducted to determine the distance of the place of the respondent from the road.

The hypothetical illustration on how the respondents shall be selected from the Project and Non-Project Areas given the criteria mentioned above is exhibited in Figure 1 (for FMR subprojects).

6 Respondents from outside of the RIA should involve households that have no direct / convenient access to other existing concreted roads in the municipality (e.g, not within the 2.5 km from the existing concreted road/s) 7 The PRDP NPCO Geo-Governance Unit (GGU) shall orient the enumerators for the household survey on using the AGT for the purpose of the Midterm Study.


18

Since it may be possible that a certain FMR may directly benefit members of certain producer groups that are either beneficiaries or not beneficiaries of the PRDP Enterprise Development (I-REAP) Component, it is necessary for the household survey questionnaire to contain some questions related to the indicators on the I-REAP component as contained in Table 2. Such part of the survey questionnaire will only be asked when dealing with a respondent who is a member of a producer / enterprise group. Given the definition of Project and Non-Project Areas as well as the manner of selecting the 20 respondents in each subproject as explained above, the household survey involving the FMR subprojects shall cover 2,520 respondents (see Table 3).

b. PWS (Level 2). The evaluation approach concerning the PWS subprojects likewise shall adopt “Difference in Difference” evaluation. As of June 2018, PRDP has completed four (4) PWS subprojects. Employing the same criteria for determining Project and Non-Project Areas adopted for FMR subprojects as explained above, however, indicates that only one of the four completed PWS will have a matched subproject. For the four completed PWS subprojects to have matched subprojects, the Project and Non-Project Areas concerning the PWS type of subproject shall be defined as follows: Project Area. The Project Area shall refer to the influence / catchment area (portion of barangay/s) of the PWS facility that has been constructed through the PRDP I-BUILD Component.

Non-Project Area. The Non-Project Area on the other hand shall refer to the influence / catchment area (portion of barangay/s) of the PWS facility that has been constructed through financing outside of the PRDP (LGU, other agency, financing institution, other project/program of the DA, private organization, and others) The selection of matched Non-Project Area for each Project Area shall employ the following criteria: (i) Location:

a. 1st Option: Within the same barangay (outside of the service area of the PRDP PWS subproject);

b. 2nd Option: Outside of the barangay where the PRDP PWS is located (same Municipality);

c. 3rd Option: Outside of the municipality but same province where PRDP PWS is located; and

d. Outside of the province where PRDP PWS is located but within the Region. (ii) Nearest or closest on the following characteristics:

a. Number of units (communal faucets); b. Number of households accessing the facility; and c. Period / Duration (number of days / months) the facility is accessed by the

beneficiaries. Twenty (20) respondents shall be selected as respondents to household survey in each Project or Non-Project Area. In each area, 10 respondents shall be randomly selected from the list of households accessing the facility. The other ten (10) respondents on the other hand shall be randomly chosen from the list of households within the barangay/s where PWS Level 2 unit/s is or are installed but have limited and/or no direct access to any potable water supply in the area.

The evaluation shall cover the following subjects: (i) Within the Project or Non-Project Area covering 20 respondents


28

a. Comparing changes as experienced by the households accessing the completed PWS from “before” (without the PWS scenario) to “after” (installation / construction of PWS); and

b. Comparing changes in the experiences of the households accessing the PWS against other households that have remained to have limited or no direct access to potable water supply in the area (with same periods for comparison e.g. before and after)

(ii) Comparing changes in the Project Area Versus Non-Project Area a. Comparing changes e.g. extent of benefits (based on various parameters /

indicators) experienced by the households accessing the PRDP funded PWS against Non-PRDP funded PWS; and

b. Comparing differences in changes e.g. extent of benefits (based on various parameters / indicators) experienced by the households with access to the PWS against households with limited / no direct access to PWS in Project Area against a Non-Project Area. The hypothetical illustration on how the respondents involving PWS subprojects shall be selected from the Project and Non-Project Areas is exhibited in Figure 2.


29

Given the definition of Project and Non-Project Areas as well as the manner of selecting the 20 respondents for each PWS subproject as explained above, the study shall cover 160 respondents (see Table 4).

c. Other types of rural infrastructures. As of June 2018, PRDP has completed 12 rural infrastructures of various types (slope protection, solar dryer, multi-purpose drying pavement). The Project and Non-Project Areas concerning the other types of rural infrastructures shall be defined as follows. Project Area. The Project Area shall refer to the areas (e.g., segment or entire barangay) that are catered by the facility or specific groups that are identified to benefit from the facility (depending on the type of subproject) that has been constructed through PRDP. . Non-Project Areas. The Non-Project Areas on the other hand shall refer to the municipalities with pipelined and / or approved8 rural infrastructure subprojects for financing under the PRDP as of June 2018 (each has no completed subproject yet). For the purpose of comparison and evaluation between the Project and Non-Project Areas, each Project Area shall have a matched Non-Project Area using the following criteria: (i) Same type of rural infrastructure (e.g. slope protection, solar dryer);

8 The approved subprojects as of June 2018 to be under the Non-Project Areas shall pertain to subprojects that are projected to be completed in Year 2020. This is to ensure that no Non-Project Areas shall have completed subprojects (already posing benefits) by the time the Midterm Study is conducted (e.g., to fall in later part of Year 2018 or early 2019)


30

(ii) Municipality within the same Province (1st Option); or Municipality outside of the Province but within the same Region (2nd Option);

(iii) Closest description of subproject e.g. length of slope protection, area of solar

dryer, number of beneficiaries, others) (iv) Preferably with same commodity/ies supported. In the event that the Non-Project Areas would be less than the number of Project-Areas, some Project Areas that would have no matched non-project areas shall be removed as part of the areas to be covered by the study. This is to ensure that the study shall cover Project Areas and the corresponding matched Non-Project Areas. The selection of 20 respondents in each Project or Non-Project Area shall vary according to type of rural infrastructure as follows.

Slope Protection. In a Project or Non-Project Area, ten (10) respondents shall be randomly chosen from the list of households residing in the areas (with production areas / economic activities) that are considered to be protected from risk of soil erosion with the presence of the slope protection subproject (based on the subproject FS). The other 10 respondents shall be randomly chosen from the households9 within the barangay/s where the facility is constructed (Project Area) / proposed (Non-Project Area) and / or in other barangay that do not or will not benefit from the slope protection. The hypothetical illustration on how the respondents involving a slope protection subproject shall be selected from the Project and Non-Project Areas is exhibited in Figure 3.

9 These refer to households with properties / economic activities that are at exposed to risk of soil in areas without constructed and any proposed slope protection project yet.


31

Solar Dryer / Multi-purpose Drying Pavement. In a Project or Non-Project Area, ten (10) respondents shall be randomly chosen from the list of households residing in the areas (with production areas) who are identified to access or use the solar dryer or multi-purpose drying pavement facility (based on the subproject FS). The other 10 respondents shall be randomly chosen from the households within the barangay/s where the facility is constructed (Project Area) / proposed (Non-Project Area) and / or in other barangay that do not or will not benefit from the solar dryer / multi-purpose drying pavement facility. The hypothetical illustration on how the respondents involving a solar dryer or multi-purpose drying pavement subproject shall be selected from the Project and Non-Project Areas is exhibited in Figure 4.


32

Given the definition of Project and Non-Project Areas as well as the manner of selecting the 20 respondents for each type of rural infrastructure as explained above, the study shall cover 360 respondents covering other types of infrastructures (see Table 5).

Household Survey Among Members of Producer Groups (PGs) Covered by the Study (I-REAP Indicators)

The respondents to a separate concise household survey will be randomly selected from the list of members of the PGs to undergo FGD in the discussion and gathering of information about the indicators under the I-REAP Component as contained in Table 2. The FGD session will run using Guide Questions. The household survey among members shall be undertaken specifically to gather data about the annual income of households engaged in the enterprise (fr on-farm, off-farm and non-farm), value of their marketed outputs and others to include emerging socio-economic benefits of the subprojects (not indicated in the RFAM). The household survey shall take 10 members from each PG to stand as respondents. The respondents will be randomly selected from the list of members across sub-groups or associations (lead group and cluster group/s) of the PG.

Focus Group Discussion (FGD). The PGs that will be involved in the FGD shall come from the Project (Treatment) and Non-Project (Control) Areas, which are defined as follows. Project Areas. Project Areas shall refer to municipalities / cities with enterprise subprojects running (on-going operation) using the interventions provided by the PRDP under the I-REAP Component. These shall involve subprojects into operation that (i) have completed receipt of items, goods, equipment, etc. funded by the project (based on Business Plan of the Proponent Group); and (ii) are underway10 in receiving items, goods, equipment, etc. funded by the project (based on Business Plan of the Proponent Group). Non-Project Areas. Non-Project Areas on the other hand shall refer to municipalities / cities with subprojects either in the pipeline stage or already approved for funding but still in the preparatory requirements prior to implementation. These shall involve PGs that are likely not yet receiving the PRDP interventions by the time of the survey.

For the purpose of comparison and evaluation between the Project and Non-Project Areas (Difference in Difference), each Project Area shall have a matched Non-Project Area using the following criteria: (v) Same type of subproject (micro, small and medium);

(vi) Municipality within the same Province (1st Option); or Municipality outside of

the Province but within the same Region (2nd Option);

(vii) Closest in terms of number of members; and

10 Subprojects that are registered in the PRDP MIS under implementation stage (on-going delivery of items, equipment, goods, etc.)


36

(viii) Preferably with same commodity/ies supported.

By type of enterprise subproject (micro, small or medium), the hypothetical illustration on how the respondents to household survey shall be selected from the Project and Non-Project Areas is exhibited in Figure 5.

Number of PGs and PG members to be covered by the FGD and Household Survey. The PGs of regular I-REAP subprojects (small and medium enterprises) that are operating with the PRDP interventions (completed and on-going implementation / delivery of interventions) and the corresponding matched subprojects shall be the subject of the FGDs (except PGs of the subprojects that would have no matched subprojects / Non-Project Areas) based on the criteria for matching areas mentioned above. For micro enterprise11 type of enterprise subproject, only two subprojects

11 since micro enterprise type of subproject is considered mainly to complement with the effort of the National Government for the speedy recovery of areas hit by natural calamities, the study shall include finding out whether or not or to what extent PRDP intervention has helped a PG in terms of production, marketing, income and others.


37

(project areas) and corresponding two matched subprojects (non-project areas) shall be covered in each Region. The study shall cover 78 PGs employing the criteria for selecting project and non-project areas according to type of subproject considering the portfolio of enterprise subprojects as of June 2018. Of which, 24 PGs shall come from micro, 48 PGs from small and six (6) PGs from medium types of enterprises. Thus, with 10 respondents from each subproject, the household survey among members of PGs will cover 780 respondents12. See Tables 6, 7 and 8 for the Project and Non-Project Areas under Micro, Small and Medium types of enterprises respectively.

12 The PRDP NPCO may provide an adjusted number PGs and respondents to be covered by FGD and household survey during contract negotiation due to: (i) need to take into account the result of the on-going inventory of completed and on-going subprojects that are on-going in the operation of their respective enterprises (using the interventions from the PRDP); (ii) adjustment in the data registered in the PRDP Web-based M&E system involving specific subprojects (if any).
