The agriculture sector growth rate registered during this fiscal year amounted to 8 per cent. This is the right step towards reaching our national food self-sufficiency goal which is currently over 90 percent of all food consumed in the country. Credit goes to all staff of the ministry, its agencies, our development partners and stakeholders who have been working resolutely to make this happen.

It’s also worth to note that these achievements reflect great efforts made by the Government during the third phase of the Strategic Plan for the Agriculture Transformation (PSTA 3) which ends with this fiscal year. This move is both stipulated by the 7-Year Government Program and the National Strategy for Transformation (NST1).

As we closes this fiscal year, we are cheerful to roll out our brand new Strategic Plan for Agricultural Transformation Phase IV (PSTA 4), which builds on the achievements of the implementation of previous strategies.

PSTA 4 sets out ambitious but not insurmountable plans to turn around the sector and transform it into a knowledge-based value creating sector that contributes to the national economy and ensures food and nutrition security by 2024. To be achieved, the development of new tools, new technologies with potential to mitigate production constraints need to be introduced. This will ease and enable the achievement of the sector targets.

We have full confidence in the long-standing collaboration with our partners and stakeholders. The experience from the past years assures us that there is a solid resolve to move fast forward to unlock our potential and tackle some of the existing challenges in our farming systems.

Let me once again show my gratitude by thanking each and every one of our partners and stakeholders for their precious contribution to what we have been able to achieve during this fiscal year in particular, and over the previous PSTA 3 period.

I continue to count on your unrelenting collaboration and support as we move to the next step of our agriculture transformation journey.

Dr. Gerardine MUKESHIMANAMinister of Agriculture and Animal Resources

Rwanda’s agriculture transformation agenda is on the move. The country’s tremendous achievements registered in the agriculture sector have translated into improved livelihoods of Rwandan population as our food security got strengthened even more than previous years. This optimistic trend is well-documented in the 2017-2018 fiscal year report, which I am honored to present to you.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARYThe agricultural sector is of critical importance for the economic development, poverty reduction, and nutritional security of Rwanda. The sector contributed 31 per cent to the national Gross Domestic Product during 2017-2018 fiscal year. This annual report highlights key achievements of the agriculture sector of Rwanda in FY 2017/18 which also marks the end of the third Strategic Plan for Agriculture Transformation (PSTA 3). The Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI) is transitioning from the implementation of PSTA 3 to its fourth edition PSTA 4. Within the new framework of PSTA 4, the role of the Government will be shifting from that of driver to that of an enabler of the agricultural development. This is evidenced by the fact that MINAGRI has been increasingly working with diverse stakeholders of the Agriculture sector, namely Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), NGOs, Development Partners and the private sector. This commitment to have private sector led agriculture is documented in the officially published National Agriculture Policy (NAP, 2018) and PSTA 4.

The 2017/18 fiscal year was marked by the development of PSTA 4 as well as the finalization of the new National Agriculture Policy. PSTA 4 outlines priority investments needed in agriculture and estimates required resources for the execution of the strategy throughout the period going from 2018 to 2024. The PSTA 4 builds on the achievements of the PSTA 3, while envisioning a transformation of agriculture from a subsistence sector to a knowledge-based value creating sector, that contributes to the national economy and ensures food and nutrition security. The strategy has a strong focus on private investments. There is a tacit recognition in the document that the growth of the agriculture sector must be driven by investments of private actors. PSTA 4 is built on 4 priority areas, namely:

§Innovation and extension services§Productivity and resilience§Inclusive markets and value addition§Enabling environment and responsive institutions

This fiscal year has seen increased development of Agriculture related infrastructures to support productivity and commercialization of agriculture outputs. Given that 90% of domestic cropland is on slopes, hence investing in land management structures is central to improving productivity. The total soil conservation and land husbandry is currently at 932,282 ha and 118,392.4 ha of land under progressive and radical terraces respectively, of which 8,678 ha of progressive and 8,351 ha of radical terraces were developed in this financial year. Irrigation schemes has allowed farmers to move from rain-fed agriculture to diversified, high value crops hence resulting to increased cropping intensity and land productivity The country has registered

52,175 ha under irrigation - including 36,521 ha of marshlands, 8,780 ha of hillsides and 6,874 ha of small scale irrigation sites; 1,367 ha of hillside irrigation; 703 ha of marshland rehabilitated and 2,300 ha developed under small scale irrigation. The total of annual achievement of area under irrigation is 2,070 ha, which is a 78% achievement from the set annual target FY 2017/18.The Ministry continued efforts to contribute to social protection and nutrition through GIRINKA, One Cup of Milk per Child and Kitchen Garden promotion programs. So far 327,846 cows have been distributed under GIRINKA since its inception. The Program in fiscal year 2017/18 targeted the distribution of 31,405 cows to poor households. By June 2018, 30,616 cows had been distributed to the poor families, which is a 97.48 % achievement.

The agriculture export commodities generated $ 515.9 million through export of traditional and non-traditional export commodities representing 31.2% and 68.8% respectively. The revenues generated from the export of Agricultural export products for the FY 2017-2018 was $ 515.9 million compared to $ 356.5 million of the FY 2016-2017 indicating an increase of 44.71%. Regarding food security mechanism, the Government through its National Strategic Grain Reserves Project registered an 11,682.5 MT of storage (7,571.4 MT of maize and 4,111.1 MT of beans) and the total capacity of storage constructed is estimated to 311,795 MT. At District level a stock of 67,609.7 MT was registered (53,388.6 MT of maize and 14,221.1 MT of beans). Thus the total available strategic reserve of maize and beans at the end of FY 2017-18 was 79,292.2 MT, which is 66% of the annual target (120,000 MT). Proposed technical actions to increase National food reserves of maize and beans are recommended: a) train farmers on storage management and pest control, b) availing additional warehouses for storage purposes and c) collect data on maize and beans stored by private companies. Given that the Agriculture sector will continue to be instrumental to realize the country’s objectives as specified in Vision 2020 and NST1 (National Strategy for Transformation, 1), the Government of Rwanda through the Ministry of Agriculture and Animal resources will continue to put efforts in the sector.

The agriculture sector is credited in playing a major role in nationwide poverty decline, generation of foreign exchange and supplying 75% of raw materials for industry purposes. Poverty reduction is currently at 39.1% from 44.9% in 2011. In 2017 the agricultural sector GDP grew by 7%, and contributed 31% of the national Gross Domestic Product (NISR, 2017/18).

Figure 1: Share in GDP

The full count of agriculture activities including agriculture employment and subsistence foodstuff production reveals that in February 2018, 3.9 million people representing 58 % of working age population were engaged in agriculture activities in one way or the other.

Of noteworthy remarks, the rebound of the agriculture growth to 8% is remarkable with an impressive 12% growth for the livestock program and 14% growth of exports crop1. Food Security situation came back to a pre-crisis situation with a proportion of food insecure households at 18.7% according to the CARI indicator reported under the CFSVA 2018.

Agriculture policy orientation

The vision as stated in the revised National Agriculture Policy (NAP, 2018) is to have a nation that enjoys food security, nutritional health and sustainable agricultural growth from a productive, green and market-led agriculture sector. The mission of the sector is to “ensure food and nutrition security of Rwandans by using modern agribusiness technologies, professionalizing farmers in terms of production, commercialization of the outputs and then creating a competitive agriculture sector”. In order to fulfill the National Agriculture policy (NAP, 2018), the Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI) has developed its fourth Strategy Plan for Agriculture Transformation (PSTA 4) to promote the growth of the agriculture sector in partnership with the private sector.

CHAPTER 1: AGRICULTURE DEVELOPMENT 1.1. Agricultural land use

1.1.1. Land consolidated by crop in 2018A&B compared to 2017A&B

Due to the growing demographic pressure on land, the agricultural lands in Rwanda are highly fragmented. Since the use of inputs such as the improved seeds and fertilizer can be translated into profitability for smallholder farmers only if the land fragmentation is overcome, the land use patterns need to be organized. Through the Crop Intensification Program, the land use successfully rearranged in a synchronized fashion to grow specific food crops and hence improves the productivity and environmental sustainability.

The table below summarizes the land consolidated for priority crops during 2017-2018 FY, compared to 2016-2017 baseline and annual targets:

1.1.2. Soil conservation and Land husbandry

Since 90% of domestic cropland is on slopes ranging from 5% to 55%, investing in land management structures is central to improving productivity. This makes radical terraces development, accompanied by soil fertility management and soil erosion control a priority for every fiscal year. For less steep slopes progressive terracing and agroforestry have proven successful in reducing erosion and increasing the economic returns from the land. During 2017-2018 FY, 8,351 ha of radical terraces and 8,678 ha of progressive terraces have been developed at national level, and this led to a cumulative area of 118,399 Ha under radical terraces and 932,282 hectares under progressive terraces.

1.1.3. Irrigation development

Irrigation allows farmers to move from rain-fed agriculture, to diversified, high value crops, thus increasing cropping intensity and land productivity. Therefore irrigation development remains a key priority for the Ministry of Agriculture. During 2017-2018 FY, (i) 703 ha of marshlands were rehabilitated (435 ha of Migina and 268 ha of Kabuye marshalands). (ii) 1,367 ha of Muyanza hillside developed, and (iii) 2,300 ha under SSIT irrigation developed.

The total land under irrigation is estimated to 52,175 ha by end June 2018 which is composed of 36,521 ha of marshlands, 8,780ha of hillside and 6,874 ha of SSIT developed.

a) Export Targeted Modern Irrigated Agricultural ETI

The Export Targeted Modern Irrigated Agricultural (ETI) Project, is financed by EXIM Bank of India through a Line of Credit of USD 120.05 Million, aiming to deliver on the following components: (1) Irrigation and integrated watershed development for Mpanga and Mahama sectors in Kirehe district for a potential area extended on 3390 Ha, (2) Construction of state of art Centre of excellence in farm mechanization to support research and development , (3) Tomato processing plant with a daily capacity to treat 80MT, as a valorization complement to the yield from the irrigated land, (4) Solar powered plant with a capacity to generate 3 MW and (5) capacity building program for sustainability and management purpose. Detailed Project Reports-DPR were completed and validated for each of the listed above component. The physical development of Mpanga irrigation and watershed development stands at 38%, both parts of Mahama 1 & 2 and Tomato processing plant were at final stage of procurement by end June 2018.

b) Nasho Irrigation Scheme by HGBF

The irrigation project initiated by HGBF has following components: productive investment, aiming to boost agricultural productivity through a holistic approach accounting for the multiple stages of crop production and value chain development at the project site/area. Investment includes irrigation, mechanization, and improved access to inputs, post-harvest infrastructure, processing and value addition, and farmers’ training.

Through this project, 1,173 ha have been sustainably managed and operated by smallholders to improve their production. Maintenance of irrigation infrastructures has been done at 100 %.For 2,537 farmers mobilized, 75% of them have purchased seeds and fertilizers for their plot to increase soil productivity. The table 4 shows the average yield obtained after the use of fertilizers.

Extension services by field technicians is being promoted in order to allow knowledge transfer for both center pivot irrigation systems and albeit use of inputs within pivots. However, flooding and siltation are among the threat, so that quick win solutions were proposed and implemented through a joint collaboration with Ministry of Agriculture and local government.

1.1.4. Agriculture Mechanization

Agriculture mechanization is among the key technological pillar to boost the yield production by minimizing the harvest and post-harvest losses while saving the human and investment capitals in farm operation. In partnership with private mechanization service providers, the sub-sector has increased the land tilled using machine from 35,000 to 41,010 Ha. Secondary, 2000 farmers were trained on use of machinery in various farm operation, 200 tractors operators and 150 agronomists were also trained through the conducted on farm demonstration campaigns. In order to enable the affordability of the on farm operation, 9 service provider companies were contracted to exclude VAT from the charges to be applied to the farmer.

In collaboration with the private service providers, new post-harvest technologies were developed, disseminated and adopted by 12 rice cooperatives and 7 maize growers’ cooperatives. These consist of harvesters, threshers and winnowing machines for rice and wheat plantation. On the other hand, construction of Mechanization Centre of excellence was started effective from October 2017, by Techno-Fab Company, as a component under the Line of Dollar Credit of 120.5 million of USD. The research and development Centre is expected to be a regional hub for innovation and development of new prototype of farm machinery, testing and technology expansion. The civil works for building construction stands at 10%, while the Datasheets for agricultural mechanized equipment to be bought from India were at approval process by June 2018, with an overall project rating at 20%.

1.2. Agricultural inputs

1.2.1. Access to Agriculture Inputs: Seed

Access to improved seeds to our farmers is one pillar of the crop intensification program. A half of required seed of Maize, Wheat and Soya during season A&B 2018 are from import regardless of the country of origin.

Considering the table above, the seed produced locally are covering 51.5% (2,242.2 MT) of the total seed demand in the country (in both seasons). The Government of Rwanda committed to reduce the dependence on inputs importation especially on seed sub-sector and a target was set for 2020/21 with a clear exit strategy responding to this pledge. It considers key priority cereals (hybrid and open pollinated varieties maize, rice and wheat), oil and pulses (soybean), roots and tubers (cassava and Irish potato) and Banana.

Main interventions tackled by this strategy are the strengthening of seed regulations: for instance Ministerial order no 015/11.30 of 06/11/2017 determining modalities for lodging an objection to the application for plant breeders’ rights, published in official gazette no 46 of 13/11/2017, to build capacity of seed multipliers and avail materials from research for multiplication and dissemination, to establish private led seed industry that smooth the logistics facilities that previously caused heavy cost to the country due to delays in the importation and distribution process in and outside the country.

It is worthy to note that at the end of 2018-2019 FY, RAB recorded 232 active seed multipliers operating in different value chains including maize, rice, beans, wheat, Irish potato and soybean.

The quota of fertilizer distribution and used (55,151.7 MT) as recorded by the districts through MINAGRI MIS system is much higher than the quota distributed through the Smart Nkunganire/ Subsidy scheme (43,522.4 MT). This emphasizes on the improvement on the fertilizer awareness and application by the farmers (smallholder and big farmers) on various crop value chains.

During 2017-2018 FY, the quantities of compost and lime used by farmers were 40,070 and 19,808.3 MT respectively; it was mainly used in the districts having high soil acidity.

1.3. Access to Advisory services and extension

Twigire Muhinzi is a homegrown extension model through which Extension services are delivered to farmers. These extension services include advice on good agricultural practices (GAP) by distribution of agriculture extension materials and conducting technological trainings that help farmers to increase their crop production and productivity.

During the year 2017 -18, extension services were delivered through training of extension agents (Farmers promoters, FFS facilitators., SEDOs, Sector agronomists), focusing on CIP priority crops, Crop protection and Smart Nkunganire system, establishment of demo plots and Farmer Field Schools (FFs) plots. Extension agents also received incentives such as extension training manuals and guides, T-shirts, Caps, protection masks, gaggles and inputs for establishment of demonstration plots.

1.5. Pest and disease management

For pests and diseases management, farmers are advised to use non-chemical control practices (Cultural, physical, mechanical control and use of biological control) before chemical control options because they are inexpensive and safe to humans, farm animals and the environment. Farmers are advised to do regular field monitoring to check if there are no pests in their field. Many interventions were done during 2017-2018 FY through field visits, meetings and community works in affected areas to manage identified pests, especially Fall Armyworm (FAW). As strategic stock of pesticides, around 4,950 liters of pesticides were purchased to manage pests especially maize stalk borer and fall army warm. During 2018B season, on 6,234.5 ha of Maize affected by FAW, over 96% were managed and treated and affected crops were recovered. Over 1,616 liters of different pesticides including Cypermethrine, Cypermethrin+Profenofos, Pyrethrum, and Imidachloprid were distributed to farmers in affected areas to manage FAW and other insect pests. Many Trainings of Extension agents on good agriculture practices and on different pest and diseases were conducted. Due to the outbreak of Fall Armyworm (FAW), training was focused on this pest and around 13,090 farmer promoters, 1800 FFS facilitators, 392 sector agronomists, 1,900 SEDOs, 451 Agro-dealers and other extension agents (especially CIP focal persons) were trained during 18A & B seasons on the management of the above mentioned pest. Moreover, about 212 extension agents including sector and district agronomists, farmers and agro-dealers were trained on Pesticides Safe use, handling and self-protection in Nyagatare, Kamonyi, Muhanga, Nyanza, Gisagara and Nyamagabe districts.

CHAPTER 2. AGRICULTURE AND LIVESTOCK RESEARCH AND INNOVATION

2.1. Cereals Program

2.1.1. Rice Sub-Program

During 2017/18 fiscal year, 10 best varieties were advanced and promoted to be tested in Ruhango and Nyamasheke districts, regions with severe low night temperatures. In order to support seed system, the seed production was conducted at Cyimpima (Rwamagana), Cyili (Gisagara) and Bugarama (Rusizi).

15 varieties were purified using one row per panicle approach and breeder seeds for each variety were availed for foundation seeds production and 10 tons were distributed to private seeds producers for certified seeds production. The total certified seeds produced by the private seed producers were 287 tons.

2.1.2. Maize Sub-Program

Thirteen (13) new maize hybrid varieties were selected for final verification from advanced yield trials conducted both in mid and high altitudes.

In total, 150 kg of breeder’s seeds, 1,200 kg of pre-basic seeds and 10,400 kg of basic seeds were produced. The total certified seeds produced by the seed producers were 1,889 MT.

In the context of technology transfer, around seventy seed producers were trained both in class and on field in hybrid seed production procedures. Furthermore, four seed producers that comprised: RISCO (Rwanda Improved Seed Company Ltd), IABM (Iterambere ry’Abahinzi ba Makera), Rumbuka Seeds Ltd and EMFAGM (Ebenezer Mixed Farming & General Merchandise Ltd) were backstopped for certified seed production.

2.1.3. Wheat subprogram

During the 2017/2018 fiscal year efforts have been put in place to reduce the country’s reliance on seeds imports through local seed production. In this respect 3,418 kg of pre-basic seeds and 40 MT of certified seeds were produced. 10 best performing varieties completed on farm trials and are now ready for release. Innovation platforms (IPs) have been used as an agricultural extension tool to encourage easy adoption of agricultural innovation by farmers. Three wheat innovations platforms were established in Cyumba (Gicumbi), Butaro (Burera) and Gataraga

Page 28: ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 - minagri.prod.risa.rw · i September 2018 Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI) REPUBLIC OF RWANDA ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018

(Musanze). In total, the IPs comprised 137 members of which 101 are male and 36 female. In these IPs, 13 demo plots and five farmer field schools (FFS) were also established.

2.2. Roots and tubers

2.2.1. Cassava Sub program

The Sub program produced 89,690,000 cuttings were produced, certified as quality declared seeds (QDS) and distributed to farmers across the country. Cassava research and technology transfer focused on (i) increasing Cassava genotypes diversity for breeding activities; (ii) the development and dissemination of high yielding and disease tolerant cassava varieties and (iii) assessment of the incidence of pests and diseases and their effects on crop)

(i) Increasing Cassava genotypes diversity for breeding activities- Introduction and test of promising clones for major agro-ecologies of Rwanda: In total,

3400 plantlets of 17 selected clones from 5 countries (Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, Malawi and Mozambique) were introduced and their evaluation is ongoing at Rubona research station.

(ii) Development and dissemination of high yielding and disease tolerant cassava varieties- On farm trials (participatory variety selection) comprising five 5 pre-release cassava

clones (01/1206/75; MM 98/3567; Ndamirabana/7; RWACASS-016-01; Gahene/2) were planted in farmer’s fields in 8 cassava growing Districts (Nyamasheke, Nyanza, Ruhango, Kamonyi, Bugesera, Nyagatare, Gicumbi and Gakenke.

2.2.2. Sweet potato Sub-program

17 selected varieties were multiplied with more focus on orange-fleshed sweetpotato rich in vitamin A, which are Cacearpedo, Vita, Kabode, Terimbere (RW11-2560), Ndamirabana (RW11-2910) and Gihingamukungu. In total, 10330 plantlets were hardened from TC. 64,800 cuttings (pre-basic) and 13 millions of cuttings (basic) were multiplied and availed to DVMs and farmers, respectively. Fifteen (15) new OFSP varieties were introduced from Mozambique for evaluation and test tasting. 95 DVMs were trained in agronomic practices and quality seed production.

2.2.3. Irish Potato sub program

The potato sub-program has carried out various trials including National performance trials of new five pre-released potato clones (CIP393280.64, CIP393371.58, CIP393077.159, CIP396018.241, and CIP398190.615).

11

The fiscal year 2017-2018, the in vitro tissue culture has produced 2,126,577 potato plantlets including 572,216 plantlets for mother plantlets and potato germplasm conservation, and 1,554,361 plantlets for most popular released potato varieties in Rwanda. In addition to plantlets sold to private seed multipliers holding greenhouses, the remaining plantlets have been used to produce 3,576,000 minitubers through conventional greenhouse, aeroponic greenhouse and direct transfer of plantlets under field conditions. These minitubers produced can cover 72 ha for pre-basic seed production.

2.3. Horticulture Program

Production of clean seed of Tamarillo: Large plantations of tamarillo, totalising 7 ha, were established in RAB centres of Ntendezi, Gishwati, Kinigi, and Rwerere. As result, a total of 50 kg of seeds was distributed in major production districts of tamarillo, which can cover 1,650 ha when planted. The districts which received the seeds are: Nyaruguru, Nyamagabe, Kamonyi and Nyanza in Southern province, Gakenke, Gicumbi, Rulindo,Burera and Musanze in Northern Province and Rusizi, Nyamasheke, Ngororero and Rutsiro in Western province. The highest disease control on leaves was observed with Daconil and Copper Hydroxide, which reduced the disease incidence to 20% and 25% respectively as compared to the control with 56%.

Horticulture technology transfer: Horticulture Centre of Excellence

The Rwanda-Israel Horticulture Center of Excellence (HCoE) is a bilateral initiative between the Government of Rwanda and the State of Israel. The HCoE provides a suitable platform for a rapid transfer of knowhow on modern Israeli agro-technologies and agricultural best-practices to farmers namely the production of vegetables using improved varieties in greenhouses, walk-in-tunnels; net house and open areas, the use of modern irrigation systems and fertigation, and their adaptation to local conditions and the farmer’s requirements.

From October 2017, the Centre started the production and selling of different improved varieties of vegetables from Israel such as tomatoes, sweet and hot peppers, onions, cabbages, brocolli, cauliflower, eggplants, zucchini, cucumbers, watermelon, melon, basil and herb varieties are the milestones so far achieved. As a result of these demonstration fields, more than 12 vegetables varieties are tested and 90 tons of vegetables harvested are sold to the local market.

The project team and MASHAV experts provided training to 67 extension staff from different stakeholders. It’s also in this context that more than 300 farmers and investors received informal training through the study tours in the Centre of Excellence and some of them are linked with irrigation kits suppliers and also with the seeds companies.

2.3.1. Banana program

Banana research and technology transfer activities focused on germplasm conservation, introduction of new varieties, seed production, banana rehabilitation and disease control. To keep local germplasm diversity for future breeding, banana research maintained two field germplasm collections with 111 and 117 varieties in Rubona and Ngoma, respectively. Twenty-nine new cooking banana varieties were introduced from the National Agricultural Research Organization, Uganda and IITA that had developed them from breeding using East African banana parents. Varieties included three PITA-s and 26 NARITA-s series that have good cooking quality attributes. A field experiment was established in Rubona to evaluate their yield potential. Limited seed production of suckers was done. A total of 5,000 suckers was produced in Rubona and disseminated to farmers in the Southern Province. About 80 seed multipliers were involved in certified seed production, mostly in Eastern Province. They have the capacity to provide about 140,000 suckers from their banana fields. Disseminated varieties included Injagi (cooking), Mpologoma (cooking), FHIA 17 (cooking and dessert) and FHIA 25 (juice).

Banana rehabilitation was done for more than 5,000 ha through district and sector support and organization of banana rehabilitation campaigns, mainly through Army week activities. Banana wilt, the most serious and epidemic banana disease, was controlled through organization of banana wilt control campaigns with support from districts and sectors. A total of 21,000 farmers were involved in banana wilt control campaigns.

With regard to rhizobium production, 50 indigenous rhizobia strains originating from major common bean and soybean growing areas in Rwanda have been isolated and characterized. Ten (10) indigenous rhizobia strains were first tested and compared with the commonly used USDA 110 (exotic strain).

A total of 3,482 packs of rhizobia inoculants for both bean and soybean were produced and used for research and sold to bean and soybean growers. In both seasons A and B, the subprogram produced 293 kg of breeder’s seeds, 2,167 kg of pre-basic seeds and 15,291 kg of basic seeds.In total, 100 soybean farmers and seed producers were trained in classrooms and at demonstration plots established in big consolidated sites at Kayonza, Gatsibo, Nyagatare and Ngoma.

2.3.3. Industrial Crops

a. Coffee sub-program

For the 2017/2018 fiscal year, research activities under the coffee sub-programme were centered on research projects aiming at mainstreaming climate change into the coffee sector. i) All coffee growing zones also showed a high level of antestia bug populations (more than 3 bugs per tree on average). The stem borer of coffee was prevalent, mostly, in Eastern Province. Climate change adaptation practices including, mulching, shading, pest and disease management, erosion control, and organic and inorganic fertilization were applied at a low level.

i) Five out of eleven F1 hybrids that were developed in 2012 have been evaluated for field performance. These hybrids are: BM139x6A, BM139XRUIRU11, BM139X5A, BM139XBATIAN, Jacksonx6A, Jackson x 5A.

ii) Basic-seed multiplication. For 2017/2018, seed gardens for released varieties were maintained. 200 kg of a newly released RABC 15 variety were produced and supplied to farmers. This amount can produce 600,000 seedlings and plant around 240 ha. On the other hand, 2,500 kg of clean seed from traditional varieties (BM139 and Jackson 1257) were produced and supplied to farmers. This amount of seeds can produce 7,500,000 seedlings and plant around 3,000 ha of land.

b) Tea clones evaluated for yield and quality under different growing locations

i. Evaluation of newly introduced clones

The aim of the activity was to evaluate the adaptability of tea clones UTK 9710342, UTK 9400247 and UTK401658 newly introduced to Rwanda by Unilever Tea Company in December 2016 and

Page 32: ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 - minagri.prod.risa.rw · i September 2018 Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI) REPUBLIC OF RWANDA ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018

14

which were planted on field at Kibeho and Munini in October 2017 (Season 2018 A). The two sites were distant of about 10 Km.

ii. Progress

The first evaluation was done at 6 months after plantation and consisted of collection of tea growth parameter data, including plant height, stem girth, branch and leaf development. The new clones were planted along with locally adapted clones, namely TRFK 31/8, TRFK 11/4 and TRFK 6/8. Field data collection was done at Munini site only as the field comprised all three local tea clones. The area planted with tea covered 35 ha at the two sites. Data were taken considering three replicates under CRD within a radius of 1 km with assumption that soil heterogeneity in the area was not significant.

Assessment showed that UTK 9710342 was most performing (well established and highly branching) of all evaluated clones.

Figure 2: Status of young tea (6 months old) growing at Munini (Nyaruguru) site. UTK401658 was averagely performing on the same level as TRFK 31/8, TRFK 11/4 and TRFK 6/8. Clone UTK 9400247 had not survived from the nursery and was not planted on field. Current observations confirm previous (2016/2017 and early 2017/2018) nursery assessment whereby evaluation had showed that the tea clone UTK 9710342 was highly performing compared to those that were locally adapted such as TRFK 31/8, TRFK 11/4 and TRFK 6/8 raised in the same nursery. The clone UTK 9400247 had shown very poor performance in the nursery.

2.3.4. Cross cutting programs

a. Genebank Programs

In the context of the conservation of plant genetic resources ( PGRs), the following was achieved: (1) passport data for 43 collected plant genetic resources were entered into computer for better management, (2) 48 accessions of different plant genetic resources (2 accessions of rice; 2 for

Page 33: ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 - minagri.prod.risa.rw · i September 2018 Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI) REPUBLIC OF RWANDA ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018

15

maize; 2 for wheat; 2 for sorghum; 20 for beans and 10 for taro), were explored and collected , (3) 19 identified plant genetic resources were planted in their appropriate chosen sites at Rubona; Karama and Rwerere for characterization, seeds increase and regeneration, (4) 104 accessions of banana; 24 accessions of horticulture crops; 171 accessions of sweet potato and 201 of coffee were maintained as field genebanks, (5) 192 and 209 different plant genetic resources were respectively tested for moisture content and germination rate. For forest genetic resources conservation (FGRs), 15 forest genetic resources were collected and conserved. For animal genetic resources conservation (AnGRs), 37 inkungu (traditional cows without horns) and 145 “Inyambo” (traditional cows with long horns) were kept for conserving traditional cow breeds and two “Inyambo” young bulls were acquired, cared for and trained for semen production in replacement of the previous old ones.

b. Biotechnology Program

The biotechnology program conducted research for development a long plant tissue culture, plant disease diagnostics and disease surveillance. In tissue culture, two main activities were carried out: 1) Optimization of protocols for production, in vitro, of some important crops and 2) mass production of disease free planting materials whose in vitro regeneration protocols were concluded in the previous years. Specifically, two protocols optimized were for cassava (mainly the newly introduced clones) and coffee hybrids. In the process of optimizing cassava protocol, 76,849 plantlets were produced and 18,419 plantlets were produced while optimizing coffee hybrids. Clearly, these numbers indicate that the protocols are ready, and amenable, for in vitro mass production of the respective crops. Mass production of plantlets using previously developed protocols yielded 59,420 plantlets of banana and 62,409 plantlets of sweet potato. All these plantlets are later subjected to macropropagation by the respective commodity programs to obtain large quantities of planting materials for dissemination to farmers.

c. Soil and Water Management Program

During the fiscal year 2017-2018, the program came up with promising site-specific fertilizer formulas recommended for increasing productivity and profitability of rice, maize and Irish potato by taking into account macro and micronutrients. Fertilizer formulas were blended and used for establishing demonstration trials in different sites of the country to serve as learning sites for scaling out. The purpose of the demonstration trials was to create awareness of the performance of balanced blended fertilizers against the commonly used fertilizer recommendations. In this line, a total of 200 demonstration trials were established in 2018A across the country and farmer and other stakeholder evaluations of the performance of the demonstration trials were collected through organized field visits.

Page 34: ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 - minagri.prod.risa.rw · i September 2018 Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI) REPUBLIC OF RWANDA ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018

16

The findings from demonstration trials of blended RAB developed formulas on Irish potato, rice, and maize have shown high yield performance due to a combination of macronutrients and micronutrients. The Value Cost Ratio of these fertilizer formulas has shown that they can generate a profit to the farmers. Although addition of secondary and micronutrients requires more capital investment, it’s induced high yield lead to profitability which compensates the allocated investment. The evaluated RAB blended fertilizer formulas and their relative suitability for potato were13N-26P-18K+3S+0.3Zn+0.1 B +0.1 Cu in volcanic soils (Musanze, Nyabihu and Rubavu) and13N- 26K-18P+3S+0.3Zn+0.1 B +0.1 Cu + dolomite in non-volcanic soils (Rulindo, Burera and Gicumbi, Nyaruguru and Nyamagabe). For rice the blend fertilizer formula 12N-20P-20K +5S + 0.3 Zn + 0.2B, 0.2 Cu is suitable for marshlands of Eastern and Southern and the formula 12N-20P-20K +5S + 0.3 Zn + 0.2B is appropriate for Bugarama in Western Province. For maize the formulas 18-33-0-6S-0.4Zn-0.2B-0.2Cu + dolomite is suitable in southern province (Nyanza, Ruhango, Muhanga, Gisagara, and Kamonyi districts) and Eastern province while the formula 13-24-16-4S-0.3Zn-0.2B-0.2Cu + dolomite is suitable in Nyaruguru district. In volcanic soils, the formula 18-33-0-6S-0.4Zn-0.2B-0.2Cu was found performing well while in non-volcanic soils (Gakenke, Rulindo, Burera and Gicumbi) and west province (Ngororero, Rutsiro, Karongi, Nyabihu, Rusizi) the formula 13-24-16-4S-0.3Zn-0.2B-0.2Cu + dolomite is the most suitable.

During farmer field days organized in different agricultural zones of the country, participants especially farmers appreciated the efficacy of these fertilizers on increasing crop yield and expressed the need for their availability on the market. Based on the findings on demonstration trials and on-farm observations during farmer field days, it was recommended to:

- facilitate farmers access to the RAB fertilizer recommended formulas;

- facilitate private sector to invest in fertilizer blending industry in Rwanda;

- stimulate farmer demand through wide-scale demonstrations of improved formulas while supplying these fertilizers to farmers;

- upscale the products for wide number of beneficiaries;

- accompany the dissemination of the products with further research on technology behaviour, its adoption and farmers perception;

- develop and avail fertilizers formulas for other crops

d. Agroforestry ProgramDuring the fiscal year 2017/18, the role of agroforestry in improving crop productivity was sought through 421 farms trials established in Bugesera, Nyabihu and Rubavu district. These trials included 138 tree biomass incorporation trials, 103 soil conservation trials, 122 trials of wood stakes for climbing beans and 58 trials of fruit species for food and income generation. Of the farmers participating in the farm trials, profiling was made for 120 famers.

Page 35: ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 - minagri.prod.risa.rw · i September 2018 Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI) REPUBLIC OF RWANDA ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018

17

Towards scaling up and out appropriate agroforestry options, communities were mobilized to implement agroforestry through sensitization meetings and Umuganda. Three Innovation Platforms (IPs) were established in Bugesera and cross learning activities between new IPs and pre-existing ones were initiated. Nearly 5,343 households were incentivized through the supply and planting of nearly 200,000 tree seedlings and 37,500 improved fruit tree seedlings supplied from managed Rural Resource Centres and satellite nurseries. Awareness campaigns on the role of agroforestry for improved food security and resilient livelihoods were conducted targeting smallholder farmers. In Bugesera, nearly 2,542 farmers (1,444 males, 1,098 females) were reached out. In Nyabihu and Rubavu, 565 farmers were sensitized through Umuganda and 155 farmers (comprising 82 males and 73 females) attended training sessions on agroforestry.

2.4. Animal resources research

For the fiscal year 2017/2018 livestock has focused on three (3) components: Reproductive performance of Ankole cattle and its crossbreds in Rwanda; Milk production and lactation length of Ankole cattle and its crossbreds in Rwanda; Evaluating the success rates of Embryo transfer in recipient cows under field conditions in Rwanda.

2.4.1. Reproductive performance of Ankole cattle and its crossbreds in Rwanda

The study was done to assess the reproductive performance of Ankole cattle and its crossbreds with Friesian (F), Jersey (J), and Sahiwal (S). The traits (number of records) studied were calving to first insemination, CFI (797); calving to last insemination, CLI (797); conception rate, CR (4354); number of inseminations, NINS (936); and calving interval, CI (259).

The observations and least square of the conception rate showed an improving tendency across years and was within acceptable levels, an indication of gradual improvement in the herd performance. Although compared to other breed groups, purebred Ankole had longer CFI, CLI, and CI; intervals for these traits were longer than desirable for all breed groups. This result was obtained from the following crossbreds:

2.4.2. Milk production and lactation length of Ankole cattle and its crossbreds in Rwanda

This study was to assess the daily milk yield (DMY), 100-day (MY100) and 305-day (MY305) milk yields, and lactation length (LL) for purebred Ankole and their crossbreds, and influence of environmental factors on these traits.

The results obtained, indicate that breed group effect was significant for all four traits studied. The breed group AA significantly differed from all crossbreds with lowest milk yield and longer (albeit not significantly) lactation length. Among the crossbreds there was no significant difference between AF, AJxS and ASxJ, nor between AS and ASxS.

Page 36: ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 - minagri.prod.risa.rw · i September 2018 Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI) REPUBLIC OF RWANDA ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018

18

The better performance of AF, AJxS and ASxJ is perhaps due the higher milk production potential of Holstein Friesian and Jersey, thus the crossbreds with Ankole excelled both due to heterotic effect and additive effect. From this study it can be concluded that, Ankole × Friesian and Ankole × Jersey crosses can be beneficial even under a management system of limited nutrition in Rwanda.

2.4.3. Evaluating the success rates of Embryo transfer in recipient cows under field conditions in Rwanda

The success rates within the MOET industry, as measured by the mean number of embryos recovered per donor or by conception rates following embryo transfer, have changed very little over the years. In the present study, fresh embryos were non-surgically produced in the cattle genetic improvement research farm at Songa station. Then, the imported Jersey frozen embryos were also used with the purpose of fresh and frozen-thawed embryo transfer in two different sites (RAB-Songa station and Nyanza small holder farms in the southern Province of Rwanda). The experiment was involving 88 recipient candidates, where 51 successfully received the embryos, on a period of 4 months.

CHAPTER 3: LIVESTOCK, FISHERY AND AQUACULTURE3.1. National Livestock Population

The population for cattle has slightly increased by 2.4 percent between 2014 and 2017. The cattle population reduced by 4 percent from 2016 to 2017. Goat and pig population has been on an increasing trend between 2013 and 2017, where goat population increased by 13.75 percent while that of pigs increase by 30.90 percent, for the same period. From 2016 to 2017, goat population increased by 12.2 per cent while pig population increased by 1.9 percent. Rabbits and poultry population also increased between 2013 and 2017, by 21.9 percent 9.79 percent, respectively. However, between 2016 and 2017, rabbit population decreased by 2.9 percent. Sheep population recorded a continued decline, where from 2013 to 2017, it decreased by 20 percent.

Source: MINAGRI, 2017

As shown in table 11above, in 2018 there were 1,293,768 cattle. The country counts 2,731,795 goats, 601,836 sheep, 1,330,461 pigs, 1,264,734 rabbits and 5,442,152 poultry (layers, broilers and indigenous chicken).

3.2. Livestock policy, strategy and regulatory framework.

In 2017-2018 fiscal year, a Livestock Sector Development Framework (LSDF) that provides a skeleton for the Livestock Sector Analysis (LSA) were developed, and followed by developing a Livestock Sector Analysis (LSA) which constitutes a long-term 15-years sector modernization strategy for the sector, and then, the LSA provided the basis for 5-year targeting and scenario analysis of investment intervention options (both policy and technology) in the Livestock Master Plan (LMP). The Livestock Master Plan (LMP) is a series of five-year investment roadmaps that guide the Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI) to implement national programme to further modernize and transform the Rwandan livestock sector.

Page 38: ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 - minagri.prod.risa.rw · i September 2018 Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI) REPUBLIC OF RWANDA ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018

20

The LMP sets out the strategies, activities and investment budgets for better genetics, feed, and health services, as well as complementary policy support, which could help meet the national development plan targets and development objectives of Rwanda by improving animal productivity and total product output in the key livestock value chains for cow dairy, red meat-milk, poultry, and pork, as well as by contributing more substantially to national income and GDP.

The LMP proposed investment is about USD 310 million over the 5-year LMP period of 5 years, with 48% coming from the public sector and 52% from private sector investors.

The LMP stated that, if successfully implemented, the resulting further intensification of the sector could have substantial positive livelihood impacts on livestock keepers by both increasing their incomes and the food and nutritional security of their households.

Moreover, the success of the LMP is critical to the achievement of food security at the sectorial and national levels in Rwanda. Beyond very positive impacts on rural people, the anticipated transformation of the livestock sector has the potential to also impact very positively on urban consumers through more and better-quality animal source foods and lower prices of animal food products. Thus, as well as contributing far more substantially to national income or GDP, the success of the LMP is thus critical to the achievement of greater food and nutrition security at household, sectorial and national levels.

3.3. Bovine genetic improvement

3.3.1. Brief description

The bovine genetic improvement is carried out with a view to ensure the availability of quality and genetically superior breeding germplasm; management and replacement of the bull stud (Masaka bull station); bovine semen collection and processing; Liquid Nitrogen production and facilitating the availability of artificial insemination (AI) inputs; Capacity building of AI stakeholders on bovine artificial insemination, cattle reproductive management and AI inputs handling (especially, Liquid Nitrogen); and Facilitating and supervising the cattle artificial insemination across the country.

3.3.2. Management and replacement of bull stud

The National Bull station hosts a team of around 13 best bulls selected to produce semen in order to ensure fast dissemination of superior genetics and faster genetic improvement and conservation of local breeds. In the fiscal year 2017/2018, 2 young Inyambo bulls acquired to be trained on semen production to strengthen Inyambo germaplasm conservation. The young

Page 39: ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 - minagri.prod.risa.rw · i September 2018 Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI) REPUBLIC OF RWANDA ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018

21

bulls will replace 3 old bulls culled. The usual work focused on management of bulls and training of young bulls on mounting to teaser bull or dummy cow and semen production. Young bulls acquired in Ireland last year were trained and 2 have successfully started producing quality semen. The Simmental bull is still under intensive training.

3.3.3 Semen, Liquid Nitrogen and other inputs production

In FY 2017/2018 a total of 69,715 semen doses were produced, processed and stored. To ensure accelerated genetic improvement, a proportion of bovine semen used in Rwanda is imported mainly for farmers to benefit from higher genetics of bulls of higher genetic merit “Super bulls” and to increase the genetic diversity of our breeding stock. Through partnerships between RAB, Jersey Island, Send a Cow, Bothar and MSAADA a total of 68,101 semen doses (58,101 doses of Jersey and 10,000 doses of Holstein-Friesian) have been imported in 2017/2018.

To ensure availability of Liquid Nitrogen (LN2) and increased access to AI inputs for improved service delivery, RAB through Rwanda Dairy Development Project has acquired and operationalized a second Liquid Nitrogen Plant which was installed in Rubona RAB station, Huye District. This plant has the capacity to produce 20 litres of LN2 per hour and will solve the issue of shortage of LN2 and improve its access, especially for Southern and Western Provinces. Also, modern laboratory equipments have been acquired to improve semen production and quality.

3.3.4 Artificial insemination and capacity building

Bovine Artificial insemination (AI) is the best and safe mean of cattle reproduction. In the 2017/2018 fiscal year, a total of 104,373 cows were inseminated and 41,873 calves born registered. This fiscal year, there was an increase of 35% in insemination and 52% of calves registered compared to the previous year. This improvement was mainly due to significant efforts invested in availing liquid nitrogen (a new plant installed); training of more inseminators; availing different inputs to technicians and training of farmers via RDDP project and other partners such other Send a Cow, Heifer International Rwanda, Jersey Island, Bothar, MSAADA, etc.

Every year, RAB and partners organizes training for new AI technicians on cattle artificial insemination and reproductive management as well as refresher courses to improve the skills of existing inseminators. This is to address the challenges of low success rate of AI and low coverage which are known in cattle AI. In this fiscal year, 206 animal sciences technicians have been trained on bovine artificial insemination technique and qualified as Inseminators. Also, existing 168 AI technicians have been given refresher courses on PD and best practices in bovine artificial insemination.

3.4. Animal Health improvement

3.4.1 General context

The boundaries of Rwanda are very porous allowing easy movement of animals in and out of the country and this predisposes the country to introduction of transboundary animal diseases such as Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD), Contagious Bovine Pleuropneumonia (CBPP), Rift Valley Fever (RVF), and Brucellosis among others. The status of these transboundary animal diseases including zoonotic diseases is as follows;

• The country was declared free from Rinderpest in 2006 by World Organization of Animal Health (OIE) and from then has the same status;

• There has been no clinical cases of Contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP), Pest of small ruminants, African Swine Fever (ASF) and Highly Pathogenic Asian Avian Influenza (HPAI) in the country since 2010;

• During 2017/2018 fiscal year, we noted an upsurge of RVF affecting Cattle, Sheep and Goats in Kirehe, Ngoma, Kayonza and Rwamagana Districts in the Eastern Province; Kamonyi and Muhanga Districts in the Southern Province; Gakenke, Rulindo and Gicumbi Districts in the Northern Province;

• There has been no clinical cases of FMD during 2017/2018 fiscal year, however, vaccination was done to continue enhancing immunity of cattle that were exposed to the disease in previous year in the Districts of Nyagatare, Gatsibo, Kayonza and Kirehe in Eastern Province;

• The sero-prevalence of bovine brucellosis on the whole national cattle herd is 0.7%, the highest prevalence is found in the Eastern Province and more particularly in Nyagatare District with a rate of 3.5% when the prevalence in Goats, Sheep and Pigs is still at 0%;

• The sero-prevalence of RVF was 7.9 % in Cattle;

• The prevalence of Mastitis in Cattle in Rwanda is 67,4%;

• In 2017/2018 financial year, the prevalence of Theileria parasites was 1.5%;

• Trypanasoma parasites prevalence of 0.0% was recorded in cattle around Akagera River and 9% in Canine;

• Anaplasma and Babesia were not detected in any of the submitted samples;

• The prevalence of helminthes in cattle was 24.5% and 38.3% in small ruminant;

3.4.2 Control of transboundary animal diseases

• The control of transboundary animal diseases (TADs) is an activity that was taken on from the financial year 2017/18, the country made significant progress in controlling TADs. Those of interest include lumpy skin disease (LSD), African swine fever (ASF), peste des petit ruminants (PPR) and contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP). World Animal Health Organization (OIE) progressive control pathway staging of FMD status in Rwanda is stage 3 on 5-stage pathway and the country is set to apply for certification to stage 4.

• During 2017/18, 165,000 cattle around FMD high risk areas were vaccinated. These areas include districts bordering Tanzania and Uganda; and among these are; Kirehe, Kayonza, Gatsibo and Nyagatare districts. Outbreaks of LSD were reported in various districts and 655,713 cattle were vaccinated, 510,550 heads of cattle were vaccinated against black quarter in endemic area

3.4.3 Control of zoonotic diseases

• Rwanda has had different zoonotic diseases incidences of which some have become endemic and pose a big threat to the public. These include Brucellosis, Rift Valley Fever, Rabies and cysticercosis.

• During this FY 2017-2018, we note an upsurge of rift valley fever affecting cattle, sheep and goats in Kirehe, Ngoma, Kayonza and Rwamagana districts in the Eastern Province; Kamonyi and Muhanga in the southern province; Gakenke, Rulindo and Gicumbi in the Northern Province. 163 deaths of cattle and small ruminant and 308 abortions due to RVF were registered. 295,220 cattle, sheep and goat were vaccinated and 457,853 were sprayed using Permapy+ done in aim to control the spread of the disease in all the affected areas

• Since the disease is known to be transmitted by mosquitoes, livestock reared near large expanse swampy areas were considered to be at high risk. Along the Nyabarongo, Akanyaru, Akagera and Muvumba rivers in the all nile bassin.

• In this FY 2017-2018, 2,450 human dog bites were registered, vaccination of 10,705 dogs/cats against rabies and culling 2,792 stray dogs were done

• In order to control the brucellosis, 101,630 young female cattle (4-11months) were vaccinated and the sero-prevalence of bovine brucellosis on the whole national cattle herd is 0.7%, where the highest prevalence is found in the Eastern Province and more particularly in Nyagatare District with a rate of 3.5% when the prevalence in goats, sheep and pigs is still zero.

In addition, 187,3050 cattle, 248,000 small ruminants and 183,692 pigs were identified for sale in the livestock markets; 3180 movement permits books for large and small animals were produced and distributed to different districts in the country. Furthermore, out of six border and quarantine posts in the country, only four are operational.

In order to regulate the veterinary drugs, the veterinary services issues out importation permits, to allow them to be imported into the country. In relation to this the veterinary services issued out 237 importation permits for importation of different veterinary drugs including among others; antibiotics, antiparasites, anti-inflammatory drugs, minerals, vitamins; hormones, vaccines; 35 importation permits for 2,750 T of animal feeds and feed additives, 174 permits for fish farming materials and 5 permits for bee keeping equipment.

3.5. Animal feeding

3.5.1. Improved forage establishment

Forage cultivation is important to improve animal nutrition .Increase farm’s forage productivity is also essential to cope with climate change challenges. During the 2017/2018 financial year, 813.5 hectares of improved forage varieties (forage seeds multipliers) were established. Farmers changed their mind-set and were willing to establish new plots to cope with fodder scarcity during the dry season. 393 FFS groups have been formed and established forage plots as their main core activity for feeding trials and forage seeds pass on in between LFFS group members; and 7,244 livestock farms were cleared and fenced in Nyagatare and Gatsibo districts.

3.5.2 Forage conservation

In order to cope with prolonged drought during dry season, farmers were trained on forage conservation techniques and supported with plastic silage tube to be used for silage making. 933 Farmers trained on hay and silage making, crop restudies treatment and conservation. The districts reached are Gatsibo, Kayonza, Ngoma, Kirehe, Rwamagana and Nyagatare. In total, 1,525.7 tons of hay were conserved, mainly Chloris gayana, bush hay, Sudan grass and bean straw.

Figure 3: Forage conservations

3.5.3. Water for livestockDuring 2017/2018 financial year; 39 dam sheets distributed and 3 boreholes were constructed for rain water harvesting and use of ground water to cope with the lack of drinking water for animals during the dry season.

Figure 4: Dam sheets being put in a valley dam to be filled with water

27

In addition, 13 water tanks were constructed in Nyagatare (6), Gatsibo (1) and Kayonza (6) to provide water for livestock. Water tank construction was found to be a solution as when the dam fills up, they hold a lot of water that can assist livestock for a long. Another innovation to avail water for livestock was getting it from the Akagera River where at Karushuga in Rwimiyaga sector, Nyagatare district water for was obtained through a trench passing under the RDB electric fence and collecting it in a small well that would be pumped into drinking troughs and this facility helped farmers to water over 1,200 heads of cattle per day during the dry season. A similar trench measuring 58 km and crossing Rwinkwavu, Gahini Mwiri and Murundi sectors of Kayonza District was constructed from Kadiridimba to Mucucu ku cya Musenyeri and this facility provided water for more than 3,000 heads of cattle.

3.6 Gako beef Project

Gako integrated Beef is an intensive beef production project which is being implemented in partnership with private sector. It is located in Bugesera district which its main objective is to produce meat of good quality and quantity to meet the national consumption demands and also for international exports. The project consist on the farm land preparation through bush clearing and establishment of forage plot; set up irrigation water supply infrastructure on 2,377 ha, drilling of 9 boreholes to provide water for cattle; construct electric power line for both water intake and other field farm activities, slaughter infrastructure construction and 53 km of feeder road to ease access and transportation. The table below shows the implementation status of key activities under Gako beef project.

3.7. Operationalization of Milk collection Centers in the country

3.7.1 Brief description

Milk Collection Centers were constructed to help farmers to collect bulk and sell their milk in order to generate income and avail milk to other parts of the country. Currently, Milk Collection Centres are categorized into 3 categories:

• Category 1: The MCCs have more than one service provided to dairy farmers and milk collection, cooling and selling is done well. Additional services provided are such as having: a vet pharmacy, forage seeds, AI services, etc ….

• Category 2: The MCCs that have no more than providing the service of milk collection, cooling, and selling.

• Category 3: MCC qualified as “not operating” MCCs that started operating and due to different reasons like poor roads, poor management stopped to work

3.7.2 Key Achievements in the operationalization of MCCS

This fiscal year, 37 MCCs were transformed into Dairy Hub models and now out of 116 MCCs, 92 MCCs are now into Dairy Hubs model; 13 additional MCCs were connected to 3 Phase Electricity by PASP Project, and a total of 84 MCCs are connected to 3 phase electricity; 4,072 milk cans and 7 coolers including 110 alcohol guns were distributed to milk collection centers; 100 Milk collection points were constructed across the country.

59 Young graduates entrepreneurs ( MCCs Associates Managers) under Rwanda Youth in Agri-business ( RYAF ) were recruited and deployed to support operationalization of Milk Collection Centre , this has helped to increase quantity of milk collected at MCCs and milk supplied to milk processing plants as well (66,508,107 liters of milk were supplied to dairy processing plants in 2017-2018); 22 dairy business plans totalling 1,807,586,364 Rwf on milk collection, processing and transportation have been developed and financed. The table below indicates a list of dairy business plan developed and financed:

3.8 Animal products

The productions of animal products have been increasing over the years. This is attributed to different programs supporting the development of the livestock sector, mainly the livestock intensification program, Girinka program, small stock development, among others. Through these programs implemented by MINAGRI, Districts and other stakeholders, priority is given to genetic improvement, animal health, animal feeding, and livestock infrastructures development. The table below illustrates the trend of animal products production:

3.9 Commercial Insects

3.9.1. Apiculture

Apiculture is recognized as a pro-poor sector to improve households’ conditions. Modern beekeeping appeals to women, currently accounting for a small proportion of producers (23.9%) but with great potential to increase.

MINAGRI places particular emphasis on the promotion of beekeeping oriented entrepreneurship and that may play an important role in reduction of rural poverty in particular and the welfare of the Rwandan population in general.

Major Achievement for the fiscal year 2017 – 2018

• Training of beekeepers on Biology of honey bees, Honey Production, Safe Handling of Bee Hives, Development of Bee Hive Products, Bees Disease Control and one day meeting on how to boost honey production in Burera and Musanze districts.

• Training of trainers in bee health and pollination services: 60 beekeepers representing cooperatives countrywide were trained to control bee diseases and to protect bees during pesticide application. Beekeepers learnt to identify symptoms and to control varroa mites, wax moth, hive beetles, braula, tropilaelaps, American foulbrood, European foulbrood, nosema, chalk brood etc

• Initiate bee feeding and dissemination of bee feeding techniques: The bee feeding techniques were disseminated to 40 beekeepers from 9 cooperatives, 30 master

Page 49: ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 - minagri.prod.risa.rw · i September 2018 Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI) REPUBLIC OF RWANDA ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018

31

beekeepers were trained on bee feeding techniques, colony splitting and queen rearing.• The beekeepers were trained how to use dietary supplements like sugar solutions to

maximise honey production during honey flow, 150 beekeepers from 12 cooperatives were trained on how to use dietary supplements like sugar solutions to maximise honey production during honey flow.

• Training of beekeepers on pests and diseases identification and management: 85 beekeepers nationwide with 40 in west, 15 in South, 15 in east and 15 in North.

• Training of beekeepers in the use of honey quality equipment: 85 master beekeepers were trained on the use of honey quality equipment and quality control principle to ensure ‘Quality from the hive to the table’. This was with respect to issues of traceability, hygiene, product handling and equipment used.

• Developing queen-rearing technologies coordinated: Two technologies in queen breeding were developed in Ruhande apiary (by using grafting equipment and without grafting materials) and disseminated in 6 cooperatives and 2 beekeeping unions (Nyabihu and Rusizi).

3.9.2 Sericulture

Since 2005, sericulture was formally introduced in Rwanda. It has been practiced by individual farmers and cooperatives wherever the mulberry is grown in various parts of the country. Currently the area covered by mulberry plantation in Rwanda is about 2,281 ha .This fiscal year (2017/18), 397 ha of mulberry were planted against 500 ha targeted and 13.9 MT of cocoons were produced. Characterization of 3 mulberry varieties and 25 silkworm breeds coordinated and 90 farmers were trained on:

(i) mulberry cultivation and establishment of mulberry garden

(ii) Saplings preparation, pruning of mulberry trees, harvesting methods of mulberry leaves,

(iii) maintenance and fertilization of mulberry fields,

(iv) mulberry pests and diseases control,

(v) preparation of silkworm rearing and rearing of silkworm,

(vi) silkworm diseases and pests control,

(vii) harvesting and handling of cocoons

Sericulture faces many challenges such as lack of adoption of high technology in cocoon and raw silk production, inexperienced farmers involved in mulberry and cocoons production.

3.10 Aquaculture and Fisheries

3.10.1 Brief description of the program

Rwanda is endowed with enormous potential for fisheries production to become self-reliant and even with a capacity to export. Of the 26,338 sq. km, 1,390 is water surface. There are 24 Lakes including 3 shared ones namely Lake Kivu which is shared with the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Cyohoha south and Rweru with Burundi. This sector has shown tremendous progress during the last years whereby fish production increased from 7,100 metric tons in 2007 to 26,732 metric tons in 2014. However this production fell to 22,000 metric tons in 2015 due to increased illegal fishing activities in most of the lakes and the lack of fish feeds which lead to poor aquaculture production. This fiscal year (2017-2018), the sector shifted its fish production from 24,184 MT metric tons in 2016-2017 to 31,523 MT coming from capture fisheries and aquaculture in ponds, dams, pens and cages.

3.10.2. Capacity building and Production of fingerlings

Trainings intended to increase knowledge and skills in fish farming as well as better management of capture fisheries. More emphasis was given to modern farming techniques in cages, pens and ponds. Farmers got trained on ponds preparation, design and construction; fish fingerlings stocking, sampling and harvesting; fish farm management; installation of tilapia incubation systems given by FAO and hatchery operations; monitoring and follow up of cages, legal fishing in lakes. Fishing cooperatives were inspected and this is done every year in all fishing zones. It is aimed to check the fishing boats, fishing nets, fishing licenses, life jackets to limit illegal fishing and to avoid overfishing. Fingerlings production was done at Kigembe Fish Center which is located in Gisagara and Nyaruguru Districts.

CHAPTER 4: NUTRITION AND SOCIAL PROTECTION4.1. Introduction

The government of Rwanda and its development partners are implementing a range of strategies, policies and program initiatives designed to address nutrition and food security issues through improved food availability, access, utilization, and resilience.

The Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources committed to contribute to the reduction of malnutrition through integrating in action plan, nutrition and household food security as a sub-program strategy. Those initiatives include among others: (1) Girinka, which supplies a pregnant heifer to poor rural household to increase access to milk and additional income, (2) One cup of milk per child; (3) The Kitchen gardens (4) mushrooms, (5)Bio fortified beans production.

4.2. Girinka Programme

Girinka implementation has contributed to the increase of milk production, increase crop production and soil fertility through manure production. Additionally, Girinka implementation has enabled beneficiaries to access loans, improved nutrition status, access to the shelter and other equipment, strengthened social cohesion and is a source of income of program beneficiaries.

Girinka Program targets for the FY 2017/18 was 31,405 cows to be distributed to poor households. Through the stride proliferation of distributed cows and tangible support of distinctive stakeholders of Girinka program, the total amount of cows distributed during the fiscal year 2017-2018 is 30,616 against 31,405 with the achievement rate of 97.48 %. The sources of distributed cows are the following : (i)Earmarked fund:9,422 ,(ii)Partrners:4,828, (iii)Pass on :13,607 and (iv) Local initiative:2,759.

Since Girinka program has started, the data evaluation illustrates that 327,846 cows had been distributed countryside.

Along 2017-2018 fiscal year, an assessment of the impact of Girinka programs was conducted on poor households’ welfare, income, food security and nutritional status of under-five children for 1,106 households both beneficiaries and non-beneficiaries. The key finding of this study revealed that the Girinka program increased household income, improved household daily calorie intake per adult-equivalent (food security) by about 14%; to an improved household nutritional status of under-five children by about 58% and 23% respectively for underweight and stunting; and to an increased household annual income by about 129%.

34

4.3. One cup of milk per child

The One Cup of Milk per Child program aimed to address the problem of malnutrition among school going children and improve their nutrition status while the main components are purchase and distribution of milk to beneficiaries. In 2017/18, MINAGRI had a target to reach 85,965 pupils. A total number of children that benefited from one cup of milk was 95,175 and received 980,921 liters of milk. The high achievement was due to the intervention of new project recently initiated “RDDP” which contributed in milk distribution in additional 12 districts.

4.4. Kitchen gardens

The aim of the Kitchen Garden Program is to address dietary gaps, primarily micronutrient dense foods, through the promotion of a direct food source next to the kitchen. Impact is currently measured by number of gardens established. A total of 2,265,394 households were identified with well-maintained kitchen gardens against 2,100,000 household planned. In additional to this, MINAGRI in partnership with Agriculture Technical Assistance Facility (Agri-TAF) has developed the Kitchen Gardens and Nutrition Sensitive Agriculture (NSA) guidelines that promote more production and diversified diets at household level through vegetables, fruit trees and small livestock consumption.

4.5. Bio fortification

Following the introduction of iron beans and Orange Sweet Potato, the program is has strengthened the existing seed system by providing training for government seed inspectors and extension workers, farmer-based cooperatives, seed multipliers and agro dealers. These activities helped ensure that the integrity of the national seed system was developed and maintained through production of various seed classes. For the 2017/18, at total of 2,466, 833 Orange’s sweet potato cuttings were distributed for a total area of 56, 11 (Ha) and 772 MT bio fortified beans produced against 1, 000 MT of the targets.

4.6. Small Stock

Livestock plays an important role in providing assets and income to rural households living below the poverty line, for example through the Girinka programme, but also through the distribution of various small-stock and other animals. The government recognizes the position of animal resources and their contributions to reduce poverty and ensuring nutritional security. Small livestock also contributes to farm income, resilience, and enhanced nutritional status of farming families. For the 2017/18, a total of 1,320 pigs and 15,000 poultry were distributed to youth cooperatives in the 4 districts with high rate of malnutrition. This was achieved against the annual target of 1760 pigs and 20,000 poultry.

Chapter 5: Post-Harvest Handling, Management and Storage

Improving the performance of the agricultural sector is seen as critical in achieving accelerated economic growth and poverty reduction in Rwanda. Through the CIP, production continues to increase; giving higher yields, sustainability and revenue generation depend on the success of the entire value-chain. Post-harvest activities include harvesting, handling, storage, processing, packaging, transportation and marketing. The main key players in post-harvest operations are the Government of Rwanda, International development partners, farmers ’cooperatives, SMEs, private sector, NGOs and rural farmers.

Cutting down post-harvest losses and increasing storage capacity and efficiency is important to expand value chain profitability. Adequate drying, storage and processing facilities are needed to increase and stabilize farmers’ incomes, and to preserve the quality of products.

The National Strategic Grain Reserve (NSGR) aims to maximize net profits for smallholder farmers and reduce food insecurity by strengthening staple crop value chains and reducing post-harvest losses. Specifically, Strategic grain reserves in Rwanda are intended as a safeguard against food emergencies. Within the context of using a strategic grain reserve there are two main types of food emergencies: acute food emergencies resulting from when a certain proportion of the population is exposed to external event displacing or destroying their food supplies (such as an earthquake destroying household stocks, or flood washing out a bridge and preventing food to move to a market), or a significant shortfall in production causing rampant inflation in staple food prices.

These different scenarios need different management for instance in the case of a shortfall in the production there is generally a long lead-time of at least 4-6 months when the market is aware of the problem and the prices are climbing in response to the anticipated harvest shortfall. The price may be higher than a proportion of the population can afford. The SGR can then be used to release food to the markets to lower the market price, or to provide food to those who cannot afford to buy.

36

During the 5 years of PSTA 3 implementation, priority actions were focused on better post-harvest handling, management and storage such as:

- Construction of drying grounds and temporary stores in order to reduce post-harvest losses,

- Construction of modern storage facilities including warehouses and metallic silos,

- Dissemination of post-harvest tools and equipment to farmers’ cooperatives in different districts,

- Capacity building of farmers in post-harvest best practices (harvesting, handling, transport and storage).

5.1. Post-Harvest Infrastructures During 2017-2018 FY, in order to minimize the post-harvest losses, 1175 tarpaulins and 3,183 shellers have been distributed to maize farmers’ cooperatives. Public and private media were used to increase awareness of the benefits of post-harvest improvements at the farmer and private sector levels. National Strategic Grain Reserves stock position at end June 2018 were 11,682.5 MT (Maize: 7,571.4 MT; beans: 4,111.1 MT). This amounts to 77.9% of the annual target of 15,000 MT. The details of stock position are summarized in the table 18.

CHAPTER 6: AGRICULTURAL EXPORT AND TRADE

The agricultural exports are categorized into traditional exports and nontraditional exports. Traditional exports are Coffee, Tea, and Pyrethrum while non traditional exports consider horticulture (fruits, vegetables and flowers), other diversified agriculture products including also livestock and livestock products. Over the reporting period, the export of agricultural products increased from $ 356.5 million (FY 2016/17) to $515.9 million (FY 2017/18) indicating an increase of 45%. The share of traditional agricultural exports represent 31% of the total agricultural exports while non-traditional account for 69%. By commodity performance, cereals accounted for 20% of the total revenues from Agri-exports with the re-export composition of 39% of the revenues generated by cereals, tea accounted for 17% and coffee 13% and Horticulture products (vegetables, fruits and flowers) contributed 4% of the total Agri-export revenues generated.

Figure 6: Agricultural exports performance in terms of Revenues (USD)

NB: Other major agriculture products referred in the table above include Cereals, Pulses, Vegetable Cooking oils, Sugar, Roots and Tubers, Oleaginous and Forest products. It takes the largest share of exports due to the re-exportations of commodities mainly, cereals, cooking vegetable oils, and sugar. The re-export share accounts for 19%. (See Annex 2)

6.1. Coffee performance 2017-2018

Rwandan coffee industry is dominated by small holder growers. Coffee is grown by 355,771 farmers and covers more than 35,000 ha. It is found in all provinces of the country. An increase in coffee quality is correlated to the number of coffee washing stations which increased from 301 (2009) to 189 (2018).

Given the need to further increase revenues from coffee within the framework of the National Export Strategy, this year’s plan was the stimulation of Revenues growth (USD 70 million) and volumes increase (23,000 MT) in the Coffee sector. In order to achieve the annual target, a range of activities were undertaken in Coffee expansion, use of mineral fertilizer, marketing of product and exportation.

6.1.1. Coffee expansion and productivity

Through increased coffee production, the major interventions ranged from increasing area under production, application of fertilizer and use of agronomical practises. During 2018A&B seasons, 295,168 seedlings were planted on 117 ha in HUYE District while 295,270 were planted on 118 ha in GAKENKE district totalling 235 ha. The target was to plant 100 ha in each District.

6.1.2. Mineral fertilizer application

During 2017A season, a total of 4,812 tons of mineral fertilizers were distributed, of which 4,808 tons were applied. This represents an achievement of 96% of the annual target which is 5,000 tons. This year’s fertilizers application was done using groups of farmers in collaboration with CWS operating in their respective zones and local authorities in response to the number of coffee trees in each province.

6.1.3. Coffee production FY 2017-2018

Coffee production is largely driven by smallholder farmers holding small plots that are less than a hectare. The average coffee trees per farmer ranges between 150 and 300 trees. During the FY 2017-2018, the coffee production increased from 18,439 MT to 21,959. The increase is attributed to good rainfall distributions, fertilizer application impact and the stocks of the previous year that were not exported.

6.1.4. Coffee Marketing and Promotion

Figure 7: Coffee Branding and Promotion

The National Agriculture Export Development Board (NAEB) developed a branding strategy for Rwandan coffee. The approach was to link established exporters with international buyers where possible through improved market exploration and exhibition. The local marketing of coffee is conducted in awareness program such as ‘Coffee Day’ to increase local consumption as well as a robust advertisement campaign in various media channels. The World of Coffee exhibition in Amsterdam in June 21-23, 2018 showcased national brand for Rwandan specialty coffee under the name, “Rwanda Coffee – A Second Sunrise”. A delegation of 21 exhibitors from Rwanda attended the event.

6.1.5. Coffee export destinations

Over the reporting period, a total export volume of 20,353 MT was exported to 29 countries. The main countries destinations are reflected the figure below .Other coffee destination includes: Kenya, Japan, South Korea, South Africa, Australia, Malt, France, Germany, China and Norway among others.

6.2. Tea performance 2017-2018

The Rwandan tea sector has recently grown. It consists of 16 tea factories with two supply models from cooperatives and industrial blocks. Around 69% acreage is under growers’ cooperatives that are into two categories: cooperatives with consolidated tea blocks and out-growers with scattered individual farmers.

The Rwandan tea has benefited from integrated agricultural practices such as fertilizer application, gap filling as well as tea expansion in Rugabano, Munini and Kibeho under private investment. The plan was to increase tea production from 27,500 MT to 30,000 MT and the targets was achieved with 30,560.5 MT of tea produced. Tea sales have generated USD 78 Million from the exported tea.

6.2.1. Tea production and productivity

Interventions behind increased production are categorized in two parts - those which have short impact and those with long impact. Short yield interventions include fertilizer application, good agriculture practices such as weeding, respect of cycle plucking period, skilled pluckers while interventions with long impact are expansion of area under production and gap filling.

6.2.2. Tea seedlings preparation and expansion 2017-2018

A total of 11, 414,674 seedlings were produced and 159.75 ha of plantation were planted at Munini in Nyaruguru, Rugabano in Karongi and Cyato in Nyamasheke. The total cumulative surface area planted with tea at the end of June 2018 is estimated at 27,218 ha. They were produced by small out growers and under industrial block model.

6.2.5. Made tea production

Made tea produced in the fiscal year 2017/18 was 30,561 MT from the processing of 129,265 MT of Green leaf. The 30,000 MT target was achieved at 102%. This was due to the short dry season and good rainfall that went from October 2017 to May 2018. Made Tea is processed by 16 operational factories (9 in western, 5 in Southern and 2 in Northern provinces) which process green leaf both from their own plantations and tea cooperatives ones.

Figure 12: Made tea production

6.2.6. Improve tea plucking standard

Tea production starts with plucking. Plucking requires a defined bud leaf configuration called a plucking standard. The first step in making a quality tea requires adherence to the plucking standard. The objective is to get improved yield by plucking at shorter intervals and making sure of availability of pluckers at exact plucking time. 900 tea pluckers across different tea factories and cooperatives were trained. The implementation of this activity was coordinated under NAEB support. The trainings aimed to train pluckers on best plucking standards and practices in order to improve the quality of green leaf and Made tea as well as professionalism of tea pluckers.

CHAPTER 7: SANITARY AND PHYTOSANITARY MEASURES7.1. Sanitary and phytosanitary control of imported agricultural commodities

The Sanitary and phytosanitary control of imports aims at limiting or minimizing the risk of introduction in the country of potential hazards for plant, animal or human health (new plant/animal pests, diseases or food/feed-borne hazards) as a result of international trade or movement of goods, animals and plants. The control is carried out through issuance of import permits to eligible importers and performing entry and post-entry quarantine inspection. The import permits applications are received and processed online and they are granted based on results of the disease or pest risk analysis which is also, at some extents, facilitated by the electronic system.

Agrochemicals and animal feeds (or feed ingredients) fall in this category of regulated articles and their importation is also subject to import permit and border checks. A total of 2,517 import permits were issued in the year 2017-2018 (against 3016 for last year) for plants, plants products and agrochemicals (fertilizers and pesticides); while 1033 import permits were issued (against 1490 for last year) for animal feeds and animal products including meat and derived products, fish, honey, milk and milk products.

Border quarantine checks for imported agricultural commodities were performed by Plant and Veterinary Quarantine Inspectors deployed at 4 border posts (Rusumo, Kagitumba, Gatuna and Cyanika), airport and MAGERWA inland border post. Consignments requiring further inspection or testing were checked at the off-loading sites by Post-entry Quarantine inspectors.

Through this inspection, a total of 24 MT illegally imported products were refused entry and other 8.238 MT (including 7 MT of Poultry manure containing soil) were destroyed as their return back was not possible. The figures below depict the types and quantities of inspected commodities and which were allowed entry.

7.2. Sanitary and phytosanitary certification for export of agricultural commodities

The effective SPS certification helps the country’s products maintain existing export markets and penetrate to new international markets. This certification process involves continuous pest and disease surveillance in all export farms or areas as well as product inspection before export. The SPS certification (for export) is based on sanitary or phytosanitary import conditions of the importing country and the certificate is issued for a single consignment.

A total of 4238 phytosanitary and 339 veterinary/sanitary certificates were issued for export of plants and animal products and 187 sanitary certificates for re-export were also issued for animal products. Activities pertaining to pest and disease surveillance covered 52 export horticulture farms across the countries where 10 pests/diseases were reported.

7. 3. Agricultural commodity and input quality control

7.3.1 Meat inspection

In the framework to improve meat hygiene and safety, abattoirs, meat transporters and butcheries were regularly inspected for compliance with requirements. In the FY 2017-2018, the 7 modern abattoirs were inspected of which a new modern pig abattoir located in Kicukiro district was registered and 12 Meat transporters were licensed. The inspection of butcheries targeted the City of Kigali and a total of 177 butcheries were inspected in the 3 districts namely Gasabo, Kicukiro and Nyarugenge. From the inspection performed, 22% of inspected butcheries

CHAPTER 9: PLANNING AND BUDGET ANALYSIS

9.1. Planning process

Every Fiscal Year, the planning process starts with organizing Backward Looking Joint Sector Review (BL JSR), a forum that brings together all Agriculture Sector Working Group (ASWG) stakeholders to monitor the progress in the implementation of the planned activities vis a vis to the National Plans.

The main specific objective of BL JSR includes progress assessment in achieving sector objectives and related budget execution performance (see annex 4, 5 and 6) and highlighting key priorities for the following fiscal year (Table 20).

In relation to the implementation of policy actions, a table below presents a brief assessment of progress in achieving FY 2017/18 policy actions as approved by the Forward Looking Joint Sector Review (June 2018) and the Agricultural Sector Working Group (ASWG).

According to the table 23, we find that the revised budget allocated to MINAGRI and its affiliated agencies in 2017/18 (Frw 138,869,870,096) is less than the revised budget in 2016/2017 (Frw 144,065,077,300). This is due to the fact that the budget which was allocated to Feeder Roads Development Project (Frw 10,707,810,507) was transferred to MININFRA/RTDA.

The development budget from the donors (external funded projects) was executed at the lower rate (72.5%) in 2017/2018 compared to 76% in 2016/2017. This may be due to different reasons registered in the budget execution of externally funded projects. They include among others:

• Rwanda Dairy Development Project (RDDP) (52.5%): The low execution was caused by the process of procuring pregnant cows that has not well achieved and out of 3,000 planned; only 1,051 cows were procured and already distributed to farmers. The activities related to capacity building and Girinka Program package were also consequently not well implemented by Heifer international Rwanda. In addition, different activities with high amount were also not achieved due to delayed registered to receive the “no objection” from the donor (IFAD).

• Climate Resilient Post-Harvest and Agribusiness Support Project (PASP) (92.6%): Budget execution was not 100% due to the fact that the contract of Technical service providers in charge of maize & beans, Irish Potatoes have been terminated due to none performance, consequently the budget allocated to capacity building of cooperatives on post-harvest operations was not disbursed.

• Project for Rural Income through Exports (PRICE) (80.8): The low execution was caused by the establishment of a Fertilizer Revolving Fund which was delayed by legal procedures and this caused the non-utilization of funds planned for purchasing fertilizer worth 287m. Again, the construction of 5 hangars for tea green leaf collection in Nshili delayed due to the contractor who met financial difficulties and could not finish the works before the year ended. In addition, the construction of Silk reeling Factory was delayed due to technical issues and lack of building materials and could not be completed on time. Thus, the contracts with service providers on production of fruit seedlings and geranium were not executed as planned due to heavy rains last season.

Third Rural Sector Support Project (RSSP3) (69.9%): The low rate of budget execution was caused by heavy rain falls during the months of March to May 2018 which affected the rehabilitation works of rice schemes marshlands for Kabuye (304 ha) and Rwamagana (585ha) which negatively affected the budget execution.

Rural Community Support Project (RCSP) (56.7%): The low rate of execution was due to the heavy rain experienced during the period of March to May 2018 delayed the works for marshland of Rwinkwavu (462ha) and Kanyonyomba marshland (110ha) development and consequently no payment done. Bwanya marshland (200ha) was planned to be developed but the final report for feasibility study showed that it was not economically feasible. In addition, the implementation of land husbandry and post-harvest infrastructure works in different RCSP sites delayed because the Donor (KOICA) delayed to provide the clearance as the project was being restructured for one year of extension

64

For RAB Competitive Research Project registered low rate of budget execution (60.6%). This is due to the fact that the expected planned budget (Frw 1,170,826,790) to be received in 2017/18 was not disbursed by the donors (See annex 6).

NB: On the budget side, we noticed discrepancies between what is presented by MINAGRI and what we can find in the Revised Budget Finance Law. The revised total budget in Finance Law is Frw 109,041,344,142 while the Revised Budget presented by MINAGRI, where Domestic Budget was provided by MINECOFIN while External Funds was captured from SPIUs Project Documents is Frw 115,809,967,014; making a difference of Frw 6,768,622,872. This latter is the amount not accounted in the Revised Budget Finance Law. It may be accounted as the off-budgetary projects externally financed (see annex 6).

9.3 The Management Information System (MIS) and Reporting

9.3.1 Background

Figure 16: MIS login screen

The MIS has been established to support the provision of accurate and timely information on the performance of the agricultural sector with regards to the implementation of the Strategic Plan for the Transformation of the Agriculture in Rwanda (PSTA 3). The system, hosted at the National Data Centre, is web-based but allows off-line use. The figure below shows the log-in screen of the MIS.

9.3.2 Functionality of the MIS

Users from relevant organizations have been trained in the use of the MIS (MINAGRI, RAB, NAEB, District-agricultural staff). Most field data are regularly collected by Sector Agronomists and Veterinarians and recorded in the system on a monthly basis. The figure below shows the data entry screen.

65

Figure 18: Example of data entry screen for sector veterinarian

After data are entered, they appear on the dashboards developed for the different users. Various types of reports and charts can be generated and viewed. The figure below shows the report on animal improvement for all districts.

Figure 19: Example of a report on animal improvement

The MIS has been the main tool for generating information for the reporting on agricultural performance, including the Imihigo reports and implementation of 7YGP, National Leadership Retreat Resolution, P4R, amongst others.
