Notice Title

DFID 8021 Sector Analysis Studies for the Commercial Agriculture - Call Down Contract

Notice Description

The primary objective of the study is to enable DFID to identify the value chains, sub-national regions and stakeholders to form the basis for CASA's country level interventions and to enable DFID to use this information to develop the terms of reference for the implementation of this component of the CASA programme. The studies are expected to: Identify two value chains in each country which offer the best potential to increase economic opportunities for smallholder farmers, using the selection criteria described in paragraph 3 below; Identify potential interventions within the recommended value chains which the programme could make to develop commercial agriculture in line with the CASA objectives and approach. The studies will identify opportunities to: Establish, support or expand smallholder aggregation and access to markets, particularly for poorer farmers, women and those not currently engaged in commercial agriculture. Support SME agribusinesses with significant smallholder supply chains to prepare for and attract early stage investment; Support organisations which bring together stakeholders to advocate for regulatory reform and identify possible reforms which would boost growth in the value chain and increase the ability of smallholders to participate in it.
