KAPSLMP?s development objective is to facilitate agricultural producers in the targeted operational areas to adopt environmentally-sound land management practices without reducing their incomes. Performance monitoring will be based on outcome indicators at PDO level: (a) Percent increase in cultivated area in which promoted slm technologies and practices have been adopted in the project operational areas, (b) Percent increase in income of households from slm related intervention in the project operational areas, (c) A national institutional framework for slm planning, implementation and coordination established, and (d) Percent increase in vegetative cover in cultivated fields in the project operational areas.

The Implementation Progress (IP) rating has been upgraded from MS to S based on the progress made in implementing project activities and especially on implementation of community level micro-projects where promising outcomes have started to emerge.

Since the last mission, the implementation of the community micro-projects has been rolled out in the three operational areas (Kikuyu-Kinale, Taita and Cherangani catchments). In total 112 community SLM proposals have been reviewed and funded in the three operational areas. In addition, a total of 45 alternative livelihoods proposals were developed and funded for three value chains, namely; fruits, nut & vegetables, dairy& meats and natural resources. The first tranche of funds totaling Ksh 65,510,000 (US$752,000) has been disbursed to communities to support the micro-projects. Several private Service Providers (SPs) have been recruited and contracted to support the communities to implement the micro-projects. The project also has continued to support a number of capacity building activities for SPs, beneficiaries and other stakeholders. Although the task teams to spearhead the preparation of the Kenya SLM Investment Framework (KSIF) and implementation of the Payment for Environmental Services (PES)-which are key activities under component three- are in place, the implementation progress in this component has been slow, a factor that has adversely affected funds absorption. The Implementation Progress (IP) rating has been upgraded from MS to S based on the progress made in implementing project activities and especially on implementation of community level micro-projects where promising outcomes have started to emerge. The Client has also implemented all of the actions agreed upon during the last review mission including making the necessary staff changes at the project secretariat. By the time of the mission, a total of US$ 4.45 million (45% of the Grant) has been disbursed to the project leaving a balance of US$5.6 million. Another US$.75 million was Public Disclosure Copy disbursed in April 2014 bringing the total disbursement to US$5.2million (52% of the Grant). By the time of the mission an amount US$0.95 million was yet to be received in the project account. However, action has been taken and the amount disbursed to the project account by end of March 2014. The project's results framework (RF) is too loaded with over 21 intermediate outcome indicators. It has therefore been agreed that the project team will review and revise the RF to trim down the number of indicators to ensure that the remaining ones have a baseline and can be easily monitored and reported. The revised RF should be approved by the project steering committee and subsequently submitted to the Bank not later than July 30, 2014 for review. However, the four PDO indicators will be maintained as per original design. Depending on the nature of the proposed RF amendments, this may call for level II restructuring. The project is assessed as having adequate accounting capacity and the FM arrangements are sufficient. The project has complied with the financial reporting requirements with quarterly IFRs and annual audit reports being submitted to the Bank within the stipulated timelines. The project is also assessed to have adequate procurement capacity with an updated procurement plan.
