However, the project started registering this year a good progress on the ground by the completion of procurement of 11 works contracts on 11 irrigation schemes and, committing 85% of the project funds. Some earlier concluded works contracts have substantially progressed. The next two years of project implementation, by project closure in the end of 2021, is of critical importance for completion of all project activities. The mission Aide Memoir presents the specific actions to be taken that will help to place this important project in a sustainable pathway leading towards satisfactory project outcomes. Among these agreed actions the following should be dealt with as soon as possible: (i) Project budget allocation in the Republican Budget Program for the calendar year 2020; (ii) Completion of negotiation and signing of the last works contract on Kyzylkum irrigation scheme; (iii) Launching of training (demonstration) programs developed under Component 2 and 3 of the Project.
