Components and outcomes. The Project is structured along two components and related sub-components:
5.1 Component 1: Enhancement of economic opportunities for rural youth and women. This component aims at facilitating the establishment of profitable agribusiness by beneficiaries. It is supported by four mutually reinforcing subcomponents.
Subcomponent 1.1: Support to rural agribusiness incubation will generate about 25,500 agri-enterprises through the incubation system.
Subcomponent 1.2: Support to rural agribusiness production and marketing infrastructure will support the demand-driven development of about 30,000 ha of land, a variety of production and processing facilities, and the construction of farm roads and bridges to facilitate market access.
Subcomponent 1.3: Promotion of financial services for rural agribusiness will support enterprise development through: (i) savings promotion, (ii) payment systems and (iii) cashless credit in off-taker pre-financing arrangements. Other systems currently under development including Bank of Agriculture's credit facility and the Nigeria Insurance Risk-based Agricultural Lending Micro Small and Medium Enterprise Development Fund will be reviewed, based on their effectiveness for possible inclusion in LIFE-ND during midterm review.
Subcomponent 1.4: Institutional strengthening and knowledge management will support capacity building of rural institutions, including the Commodity Apex Development Associations (CADA) of the CBNRMP and technical assistance to the
Components and outcomes. Programme activities shall be organised in two mutually supportive components aimed at developing solutions that will help upgrade the milk and meat value chains and selected investments in poultry. Given the high vulnerability to climate change, LPMIP will mainstream a climate smart approach throughout its activities. Programme activities will be coordinated under the Programme Management component.
4.1 Component 1: Market-led sustainable livestock production
Outcome 1: Livestock productivity improvements sustainably increased with climate resilience The Programme will develop the ‘soft’ capacity of farmer groups to contribute to the preparation of community level village development and climate vulnerability plans to guide and prioritise investments in pastures and public infrastructure to improve farmer access to feed for livestock. In one rayon, possibly Beylagan, a pilot activity will be undertaken to show how development of a rayon level land management plan can guide targeting and design of village level natural resource management and productive investment activities. The Programme will fund community investments in advanced irrigation, drainage and land rehabilitation for forage production and pasture rehabilitation, natural seed banks and adoption of climate resilient practices and technologies. The poorest women-headed households will have access to poultry start-up packages and start up packages for alfalfa forage production to provide an initial boost towards sustainable poultry or livestock production. To complement the investments, Programme funds will be used to support demonstration, early adoption and innovation activities such as improved in-field water management, improved animal housing and improved fodder conservation techniques. Other matching grant activities could include upgrading animal housing, improving stock watering facilities, improving alfalfa hay, silage or feed storage areas, buying simple feed processing activities or installing equipment to improve milk hygiene and quality. The programme would further support developing investment and business proposals to facilitate borrowing from the commercial sector.
4.2 Component 2: Increased return from livestock products
