The proposed Project Development Objective (PDO) of the Bangladesh Integrated Agricultural Productivity Project is to enhance the productivity of agriculture in pilot areas. The project aims to increase this in agro-ecologically constrained areas by strengthening key aspects impacting agricultural production. The project comprises four components. Component 1, Technology Generation and Adaptation, will support the PDO by adapting and making available the technologies and management practices that will increase yields. It will address one of the major constraints to agricultural growth in the project area, insufficient relevant technologies and practices. Component 2, Technology Adoption, will support the PDO by enabling farmers to sustainably adopt improved agricultural production technologies and management practices, thus increasing productivity as well as intensifying and diversifying agricultural production. Component 3, Water Management, will support the PDO by improving the availability of irrigation water and efficiency of its use. It will thus enable farmers to increase cropping intensity, improve cropping patterns and reduce irrigation related risk/variability in crop production that can inhibit investments in other modern technologies/inputs. Component 4, Project Management, will support the realization of the PDO by ensuring that (i) interventions undertaken under the project are appropriately planned, coordinated and aligned with project design and development objectives; (ii) implementation arrangements and activities are in line with relevant fiduciary and safeguards policies, procedures and standards; and (iii) there is due monitoring, oversight and reporting of project implementation and the resulting outputs and outcomes.
