Increasing rural incomes: an evaluation of rural sector projects in Samoa (pdf 664K)

This AusAID study analyses three rural sector projects supported by AusAID in Samoa over the period 1991 to 1999, as follows:
- Farming Systems Project (FSP)
- Training Personnel in Livestock Sector Project (TPLSP)
- Fisheries Extension and Training Project - Phase 1 (FETP).

The projects were implemented by Samoa's Ministry of Agriculture, Forests and Fisheries (MAFF). FSP was mainly implemented by Research, Extension and Crops Divisions, TPLSP through Livestock Division and FETP through Fisheries Division.

This evaluation presents the findings of a mission to Samoa in March/April 2000. It assesses the performance of the projects in achieving their income generation objectives and the sustainability of development outcomes. In all three projects, income generation was a 'high order objective', or in logframe terminology, was represented in the project goal.
