1 The SCAMPIS project - a quick presentation- 3 years duration 3 countries : India ( Orisas state ) Madagascar Guatemala Targets : (i) 30,000 smallholders families adopt Gravity-fed low cost Microirrigation Systems ( GMS) to improve their nutrition, food security and income; (ii) a sustainable GMS equipment supply / after sales services chain is established in teh area of intervention; (iii) the experience triggers replication / mainstreaming of the commercial approach to innovation uptake Funding : 3 millions euros ( 4.4 millions USD) Partners: COOPERNIC, IFAD, IDEIndia, AVSF, FUNCAFE

2 SCAMPIS Objective : Livelihood support ( income and food security) for smallholders through high-value horticultural production; thanks to the sustainable supply of affordable Gravity-fed Micro-irrigation Systems -GMS, Liquid Organic Fertilizers/Pesticides-LOFP, and accompanying services … 2 Self-consumption Commercial production 40 m2 100 m2 500 m2 Area of Irrigated plot Nutritional objective Income generation Production ?

3 Proveedor nacional Proveedores locales Organisaciones locales Beneficiarias Mujeres Promocion Technical assistance Equipment and Input supply Training and capacity building Market-oriented approach to low- cost GMS and LOFP diffusion National policies on horticulture, water management and drip irrigation promotion Promotional activities Time-bound, targeted subsidies National suppliers Local suppliers Local NGOs & producers associations Poor farming families SCAMPIS ressources use IFAD project’s contribution IDEI specific Know-how

4 Low-cost / high returns technologies disseminated through SCAMPIS (1) 1/ K 20: Microirrigation “bucket” kits ( 44 or 88 plants-20 sq.m.) 3/ Organic fertilization and natural liquid foliar sprays 2/ K 100 : “drum kit” for 100+ sq.m.

5 Treadle pumps for surface water The “rope and washers” pump for deep groundwater: 4/ Human-Powered Pumps and water-lifting devices Low-cost / high returns technologies disseminated through SCAMPIS (1)

6 Multiple water sourcing and conveyance modalities can be combined to supply GMSs

8 Even irrigating staple crops ( here, maize in Gajapati district) on small plots during the dry season may be considered worthwhile by SCAMPIS clients

9 Objectif: Développement « naturel » du marché « spontaneous » market development Expected market development through SCAMPIS intervention threshold market performance Inclusion of smallholders Purpose : minimize the time span Time SCAMPIS

10 Role distribution in technology promotion

11 Adoption rate Time Saturation Maturity Growth Emergence II III I IV Technology adoption rate SCAMPIS duration ? Upscaling? Mainstreaming ?

12 Key determinants at introduction stage of a technological innovation Need to quickly work through market forces (involve private sector for dealership and services ) Though the SCAMPIS financing is time-bound, withdrawal from intervention areas is not an option, therefore the post-project sustainability of the supply chain be firmly established (policy support needed) A consequence is that : whereas the initial direct subsidy for equipment purchase appears inevitable to reach the critical mass of adopters in a reasonable time, it must be phased out; a gradually regressive subsidy scheme must be well publicized and understood by clients.

13 Shifts in SCAMPIS’ role (1) Shifting to supply chain with periodic quality checks by SCAMPIS staff Highly controlled and centralized Quality control Gradual handing over to supply chain (dealers) By SCAMPIS staff directly Promotion Facilitates co-ordination and linkages between supply chain members Direct involvement in order processing, subsidization of equipment purchase Supply chain management FutureNow Value chain management for agric.produce Identification of op- portunities and partners Assistance to smallholders’ produce-based organisations for value-chain development Intervention

14 Organize technical support programs using local resource persons from village, govt. officials, NGOs etc. Assistance from IFAD-sponsored project + SCAMPIS staff Agronomic advice Train input suppliers and LOFP Small Enterprises, to facilitate appropriate delivery and stock- keeping Assistance in getting quality seeds; Validate GMS + LOFP-based fertigation; Quality input supply Facilitate supply chain and new alternative channels to stock spares Extra spares with product After sales service FutureNow Shifts in SCAMPIS’ role (2) Intervention

15  Assist in selection of crop to be grown/ diversification  Facilitate training on cost/benefit analysis, production, post-harvest and processing techniques, best practices Nil Crop selection  Facilitate the setting up of agri-services centres ?  Train farmers on how to use information for better returns  Connect farmers with partners for niche markets Nil Information and market access FutureNow Shifts in SCAMPIS’ role (3) Intervention

16 Subsistence smallholders type « A »: 85 % ? Potential GMS clients The technology of low-cost Gravity-fed Micro-irrigation Systems (GMS) is conducive to « self-targeting »: Typology of potential uptakers : farmers +/- involved in specific produce supply chains type « B »: 10 % Producers with access to market already secured type « C » : 5% of total? Farmers type LEGEND: SCAMPIS essentially targets ( 1/3 ?) of type A producers to help them access to type B …

17 Subsistence smallholders type « A »: 85 % ? Potential Low-cost GMS clients farmers +/- involved in specific produce supply chains type « B »: 10 % ? Producers with access to market already secured type « C » : 5%? Farmers type LEGEND: A vision of SCAMPIS as a change agent in its area of intervention….: type C : 10 % ? type B : 25 % ? type A : 65 % ? NOW: in 10 YEARS: Low-cost GMS users
