Abstract
This new report presents the results of
a systematic assessment of the World Bank’s 15-year
experience with the productive alliance approach adopted by
21 projects in 10 countries across Latin America and the
Caribbean. With funding of over United States (U.S.) 1
billion dollar since the early 2000s, increasing evidence
suggests that the productive alliance approach can lead to
increases in productivity, market integration, and income of
smallholder farmers. The findings of this report are based
on a detailed overview and comparison of different
productive alliance projects in terms of targeting
strategies, subproject selection, implementation,
monitoring, and evaluation. It provides valuable lessons on
different design features and implementation experiences for
future operations.
