Progress During the Quarter

(November 2010 January 2011) The last quarter of the project interventions in 3 Gram Panchayat of Sindhanur taluk of Raichur district in Karnataka to leverage NREGA funds for creating productive agriculture assets with the support of Sir Dorabji Tata Trust (SDTT) was inspiring for the team as they succeeded to complete most of the planned activities. The team was not very happy and hopeful in the beginning of the quarter that it would be able to complete the commitments to the Trust and thus requested SDTT to give an additional time and we are thankful to the Trust for giving an extension to complete our commitments. This document is prepared at the end of 4th quarter of the project but reports only the activities of 4th quarter (November 2010 to January 2011) only and not of the entire year. The final report at the end of extended period would cover entire project period report. Efforts have been made to report as per the budget line items from the approved program list in the subsequent sections of the report. 1.1 Shelf of works completed: As stated in the previous volumes of Quarterly Progress Reports that the project commenced in February 2010 and completed 12 months by now. The total project period is shown below for your referenceFeb Mar Apr May Jun Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan July 2010 2010 2010 2010 2010 2010 2010 2010 2010 2010 2010 2011

Effectively we have got only 2 months (October-November) and few days in January 2011 for execution of shelf of works approved by government for 2010-11 as clear from the above table. The major reasons1) February- March: The ground works were carried out to form AIG, prepare microplans to assess the needs of the communities. 2) April-June: Gram Panchayat election announced till election of GP President and Vicepresident: election code of conduct and hence suspended all works. 3) July: Government announced new system to replace Secretaries by PDO (Panchayat Development Officers) in each Gram Panchayat; due to handing-taking over the charges by newly recruited PDOs, no work execution took place. 3

Leveraging NREGA Funds to make Agriculture Profit-making & Sustainable in Raichur, the last ranked district of Karnataka 4) August-September: The old GP members, who had lot of works in February-March in additional budget as flood measures but could claim payment in April due to announcement of election, submitted their claims. But the newly elected GP body declined their payment alleging that these works were either not executed or partially executed by the old GP members. The conflict was in whole Karnataka state and took lot of time to resolve the issue by the intervention of state level bureaucrats and finally resolved in September end. 5) October- November: Execution of approved shelf of works initiated and completed few works as furnished in the subsequent sections of the report. 6) December- January: The Intermediate and District Panchayat election announced and thus execution of works suspended due to election code of conduct again. Despite all these hurdles, the team could achieve most of the agreed tasks and the details are provided in the subsequent sections of the report. 1.1.1 Budget Approved: Total approved budget of all 3 Gram Panchayat put together is Rs.3,75,48,800 while that for 4 asset-creating works is Rs.2,75,08,800 whereas our target is only Rs.2,02,50,000.

The budget approved by the government for the year 2010-11 is grouped in 5 categories for our reporting convenience; 4 sectors representing the needs of the farmers to create productive assets and all other priorities of NREGA are grouped as other works. The maximum budget is earmarked for tree plantation in Alabanur GP, approach roads in Badarli GP, Land development in Madasirwar GP and water harvesting structures in Alabanur GP. The least fund is earmarked for tree plantation in Badarli GP, approach roads in Madasirwar GP, land development in Alabanur GP and water harvesting in Madasirwar GP.

Leveraging NREGA Funds to make Agriculture Profit-making & Sustainable in Raichur, the last ranked district of Karnataka 1.1.2 GP wise work allocation: The allocation of works in all these 3 Gram Panchayat of Sindhanur taluk are furnished in the table above and discussed as under. 1.1.2.1 Alabanur: Maximum funds is earmarked for water harvesting structures (Rs.42,30,000) followed by tree plantation (Rs.25,15,000) and connecting road (Rs.20,10,000) and the least investment is for land development activities. About Rs.38,00,000 is allocated for all other priorities of NREGA. 1.1.2.2 Badarli: Similarly for Badarli GP, the maximum funds is earmarked for connecting road (Rs.66,00,000) followed by water harvesting structures (Rs.23,00,000) and Rs.11,00,000 each for land development and tree planning activities. About Rs.43,00,000 is allocated for all other priorities of NREGA. 1.1.2.3 Madasirwar: For Madasirwar GP, the maximum funds is earmarked for water harvesting structures (Rs.22,80,000) followed by connecting roads (Rs.19,50,000) and Rs.19,43,800 for tree planning while Rs.13,60,000 for land development activities. About Rs.19,40,000 is allocated for all other priorities of NREGA. 1.1.3 Completed Works: Effectively there was only 2 months (October-November) and few days in January 2011, when Janakalyan team could mobilize the communities and complete the works, though the target is much higher than what has been achieved; therefore, we have sought for an additional time of 2 months and is hopeful that would accomplish the target before expiry of project period.

The work-wise details are attached in worksheets as Annex III to this report (4 NREGA activities completed.xls).

From the above table, it is clear that about Rs.1,33,30,000/- (65.83%) of the total target of Rs.2,02,50,000/- is already accomplished despite all these hurdles during the reporting period. Though, we must agree that the Janakalyan team could not involve physically in implementing all of these works as many parallel work execution took place in each GP 7

Leveraging NREGA Funds to make Agriculture Profit-making & Sustainable in Raichur, the last ranked district of Karnataka while we have only 1 GPO per GP; however, the planning was done by Janakalyan and the AIG/WEG members participated in these works, wherever our staff failed to make it. Many works have been implemented by direct supervision of our GPO in collaboration with GP members. 1.1.3.1 Analysis of the Works taken up under NREGA in 2010-11: It is clear from the following table that out of total works executed during the year under NREGA, more than 82% works are to create productive agriculture assets (water harvesting, land development, plantation and connecting roads) proposed by Janakalyan while rest 18% is for other works. Similarly, from the works those are approved by government and would be executed in next 2 months, the major share (about 66%) is again to create productive agriculture assets while only 34% would be related to other works.

Similarly, the above table depicts that only 27% of the total GP budget is earmarked for other works while 73% of the works are approved to create productive agriculture assets. Detailed study shows that about 80% of total approved budget is earmarked for asset building activities in Madsirwar while that in Badarli is 72% and in Alabanur is 70%. 1.1.3.2 Analysis of the works for each GP: Similarly, if we analyze the works for each GP, we find that maximum works have been implemented in Badarli GP (53%) followed by Madsirwar (35%) and least is in Alabanur (15%); the total works completed so far in these 3 GPs for creating the productive agriculture assets is 36% while for other works is only 8%.

The maximum works undertaken for land development activities is in Madsirwar GP (10% of their completed works), for water harvesting activities is in Badarli GP (14% of their completed works) and for connecting road is in Madsirwar GP (12% of their completed works). However, out of the completed works of all 3 GPs, the highest investment has gone for connecting roads (21%) followed by water harvesting structures (10%) and least 9

Leveraging NREGA Funds to make Agriculture Profit-making & Sustainable in Raichur, the last ranked district of Karnataka is for land development (5%). Tree plantation has remained zero because the work execution started after the monsoon and thus still none of the works have yet been taken up under this category; the GP as well as the members are of the opinion that they will not be taking up these activity during the current financial year.

As discussed in the earlier paragraphs, Janakalyan has identified 4 areas of productive agriculture asset creation by leveraging funds from NREGA. The following figure depicts that, tree plantation has not been taken up at all (0%) as it is a seasonal intervention but the period when this activity shall have been taken up (July-Sep) was spent in the conflict between the old and new GP members. It is also clear from the figure that maximum investment of this period has gone into approach road from the village to the farms in all the 3 GPs. Water harvesting structures have also been created but relatively less than other works while investment for land development is least among all 4 components. 1.1.4 Works to be Executed in next 2 months: If we analyze the works that are already approved and would be implemented in next 2 months, we find maximum investment would 11

Leveraging NREGA Funds to make Agriculture Profit-making & Sustainable in Raichur, the last ranked district of Karnataka be for water harvesting structures followed by tree plantation and then connecting roads while land development would find least investment. However, the point to be noted here that, would it be possible to take up plantation activities in the next 2 months (summer)?

1.1.5 Gram Panchayat wise work execution: The GP wise execution could be analyzed using the following pie charts. It is clear from all the 3 GPs that maximum investment has gone into connecting roads followed by water harvesting structures.

1.1.6 Conclusion: To conclude the above discussion one can say that, total commitment of Janakalyan during the project period was about Rs.2,02,50,000/- while we have already accomplished Rs.1,33,30,000/- (65.83%) despite several hurdles during the reporting period. In order to accomplish our target, we need to implement asset creating activities worth Rs.69,20,000/- while government has already approved productive agricultural assets worth Rs.1,41,78,800/-, need to be executed in next 2 months, which the team is pretty sure to complete before expiry of the project period. Though, the team is not very happy with the achievements during the reporting period, but has learnt lots of lessons from experiences / hurdles, which shall be our assets for the future period of intervention. Moreover, all the elections starting from lower tier of PRI to District PRI, MLA/MP are completed during the year and therefore we will not face any such difficulties in the next 13

Leveraging NREGA Funds to make Agriculture Profit-making & Sustainable in Raichur, the last ranked district of Karnataka 3 years. Therefore, keeping the learning in mind, we are sure to do more good works to create productive agricultural assets for the farmers of the region and come up with a replicable model to leverage NREGA funds for the benefits of the farming communities.

1.1.7 Problems encountered in executing the planned works: Execution of works approved under NREGA by Janakalyan team is not an easy task in the present environment and systems adopted by the government in implementation of the activities. The elected representatives as well as government machineries have their own stakes in execution of these shelves of works and therefore dont entertain interference by any external persons/institutions like ours. Some of the problems we have faced while executing these sets of shelves of works under NREGA are 1.1.7.1 The communities themselves are not interested to get the works done in their field (especially the individual benefits like water harvesting structure, land development works or tree plantation) but simply want the amount paid to them (whatever amount they get after paying the percentage of share to all persons associated in finalizing the bills and getting it released). 1.1.7.2 The newly elected PRI members, who have invested to get elected this year, have so far not been able to get any works implemented due to various reasons stated in our previous volumes of the reports; also part of the approved budget has been shared with the old PRI members and therefore, initially showed reluctance in implementing the works, especially with the cooperation of Janakalyan since our team insists for true implementation. However, finally agreed to cooperate for the works which directly benefits the farmers to create productive assets only.

14

JANAKALYAN

Sir Dorabji Tata Trust Mumbai

1.1.7.3 The concerned officers at various levels though express their full support whenever our team meets them, but creates all sorts of difficulties while making payment for the executed works to discourage the farmers / wage-earners. This was the major problem as if the payment for one activity is delayed then our team finds extreme difficulty in mobilizing the wage-earners / farmers to participate in subsequent works.

1.1.8 Strategies adopted to execute NREGA works: The notable strategies adopted in order to get these works executed to create productive agriculture assets are Many rounds of individual interactions with the beneficiaries for whom the works have been approved followed by focused group discussion to make them understand the importance of these productive agriculture assets with the following reasoningWith these productive assets, they would derive the benefits for years and also for their next generations, in terms of increased productivity. The benefits would be multiplied year after year. If they do not create these assets this time but simply get percentage of money, they would never be able to create these assets in future, as government would not allow them to get the same benefits in future.

15

Leveraging NREGA Funds to make Agriculture Profit-making & Sustainable in Raichur, the last ranked district of Karnataka PRI members are convinced to cooperate with the concept that If you support the farmers to create these productive assets, they would remember you as long as the structure remains with them while for the common infrastructure like village road, etc. nobody recognizes you. The approved budget for the productive agriculture assets is part of the total budget where we are seeking your cooperation and not for all other activities. In the whole nation, nobody has done work on this model of productive agriculture assets creation with NREGA funds and thus whole nation would recognize this model and also all of you once we prove this as a replicable model. The officers of various levels responsible for execution of the NREGA works are convinced with the motivating factors likeOut of 164 GPs of the district (34 in Sindhanur taluk), we are requesting you all to support us to create these 3 GPs as model GP so that we can give a model to the whole nation; definitely, as executing agency, the officers like you will be recognized by whole nation. 1.2 Strengthening AIG/WEG and preparing them to execute the planned activities: The emphasis has been in implementation of the approved activities during this quarter and the real empowerment of these AIG/WEGs has happened during this quarter, the team believes.

1.3 Orientation to PRI members: This quarter was dedicated only for execution of the works and thus none of the activities have been taken up any training or capacity building for the PRI members. We did plan for an exposure trip for these elected representatives but finally realized that none of the GP in the country has taken up activities under this model (as far as our knowledge goes) and thus the exposure to another context might mislead the PRI members. Therefore, finally dropped the idea of taking them for an exposure trip; moreover, they were also busy in getting the works executed during this period, as whole year they could not do this earlier.

1.4 Orientation to government staffs at various levels: Many activities have been completed in our previous period and thus none of the activities have been conducted during this quarter. Further, the officials were also engaged in preparatory activities of the election and later in election activities.

17

Leveraging NREGA Funds to make Agriculture Profit-making & Sustainable in Raichur, the last ranked district of Karnataka 1.5 Demonstration of Agriculture Technologies: As clear from our previous quarterly progress reports (Volume I, II & III), all these asset creating works have been implemented only during October-November due to election code of conduct and conflict between old and new GP members; again the election code of conduct was in force from 8.12.2010 for intermediate and district Panchayat elections till 10.1.2011. As per our original plan, the demonstration of agriculture components should have been taken up with the farmers for whom the agricultural assets such as irrigation tank, drainage, land leveling is undertaken by the project. Since, our efforts were concentrated on such asset creating works, we lost few months of kharif season and then realized that the asset creation might go beyond the kharif crop. Therefore, the team identified interested farmers among our AIGs who have assured sources of irrigation at least for part of their farm and initiated the demonstration of agricultural technologies such as SRI, IFS and high yielding crops. Therefore, though we will not be able to measure the exact outputs and outcomes of the project for agriculture components, the expenditure, yield and income data are documented from time to time which are furnished here.

Though, these demonstrations do not exhibit the benefits of the assets created by leveraging funds from NREGA, but since these are complete in itself, the farmers have realized the importance of such technologies. It is worth mentioning here that without assured irrigation, we can neither demonstrate the benefits of SRI nor the vegetable cultivation; but even then the farmers have got good yield and realized that SRI, vegetable cultivation and IFS are very relevant systems of cultivation in the present context for this region. There was lot of hesitation towards adoption of SRI and thus there was very poor response too in the beginning; however, some of the participating farmers have now realized its importance and are ready to adopt it during next cropping year too. They found nothing important in IFS as many of the farmers has been doing it for year; however, the IFS package that Janakalyan propagates is tank-based and thus the farmers did not realize its importance during the year. It would be demonstrated again with the farmers having tanks in the next cropping year. Vegetable cultivation was a new addition to this area and farmers have got the taste during the year and we are sure they would definitely adopt it in the years to come as part of their regular farming activities.

Though we have documented all details about the expenditures, yield and return from these demonstration plots, but we dont have any benchmark to compare the results as this is the first year we have introduced the program with these farmers. Therefore, we do not have the records of their previous year and hence cannot compare the data with that of previous year. However, we can definitely make analysis of the data against the expenditures that with the return. Further, some of the farmers have also shared that the yield is more than that of previous year, but there are few others who have also mentioned that the return has reduced from that of previous year. The details of these experiments are tabulated below for your ready reference.

Learning from Field

(November 2010 January 2011) The learning for previous periods have been reported from time to time in the earlier versions of the reports submitted in last 3 quarters and the learning of the 4th quarter is documented here. While in our previous volumes we have also put efforts to document the problems / difficulties / bottlenecks experienced by the team while implementing the planned activities but this volume covers only the important learning which shall form the basis for future interventions to take the action forward. The major learning from our interventions in this 12 months have been Complementary approach is the best approach as against the right-based approach for a program like NREGA to ensure real benefits to the farmers. Complementary approach, as practiced in this project, is slow but steady and is a sustainable intervention in long run while the right-based approach might bring immediate results but wipe out at the end of the intervention. Institution building at the grass root level for the wage-earners as well as farmers is essential component of the project to create productive agriculture assets which acts as pressure groups for the PRI members as well as government functionaries. Microplanning is the only tool to mobilize communities by making them realized their needs and the possibilities of getting these needs met through the NREGA. Information is power and thus the communities made aware about the facts and figures related to NREGA on day to day basis, it would make them active in deriving the benefits from the national flagship program like NREGA; a kiosk at Gram Panchayat may help a lot to achieve this goal. Though it is not that easy to motivate the elected representatives and government functionaries towards selfless works, but the team is now ready with several strategies to ensure that they create productive agricultural assets in the subsequent years. There are many farmers for whom the productive agriculture assets have been sanctioned under NREGA but are not interested to execute these works instead wants to get some percentage of the earmarked budget without creating the structures; this is because they do not have proper knowledge about these structures and also the importance of such structures and the impacts that these structures would bring in long term. Our efforts have changed mindsets of many farmers to execute the works in their farmers during the year. The labors are also hesitating to participate in execution of the works as they are not able to meet the output criteria and thus minimum wage per day; instead if they go for agriculture operations, they can earn more money than NREGA with lesser efforts and energies. Therefore, many of the works have been implemented using machines in the places where labors were not available.

Quarterly Action Plan

(February 2011 March 2011)
As per the original plan and grant approval, the project ended by January 2011; since, Janakalyan team could not achieve the target of Rs.202,50,000/- worth of productive assets creating activities leveraging NREGA fund, we sought an extension of the project period for 2 months (February March 2011) and grateful to the Trust for approving our extension. Therefore, this is an additional plan prepared at the end of the 4th quarter only to accomplish the commitments of completing the shelf of works. The major activities planned for these 2 months are Facilitate implementation of NREGA works from the approved action plan 2010-11 soon to avoid lapse of funds. Provide handholding support to labor groups (WEG) and AIG members to ensure effective implementation of all the approved works within the scheduled time. Strengthening of AIGs: demonstration of vegetable cultivation in summer and documentation of outputs to demonstrate the technologies. Organize experience sharing workshop and FIELD DAY inviting WEG members, all AIG members, GP officials and PRI members to share outputs and learnings of implementation of NREGA works as well as the outputs of all demonstrations. Documentation of the process followed and progress achieved during the entire project period by consolidating all learning for wider circulation so that it can be practiced by all other stakeholders. Ensure the entire 1000 WEG members submit their applications to GP for job-cards and facilitate them to obtain their job cards.

3.1 Plan of action to complete the balance work out of Rs.2,02,50,000/- worth asset building activities
in 4 issues of Janakalyan under NREGA: The following approved works are still to be completed and Janakalyan team plans to completed these in collaboration with the PRI members, farmers, government functionaries and wage earners. Out of our commitment, we have already completed the works worth Rs.133,30,000/- and need to complete the works worth Rs.69,20,000/- while the approved budget is about Rs.127,78,800/-. The team is very confident to achieve this target and fulfill the commitment in another month time.

3.2 Plan of action for years ahead to take the action forward: Based on the learning from pilot phase, Janakalyan proposes that interventions which it has initiated in February 2010 shall be taken forward with the following activities for next 3 years commencing from April 2011 with the support of SDTT. This being a unique approach of Janakalyan, nowhere in the country it has been implemented. Upon successful of the intervention, it would become a National Model and could be adopted in all districts across the country. If, using this complementary model, we can reduce the corruption even by 20-30% form the present level, it would be huge contribution to the country if we consider the amount of funds the government is investing in this particular program. The following activities have been planned for next 3 years keeping the learning in mind.
