FtF Mali Yarnude

The overall objective of FtF Mali Yarnudè is to strengthen food security and improve the nutrition of rural populations, as well as to contribute to stability in the Douentza region.

More specifically, the Activity aims at the increased use of the potential of small-scale irrigation for sustainable


and economically profitableagriculture in the Inner Delta.

It will contribute to achieving the objectives of the Programme National d’Irrigation de Proximité (PNIP) that the US Government is supporting.

This Activity will:● increase agricultural production through access to water for productive use and livestock watering;● improve the population food security through the increase of nutritious food availability;● mitigate conflicts amongst farmer and livestock herders by promoting multiple sources of water;● strengthen the community governance and the capabilities of local institutions.The FtF Mali Yarnudè is aligned with the USAID Water and Development Strategy 2013-2018 Strategic Objective 2:
Manage water for agriculture sustainably and more productively to enhance food security.

The Activity also aligned with the goals and objectives of the USAID/Mali Feed the Future (FTF) Project AppraisalDocument (PAD) of broadened and inclusive Agricultural growth.In achieving these objectives, this Activity aims to improve the lives of 3,870 smallholder farmers and to increase their access to the Irrigation system and 20,000 livestocks will get access to watering troughs in the Douentza region.USAID/Mali seeks applications from organizations that articulate an innovative approach to develop and implement interventions in the Douentza that will improve agricultural production and alleviate water shortages for animal consumption.

The Activity will also work to improve the local governance of affected communities by building their capabilities to prevent conflict and work within structures that support peaceful coexistence and social cohesion.Subject to the availability of funding, USAID intends to provide approximately $5 million in total funding for this three-year Activity.

Funding, benchmarks, and targets will be reviewed on an ongoing basis.
