Synopsis (short abstract) The Ethiopia Country Evaluation has been an independent and forward looking process, providing FAO’s stakeholders with a systematic and objective assessment of the relevance, efficiency, effectiveness, impacts and sustainability of the programmes and activities undertaken by FAO in Ethiopia. The evaluation considered all of FAO’s work in Ethiopia during the period 2005- 2010, irrespective of the source of funding (regular programme or extra budgetary resources) or the location of project managem ent (HQ, Regional Office or the FAOR). The evaluation also included an assessment of the activities of the FAO representation which are not necessarily carried out through projects. The team developed a wide ranging evaluation framework; in broad terms, FAO’s performance was evaluated against the FAO corporate objectives, the draft National Medium Term Priority Framework (NMTPF), the draft FAO Disaster Risk Management Plan of Action (PoA) and by review of projects implemented in the country.

Evaluation of the "Food-loss reduction through improved postharvest handling and value-addition of key fruits and vegetables" project in Ethiopia
Project code: GCP/ETH/088/GER
2021

The “Food-loss reduction through improved postharvest handling and value addition of key fruits and vegetables” project was implemented by FAO Ethiopia over the period 2016–2019. By tackling post-harvest losses, the project addressed one of the major challenges faced by producers. Farmers have adopted project post-harvest management practices, techniques and technologies that have helped to reduce losses and increase food security by boosting income and making more produce available for household consumption. The results will be sustainable because of the economic gains the farmers are seeing and the adaptability of practices and technologies. Studies conducted as part of the project provided evidence of the size and significance of post-harvest losses, which were previously undocumented. Evidence produced contributed to increase institutional attention on post-harvest management.
