Changes
Indicator # and Title, September 2013 Changes in October 2014 version
General
1. Added explanation of the three ZOI areas under which population-based indicator data are entered in FTFMS (DA/ESF, FFP/CDF, JPC/Resilience).
2. Added suggestion that, if possible, OUs should consider adjusting aggregated number to account for double-counting before entering data in the PPR.
3. Updated explanation of how number of small-holder farmers assisted should be reporting in FTFMS.
4. For annually reported nutrition indicators, changed reporting requirement. Values reported should reflect country-wide results in Feed the Future focus countries rather than only results in the Zone of Influence.
3.1.9(4) Prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding of children under six months of age
3.1.9(6) Prevalence of anemia among women of reproductive age
3.1.9(11) Prevalence of stunted children under five years of age
3.1.9(12) Prevalence of wasted children under five years of age
3.1.9(13) Prevalence of underweight women
Added instruction to report values under appropriate ZOI area and to use M&E Guidance Series Volume 11a for the first interim population-based survey. Used term “interim” rather than “midterm” and “final” surveys.
3.1.9(14) Prevalence of anemia among children 6-59 months
3.1.9(16) Prevalence of underweight children under five years of age
3.1.9.1(1) Prevalence of children 6-23 months receiving a minimum acceptable diet
3.1.9.1(2) Women’s Dietary Diversity: Mean number of food groups consumed by women of reproductive age 3.1.9.1(3) Prevalence of households with moderate or severe hunger
3.1.9.1(4) Prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding of children under six months of age
4(17) Prevalence of Poverty: Percent of people living on less than $1.25/day
4.5(19) Women’s Empowerment in Agriculture Index 4.5(9) Per capita expenditures (as a proxy for income) of USG targeted beneficiaries
3.1.9(7) Number of health facilities with established
capacity to manage acute undernutrition Changed reporting requirement. Values reported should reflect country-wide results in Feed the Future focus countries rather than only results in the Zone of Influence. 3.1.9(15) Number of children under five reached by
USG-supported nutrition programs
Changed reporting requirement. Values reported should reflect country-wide results in Feed the Future focus countries rather than only results in the Zone of Influence. Emphasized that implementing mechanisms should count children reached by the mechanism only once, regardless of the number of interventions the child received from the implementing mechanism.
3.1.9(1) Number of people trained in child health and
nutrition through USG-supported programs Changed reporting requirement. Values reported should reflect country-wide results in Feed the Future focus countries rather than only results in the Zone of Influence. 3.1.9.2(3) Number of children under five who received
Vitamin A from USG-supported programs Changed reporting requirement. Values reported should reflect country-wide results in Feed the Future focus countries rather than only results in the Zone of Influence. 4(17) Prevalence of Poverty: Percent of people living on
less than $1.25/day
Clarified that Missions should use the country-specific LSMS Integrated Survey in Agriculture Consumption Expenditure module, if available, and should use Module E of the Feed The Future standard instrument in the M&E Guidance Series Volume 11a otherwise. Added a table with PPP 2005, consumer price index for 2010-2013, and the local currency equivalent of $1.25 in 2010-2013 for Feed the Future focus countries.
4.5(19) Women’s Empowerment in Agriculture Index
Score Added an explanation that Missions have the option of not collecting the full WEAI during the first interim after the baseline. 4.5(4) Gross margin per unit of land, kilogram, or animal
of selected product
Added instructions on how to report the gross margin and related indicators (number of farmers applying improved technologies, number of hectares under improved technologies, and incremental sales) when the production cycle starts in one fiscal year and ends in another. Add instruction to report unit of measure for total production and volume of sales data points.
4.5.1(24) Numbers of
Policies/Regulations/Administrative Procedures in each of the following stages of development as a result of USG assistance in each case: Stage 1: Analyzed; Stage 2: Drafted and presented for public/stakeholder consultation; Stage 3: Presented for legislation/decree; Stage 4: Passed/approved; Stage 5: Passed for which
Significant revision with changes in processes/steps in policy change process, policy areas and “Double-counting”. PLEASE READ REVISED PIRS.
implementation has begun
4.5.2(2) Number of hectares under improved technologies or management practices as a result of
USG assistance Duration (New/Continuing) disaggregate dropped. “Cultural practices” technology type added. 4.5.2(5) Number of farmers and others who have applied
new technologies or management practices as a result of USG assistance
Dropped Duration (New/Continuing) disaggregate. Added 1) Value Chain Actor Type and 2) Technology Type disaggregates. PLEASE READ REVISED PIRS.
4.5.2(6) Number of individuals who have received USG supported long-term agricultural sector productivity or
food security training Added Duration (New/Continuing) disaggregate 4.5.2(23) Value of incremental sales (collected at farm-
level) attributed to Feed the Future implementation Added an explanation of how FTFMS using the information on number of direct beneficiaries per value chain to calculated adjusted incremental sales values. 4.5.2(24) Number of people implementing risk-reducing
practices/actions to improve resilience to climate change Changed “stakeholders” to “people” in indicator title. Added new disaggregate category “other risk reducing practices/actions”. 4.5.2(35) Percent change in value of intra-regional trade
in targeted agricultural commodities Added formal-Informal trade disaggregate. 4.5.2(38) Value of new private sector investment in the
agriculture sector or food chain leveraged by Feed
the Future implementation Emphasized that the indicator only includes capital investments and does not include operating capital. 4.5.2(39) Number of technologies or management
practices in one of the following phases of development: Phase I: under research as a result of USG assistance, Phase II: under field testing as a result of USG assistance
Phase III: made available for transfer as a result of USG assistance
Emphasized that this indicator is for research activities that are developing new technologies, not "implementation" activities that are disseminating existing technologies. Provided guidance on counting technologies for USAID crop and animal breeding and selection research projects.
