Madagascar - The Lower Mangoky Irrigation Area Extension Project – Phase II (PEPBM II)
Detail:
The Lower Mangoky Irrigation Area Extension Project – Phase II (PEPBM II) supports the Government of Madagascar in developing climate-resilient irrigation infrastructure and strengthening agricultural value chains in the Atsimo-Andrefana region. The project has a total cost of UA 36.57 million, financed through an African Development Fund loan of UA 23.50 million and a Transition Support Facility loan of UA 11.33 million, complemented by a government in-kind contribution of UA 1.74 million, with no external co-financiers. Building on the achievements of Phase I, the project focuses on expanding and rehabilitating irrigation schemes, improving water management governance, and promoting agribusiness development. It aligns with Madagascar’s Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), contributes to climate adaptation and low-carbon agriculture, and supports the African Development Bank’s High 5 priority “Feed Africa” by strengthening food security, resilience and rural development in a region highly vulnerable to climate shocks.
