2. Objectives and Scope To share the scale and scope of the DLA To highlight key emerging findings of the DLA for KPK Province To highlight implications for response in the short and medium term for KPK Province

3. Objectives of DLA 1. To evaluate the extent to which rural households have recovered from the 2010 floods in terms of livelihoods and food security. 2. To give insights on the impact and effectiveness of interventions designed to support livelihood and food security recovery. 3. To understand problems and issues that remain for livelihood recovery DECISION MAKING

Final Analysis and Dissemination to the Stakeholders 1 Aug. Workshop to Present Preliminary Results Provincial Consultations 30 Aug. Rabi Response Priorities Final Report of the DLA August 2011 July 2011 June 2011 May 2011

8. Emerging Findings 1.Livelihood and food security recovery. Livelihood asset trajectory Rabi harvest 2011 vs. “normal” Kharif planted area 2011 vs. “normal” Kharif harvest expectations vs. “normal” Livestock ownership Debts Food consumption and food security

9. Livelihood assets – case study Measured changes in Livelihood Assets before and after the floods: Human Capital. Labour capacity, Education Employable skills, Local employment opportunities; Natural capital. Access to: land, common property resources (Rangelands, water reservoirs/ ponds etc), Ag inputs, Irrigation infrastructure, Livestock holding, Crops;

10. Financial capital. Wages, Access to credit, Indebtedness, Individual or communal savings, Coverage of social safety nets, Access to remittances; Physical capital. Water supply, Housing, Communications-roads, bridges, access to markets, Livestock shelters, Mechanical infrastructure; Social capital. Social status, Social organizations, Discrimination against disable, Links with family & friends, Confidence.

14. Rabi Harvest All Crops (2011 vs "normal") (HH Quest)

15. KPK - Rabi Harvest All Crops (2011 vs "normal") (HH Quest) (% of respondents)

16. Kharif Crop 2011: % of normal land area planted (HH Quest)

17. KPK - Kharif Crop 2011: % of normal land area planted (HH Quest)

18. Expected Kharif Harvest as % of normal Kharif Harvest (HH Quest)

19. Impact of floods on ALL livestock: % of HHs experiencing reductions between July 2010 and October 2010 (HH Quest)

20. KPK - Impact of floods on Large livestock: changes in No. of heads (HH Quest)

21. KPK - Impact of floods on Small livestock: changes in No. of heads (HH Quest)

22. KPK - Impact of floods on poultry: changes in No. of heads (HH Quest)

23. Ratio of debt to monthly income % July 2011 (HH Quest)

24. KPK - Ratio of debt to monthly income % July 2011 (HH Quest)

25. Reasons for new debt in last 6 months (Jan – Jun)

26. KPK - Reasons for new debt in last 6 months (Jan – Jun) (HH Quest)

27. KPK - Food Consumption Score (HH Quest)

28. Initial Conclusions and Implications for Response Livelihood and food security recovery is happening…. ….But: households are not yet back to pre-flood levels of livelihood and food security Many households remain vulnerable and highly food insecure Effect of rabi 2011 harvest on income and food access Kharif 2011 harvest likely to be below average RECOVERY INTERVENTIONS STILL REQUIRED IRRESPECTIVE OF 2011 MONSOON

29. Emerging Findings 2. Impact and effectiveness of interventions. % Households receiving interventions Usefulness of interventions Beneficiary reasons for dissatisfaction

30. % of HHs receiving external assistance between Jan 2011 and Jun 2011 (HH Quest)

31. Household opinions of assistance received: January – July 2011 (% of HHs) (HH Quest)

32. To those who answered that assistance received was of “ Little Help” or “No Help”, the HH questionnaires asked “why”.... See following three slides

33. HH opinions on General Food Distribution (% of HHs) (HH Quest)

34. HH opinions on Agricultural Inputs (% of HHs) (HH Quest)

35. Household opinions on Livestock support (% of HHs) (HH Quest)

36. Performance of interventions over 2011 is mixed… Majority of HHs felt that assistance was of some / great help, however…. Sizeable minorities said no or little help Insufficient quantities, arrived too late, not suitable for livelihood, manipulated…. CONCLUSIONS: (a) Interventions seem broadly relevant to livelihoods and food security recovery (b) ‘gaps’ in quality, quantity and coverage are apparent (c) How can these gaps be addressed in next 6 – 9 months? Initial Conclusions and Implications for Response

37. Emerging Findings 3. Remaining needs and issues for recovery. Immediate agricultural needs Structural agricultural issues and needs Current needs overall Projected needs until end of 2011

42. Now, the Focus Group Discussions (FGDs): these give a more diversified picture of the actual, outstanding problems....see next 6 slides.

43. Irrigation system damage: cited by over 80% of all groups, with high average score and modest recovery rate Land erosion: mentioned by 47% of all groups, with extremely high average score and very modest recovery rate Crop diseases: cited by 25% of all groups with a relatively high average score Drying of orchards: 16% of all groups, but sky- high average score and no recovery  high economic impact “Structural” crop issues: Focus Group Discussions - Men

44. Damage to irrigation systems mentioned by 23% of all groups with a high average score Land erosion related issues: mentioned by a cumulative of over 35% of all groups with a upper-average score Reduction of labour opportunities mentioned by 27% of all groups but with an upper-average score Females – CROPS

48. Females – OFF FARM End / substantial reduction of work opportunities mentioned by 47% of groups with average-high score; Loss of machinery and raw materials from cottage industry (including sawing machines) referred by a combined 40 + % of all groups with a marginal improvement from after the floods. Very high average scores Burden of debt: referred by “only” 11% of all groups but with a top average score

49. Most pressing immediate agricultural needs as at June /July 2011: Seeds, fertilizers, credit, agricultural services?  GROUP WORK! More “Structural” ag. needs: Irrigation repair; Land erosion; Livestock fodder; livestock disease control; employment support; small business equipment and support (women)?  GROUP WORK! Overall support needs in next 6 months: Cash grants; agricultural services; employment; food aid?  GROUP WORK! Initial Conclusions and Implications for Response...
