  1. DPRK - Nematodes Sustainable reduction of crop yield losses through on-farm availability of biological plant protection agents against soil-borne insect pests for strengthened food security in DPRK Project Executive: Loke Wai Hong Senior Users: Loke Wai Hong, Janny Vos Senior Suppliers: Ulli Kuhlmann, Qiaoqiao Zhang Project Manager: Ulli Kuklmann Date: 06/04/2010 PID Version: October 2009

  2. Executive Summary Food crops in DRPK are under increasing threat from soil-borne insect pests that can cause yield losses of 25-30% depending on the crop. The problem is exacerbated by the limited options for pest control available to DPRK farmers. The project will develop and field test new production methods for nematodes to use as a biological control agent for the soil-borne insect pests. Capacity building and training of scientists and farmers will be undertaken and the increase in knowledge and skills should result in stable yields, increased economic stability and improved food security. Part A – Background (1)Executive Summary & Objectives Project Objectives Production of cereal crops, in particular, maize is sustainably increased in the pilot province(s) in DPRK, through the development of a nematode production system and subsequent application of increased nematode numbers to fields.

  3. Part A – Background (2)Key Stakeholders and Beneficiaries • Stakeholders and Beneficiaries:- • Donor(s): European Commission, EuropeAid • End-user(s): Farmers in cooperative farms, researchers at agricultural universities and colleges, county plant protection stations • Partner(s): Academy of Agricultural Sciences (Plant Protection Institute); Ministry of Agriculture (Central Plant Protection Station); Andermatt Biocontrol GmbH (Associate), Guangzhou Lu-Ben-Yuan Biotech Ltd. Co (Associate) • CABI Centres/Departments: CABI PRC

  4. Part B – Implementation (1)Proposed Organisation Structure • Corporate Management: PMG • Project Board:- • Project Executive: Loke Wai Hong • Senior Users: Loke Wai Hong, Janny Vos • Senior Suppliers: Ulli Kuhlmann, Qiaoqiao Zhang • Project Assurance: Dannie Romney • CABI Budget-holder: Ulli KuhlmannNote that, if not the Project Executive, the CABI Budget-holder must have written confirmation from the Project Executive, and the Project Manager if required by Project Executive, prior to authorising payment. • Project Manager: Ulli Kuhlmann • Team Managers: Manfred Grossrieder, Stefan Toepfer

  6. Part B – Implementation (3)Stages

  7. Part B – Implementation (4)CABI Resource Requirements

  8. Part B – Implementation (5)Customer Acceptance Criteria

  9. Part B – Implementation (6) Customer Acceptance Criteria EuropeAid criteria: Proposal must aim to contribute to overcoming persistent technical and organisational deficites which cause unstable availability, distribution and use of food. For community based projects it is expected that projects contribute to stabilize food production and availability and to improve access to food and nutrition. Topics such as gender equality, access to food and distribution, educational activities, income generation and nutrition must be streamlined Agreement with KECCA and signed partnership statements from partners available Proposal submitted according to call guidelines

  10. Part B – Implementation (6)Project Exclusions & Interfaces • Exclusions • Will focus on cereal crops, primarily maize – no other food crops included • Interfaces • Trichogramma Maize IPM project funded by EuropeAid (until May 2011) • Partnership project funded by EuropeAid (start potentially 1 July 2010 for 30 months) • SDC funded ICM project (until Dec 2011)

  11. Part B – Implementation (7)Key Constraints & Assumptions • Constraints • Political situation in DPR Korea could create difficulties for travel and reaching the most appropriate people to participate in the project • Need appropriately skilled people to run production facilities • Required to operate through Korean-European Co-operation Coordination Agency (KECCA) Assumptions • Essential travel and visa availability is possible through good relationship with KECCA, EuropeAid Pyongyang and other DPRK officials such as in the Department for International Organisations (M0FA) • DPRK governmental officials support entire implementation • Cooperative farms prepared for international collaboration • Production facilities for nematodes reliably run

  12. Part C – Reasons for CABI (1)Key Business Benefits - Strategic • DPRK new member country. • Continuation of presence in DRPK for another 4 years acting as preferred partners in the field of IPM for Ministry of Agriculture. Academy of Agricultural Sciences is long term partner in DPRK. • Raising CABI’s profile in providing solutions to agricultural problems to improve food security in a member country. • Provides further support to maintain a CABI Project Office in Pyongyang’s diplomatic district, which is an essential operational base with international communication options for CABI consultants • Improving CABI’s track record with EuropeAid to increase chances of success in future, including larger amounts of funding.
