This additional grant for the Afghanistan Emergency Irrigation Rehabilitation Project (EIRP) will support additional activities under the various components of the ongoing project: (i) rehabilitation of irrigation infrastructure; (ii) rehabilitation of hydro-meteorological network; (iii) monitoring and evaluation (M&E), and preparation of feasibility studies for future projects; and (iv) capacity building and institutional strengthening of the Ministry of Energy and Water (MEW). The additional financing will support rehabilitation of about 30 additional medium or lesser and 4 large schemes; expansion of the hydro-meteorological network in Afghanistan; preparation of irrigation schemes for future implementation; M&E, including continued support to the M&E unit, for, inter alia, and mainstreaming of M&E activities in MEW; and continuation of various institutional strengthening and capacity building activities. Expected outcomes from the additional financing will be as follows: (i) irrigated agriculture will be restored in an additional area of over 42,000 ha that is currently out of command because of the dilapidated state of the irrigation facilities; (ii) increase in agricultural production in rehabilitated irrigation schemes; and (iii) enhanced capacity in MEW to better forecast river flows and water availability and provide prior warnings of floods and drought. The additional financing will help the Government in achieving its rural development benchmarks of the draft Afghanistan National Development Strategy (ANDS). It will also provide a clear signal of the Bank's continued support for the Government's broad development efforts, especially for the need to better target benefits towards poor farming communities.**
