The ICRIPs Sub-Activity is expected to benefit 3,217 households, amounting to 25,736 individual beneficiaries across the targeted communes through small scale irrigation. These figures were calculated by prorating the WB beneficiary numbers for the initial 30 communes where they identified irrigation potential. Niger Compact Agriculture and Irrigation (Ag & Irr) The Government of Niger (GoN) and MCC signed a Compact Agreement on July 29, 2016 to recognize MCC's provision of a US $437 million grant to the Government. The five-year Compact entered into force on January 26, 2018 and will end in January 2023. The Compact's stated goal is to increase rural incomes by improving the sustainable productive use of natural resources for agricultural production and improve trade and market access for agricultural products. The Compact consists of two projects: the Irrigation and Market Access Project (IMAP) and the Climate-Resilient Communities Project (CRC). The CRC Project consists of two activities: the Regional Project in Support of Pastoralism in the Sahel (PRAPS) and the CRA Activity. PRAPS focuses on livestock development, while the CRA Activity concentrates primarily on agricultural development. This evaluation focuses on the CRA Activity.
