Market-led Approach to MUS: SIMI*
• Background
• Micro-scale MUS
• Market-led approach
MUS Development• Domestic & Irrigation
– Surplus water for irrigation• 28 community systems• 1,000 households
• Cost – $100 (tap)– $10-$35 (irrigation equip)
• Benefit– Income >$200/yr – Health & nutrition
MUS with dual tap for drip irrigation and domestic use.
Low cost water storage tank for an MUS scheme.
How it Works … The Value Chain
• Input Supplier
• Producer
• Output Markets
Supply-chain development: A key supporting investment for MUS
Appropriate inputs for agriculture, drinking water
(and sanitation)
Embedded services
Results:
• 240 agrovets
• 5 tap/micro irrigation manufactures
• 2 drip assemblers
• 133 micro-irrigation dealers
• 7 extension services (7 districts)
• Sales of 26,230 micro-irrigation systems
Note: Only 1,280 purchased via micro-credit
Producer
• Build capacity of early adopters
• Facilitating access to inputs and credit
• Education
Results:
• 31,000 households (200,000 people) in 1500 farmer groups
• $7.3 million in increased incomes (BCA 3:1)
• Year 1: $100/hh for 16,000 households
• Year 2: $195/hh for 26,000 households
Market development: Critical for economic opportunities linked to MUS
Results:
• 43 market collection centers
• Established value chains across 9 districts serving 3 million
Government: key role• Strategic investments
• Focus on market failures
Conclusions • Economic valuation of alternative uses can
serve as a decision making tool
• Opportunity cost of non-integrated management can be high
• Linking value chain approach to MUS can increase economic returns and reduce subsidies
