Our prior project with the Dutch Government, “Subsistence to Self-Reliance – Bringing the Power of Markets to Africa’s Lowest-Income Farmers” underscored our shared passion for inclusive economic development and showcased the key milestones that we can accomplish together. Core operating support from DGIS facilitated the strategic expansion of One Acre Fund’s ‘impact ecosystem.’ Within two years, we doubled the scale of our farmer network, launched operations in two new country programs (Malawi and Uganda), and rolled out impactful new products like tree planting kits and clean cookstoves at country-wide scale. Simultaneously, we refined our innovative systems-change platform, leveraging our core organizational competencies to improve large-scale public and private actors’ service to smallholders. This success has now placed One Acre Fund in a position where we can realistically envision moving the needle on hunger and poverty across the entire African continent. Our current project with DGIS, “Leading the Charge to Eradicate Rural Poverty,” aims to capture this powerful opportunity. The project involves a smartly structured two-part investment spanning September 15, 2018 – December 31, 2022: First, DGIS is once again providing critical support to the varied, evolving platforms within our organization that lay the foundation for our growth and impact. Core operating support from DGIS will enhance and extend One Acre Fund’s proven model by funding key strategic priorities across our M&E, R&D, and new country expansion units. Secondly, DGIS is also providing working capital to revolutionize One Acre Fund’s growth trajectory. This injection to our ‘permanent fund’ will completely fund our projected expansion of 245,000+ new farm families in 2019, bringing us past the 1 millionth farmer milestone. Crucially, farmers’ loan repayments will replenish our permanent fund each year, allowing us to re-extend this contribution to provide input loans to an estimated 245,000 farm families (including over 980,000 children) annually. This project will anchor One Acre Fund’s expansion to directly serve 1.85 million farm families annually by year-end 2022. Simultaneously, it will help us reach an additional 3.5 million farmers via systems-change partnerships that are expressly designed to transform entire agricultural ecosystems. Together, the reach of these efforts will generate transformative change for rural communities across rural Africa.

	Actual comment Target Exceeded. We reached 809,800 farm families by year-end, above our original scale target due to particularly strong demand in our Kenya and Rwanda programs. Our newest country-programs (Uganda, Malawi, Zambia) suffered impact setbacks in 2018 due to pests and low maize prices; we have therefore chosen to temporarily pause expansion efforts in these countries while we improve our customer value proposition (for example, testing smaller loan sizes in Uganda to boost demand). In addition, we faced a number of unexpected regulatory challenges in our Burundi program which affected program scale.

	Actual comment Target Slightly Missed. In 2019, One Acre Fund served a below-target 1,004,000 farm families across seven countries. This represents a 25% year-over-year expansion, and encompasses an estimated 3.2M children. While we did not hit the original target, we did pass the symbolic threshold of serving 1 million farmers through our core program in 2019 - propelling us towards our goal of serving 1.7 million farm families by year-end 2022 as outlined in our grant agreement.

	Target comment Original Target: 1,247,000 Re-forecasted Target: 1,260,000
	Actual comment Target Exceeded: One Acre Fund grew to serve 1.3 million farmers, surpassing both our original and re-forecasted scale targets. This represents 30% year-on-year growth, achieved even as we paused outward expansion in almost all program countries in response to COVID-19. Below-average enrolment rates in Kenya and Tanzania – driven by both the pandemic and multiple years of climate-related harvest challenges – were balanced out by particularly robust farmer demand in Rwanda and our newer “Growth Countries,” especially Malawi. We also successfully operated our program in Nigeria. The expansion of our core program scale is particularly notable given operational limitations during the pandemic, and reflects persistent farmer demand for our program in the face of increasing financial pressure.

	Target comment Original Target: 1,530,000 Re-forecasted target: 1,420,000
	Actual comment Target Slightly Exceeded One Acre Fund grew to serve more than 1.44 million farmers through our core program — an increase of 435,000 new client families since the start of the pandemic. The provision of our core model grows only more important in light of the continued challenges that COVID-19 poses to smallholder farmers. This year has been marked by unprecedented demand for quality inputs on credit and climate-smart training as alternative income sources for farm families dry up. As such, we seek to accelerate our core program growth in 2022 by driving growth in our mature countries. In doing so, we will lay the groundwork now to double in size by 2024.

	Target comment This past year saw an extremely difficult operating environment caused by disruptions to agricultural supply chains and the effects of climate change. For Africa’s rural communities, these challenges have made it more difficult to purchase everyday necessities and invest in their farms. Africa is now in a major food crisis, with tens of millions of people at risk of slipping into extreme hunger and poverty. One Acre Fund’s proven ability to help farm families achieve food security is needed more urgently than ever in this context. This is confirmed by robust demand for our program, stemming from the lack of alternative solutions for protecting incomes and food security during these challenging times. As a result, we served an above-target 1.6 million farm families through our core program in 2022. In 2022, we deepened our impact through climate-smart farming, tree planting, crop insurance, and market access.

	Baseline comment In 2017, we achieved an average impact of $140 per farmer.We attribute this result to exceptional weather conditions, and have therefore set more conservative targets for the duration of this partnership.
	Actual comment Target Missed. 2018 was a difficult year for all farmers across our territories. This was due to a combination of external challenges; most notably, average maize prices across East Africa dropped by as much as 70% since this time last year. Unfavorable rainfall also hurt farmers’ harvests. Taken together, lower yields and lower output prices will significantly reduce farmers’ incomes, driving down our absolute dollar impact. Furthermore, in our agroforestry work (our main ‘add-on’ product), we invested in a more rigorous methodology that resulted in a smaller (but more accurate) assessment of trees planted by non-One Acre Fund families. Coming one year after One Acre Fund’s highest ever impact in 2017, our 2018 dollar impact reflects the challenging, cyclical nature of smallholder agriculture. Nevertheless, participation in our core program in 2018 still led to a 40% income gain on supported activities for clients relative to non-One Acre Fund farmers, reflecting how One Acre Fund is a strong investment even in challenging years. In Uganda, for instance, clients harvested more than twice as much maize as neighboring non-client farmers, and in Rwanda and Uganda, while average impact per farmer was lower than 2017, yields per acre were higher. We also believe that low dollar impact does not necessarily correlate to greater household hunger, since our client families consume much of what they grow.

	Actual comment Target Missed. We are pleased to report that our performance has improved since 2018 with One Acre Fund clients having earned 44% more than their non-client neighbors on supported activities in 2019 — reflecting that our program was a strong investment for farmers. However, several external factors reduced our absolute impact to a below-target $95. Primary headwinds included late rains in Kenya and Tanzania that reduced harvests and regulatory challenges in Burundi that constrained our ability to import and distribute. Stepping back, the 2018-2019 impact represents a two-year anomaly against our long-term impact trajectory; given the cyclical nature of smallholder harvests. Longer-term, we do believe that higher impact is achievable through a combination of crop diversification and market access efforts.

	Target comment Original Target: 160 Re-forecasted Target: 120
	Actual comment Target Missed: One Acre Fund clients earned an average of $81 more than non-participating farmers on supported activities – despite the unique challenges of 2020. Farmers in multiple program countries struggled with poor weather that damaged harvests; meanwhile, pandemic-driven restrictions made it difficult for Field Officers to carry out in-person meetings with farmers. This led to reduced trainings, and fewer visits to farmers’ fields to ensure that trainings were being applied correctly. While initial projections indicated that strong rainfall could help overcome the pandemic’s effects on our program impact, the latest analyses point to the most difficult impact year in One Acre Fund’s history, underscoring the toll of limited training and market disruptions. Nevertheless, One Acre Fund farmers achieved 39.48% higher yields than non-participating farmers – a meaningful improvement in food availability and surplus to sell for expenditures, especially in a pandemic year.

	Actual comment Target Exceeded Despite partial crop failure in some markets (e.g., flooding in parts of Tanzania, locust infestation in Kenya’s central region) and COVID-19 related input delivery / planting delays in others, we achieved an above-target incremental income boost of $104 per farmer in 2021. This means OAF clients earned an average of $104 more than non-participating farmers on supported activities. We attribute this to ongoing organizational investments in climate resilience, including agroforestry and crop diversification, which are helping clients achieve reliable profits in difficult staple crop years.

In 2022, high input prices reduced the amount of land farmers planted with One Acre Fund methods and inputs, but market prices on farmer crop sales were higher. We will report our final 2022 impact figure in early 2023, but preliminary analysis shows that we will narrowly miss our $100 impact target.

	Actual comment Target Missed. We attained a below target SROI due to a combination of factors: impact challenges (low average dollar impact for maize, reduced asset impact) affected farmer loan repayment and enrollment, which in turn led to higher-than-anticipated program deficits. Additionally, please note that we have adjusted our 2017 SROI figure in light of more conservative impact measurements for trees and solar lights.

	Target comment N/A
	Actual comment Target Missed. Impact challenges in our growth countries (Uganda, Malawi, Tanzania and Zambia) caused social return on investment (SROI) to dip below our targets for this cohort in 2019. Uncontrollable, external factors such as severe weather shocks, market price movements, currency fluctuations, and other shocks severely influenced our impact and SROI which led to lower harvests and farmer revenue, respectively. These factors decreased impact and farmer repayment while negatively affecting our revenue model via lower farmer repayment—i.e. decreasing our SROI.

	Target comment Original Target: 9 Re-forecasted Target: 5
	Actual comment Target Missed We achieved an SROI of 3.6, meaning that every $1 in donor funding generated $3.6 in farmer impact. This is below our re-forecasted target of 5 – a shortfall that can be traced back to reduced revenues and increased net costs due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The economic impact of the pandemic – including food price inflation, lost incomes due to market closure, etc. – placed significant financial pressure on farmers’ incomes, reducing loan repayment rates. In 2020, our organization-wide repayment rate fell to 93% (compared to our historical average of 97%). Our operational costs in 2020 were also higher than anticipated due to our COVID response measures, which are focused on providing food security and frontline COVID-19 protection for Africa’s small-scale farmers through the pandemic’s most difficult phase. In addition to program digitization, we undertook the distribution of crucial products and services including: soap distribution; reference guides for proper hand-washing; and tutorials on how to build a hand-washing station using locally available materials. Despite these challenges, we believe that our SROI represents leading cost-efficiency when compared to peer organizations serving our target population.

	Target comment Original Target: 12 Re-forecasted target: 3.4
	Actual comment Target Exceeded We measure our efficiency, or Social Return On Investment (SROI), as the amount of new profits our farmers generate for every $1 of donor investment in our program. We achieved an SROI of 3.6, meaning that our program generated $3.60 for every $1 of donor funding, an impressive social return on investment that benchmarks favorably to our most relevant peer programs. Along with robust impact (i.e., the numerator in the SROI calculation), lower costs (the denominator) in 2021 led to above-target results. Key drivers of lower costs included our efforts to offset pandemic-related challenges, including cash constraints on our farmers in our largest markets (Kenya and Rwanda). To ease the financial burden on our clients, we instituted targeted loan forgiveness and extended repayment deadlines in some contexts - boosting repayment rates and field sustainability. Additionally, to lower operational costs, we accelerated digital services that focus on direct farmer interaction through tools such as mass training SMS, mobile repayment, and an interactive voice response hotline.

	Target comment We measure our efficiency, or Social Return On Investment (SROI), as the amount of new profits our farmers generate for every $1 of donor investment in our program. Our below-target SROI projection is linked to higher costs resulting from global increases in the price of inputs (including fertilizer). One Acre Fund has had to absorb some of this cost so that our farmers do not have to shoulder the brunt of it. However, we pulled levers to drive costs down and improve impact, including improving margin and impact per farmer, and expanding our commercialization pilots in various countries.

	Actual comment Target Exceeded. Our systems change platform has grown rapidly in scope and impact, expanding from 450,000 farmer touchpoints in 2016 to over 1.57 million touchpoints in 2018, far above our target of 950,000 farmer touchpoints. This growth has centered on new, high-SROI partnerships that in 2018 generated an average $12+ in impact per farmer touchpoint (compared to $10 in 2016). These new partnerships have expanded the scale of our systems change work by providing new channels for reaching farmers, such as through agroforestry and farm-facing legislation.

	Target comment N/A
	Actual comment Target Exceeded In 2019, we reached 2.466 million farmer touchpoints via large-scale public and private sector partnerships in Rwanda, Malawi, Tanzania, and Ethiopia — ahead of our target, and representing 55% year-over-year expansion. Particularly important were our increased investments in agroforestry through government partnerships in Rwanda, Malawi, and Ethiopia, resulting in more than 7.6m surviving trees through these channels. Additionally, our rural retail work in Kenya — in which we operate One Acre Fund-branded agro dealer shops — reached 6,000 touchpoints, with strong potential for future scale and impact; retail shops can address key barriers to market penetration. As we scale and improve impact, DGIS support will continue to propel this work forward.

	Target comment Original Target: 2,350,000 Re-forecasted target: 2,960,000
	Actual comment Target Exceeded: We reached 3.1 million farmer touchpoints across five countries, exceeding both our original and re-forecasted targets and representing a strong 27% year-on-year expansion. Our Ethiopia program continued to pioneer a decentralized nursery model where One Acre Fund provides local tree nursery operators with ‘starter kits’ to produce seedlings that are then distributed to farmers with varying levels of subsidy. In 2020, this work supported more than 70,000 farmers in planting over 2.5 million surviving trees, with a projected average impact of over $110 per adopter. The model is scaling rapidly, supporting farm-level agroforestry while contributing to a burgeoning network of local nursery entrepreneurs. Every donor dollar invested in our systems change work unlocked $6.40 in farmer impact – a 16% improvement compared to 2019.

	Target comment Original Target: 3,000,000 Re-forecasted target: 4,418,000
	Actual comment Target Slightly Exceeded We define farm families 'reached' as households that benefitted from at least one systems-change intervention. In addition to serving individual farm families through our core program, One Acre Fund is also delivering country-scale solutions to address gaps in agricultural value chains — making markets ‘work’ for underserved smallholders. We generated an above-target 4.2 million additional touchpoints (outside our core program; 1.84 million unique farm families) through our systems-change work in 2021. For instance, we have replicated national tree campaigns in Rwanda, Malawi, and Ethiopia in collaboration with government and private nursery entrepreneurs; similarly, our seed production work, pioneered with local seed companies in Rwanda, is now on track to increase adoption of hybrid seed across Kenya and Tanzania. Through our systems-change platform, we are leveraging the power of public-private partnerships to shift country-wide agricultural systems into a ‘pro-poor’ equilibrium.

	Target comment This year, we achieved 6.4 million touchpoints through our systems change platform. For our DGIS partnership, we measure the scale of our systems change work through ‘farmer touchpoints,’ capturing the total number of interventions delivered; importantly, a single farmer can experience multiple touchpoints in a given season (e.g., in Rwanda: Farmer Promoter trainings, tree distribution, and seed produced by One Acre Fund). In 2022, we increased scale by 50% compared with 2021 (4.2 million touchpoints). This corresponds to 2.5 million unique families reached, or 670 more than 2021. Despite this rapid increase, we nonetheless fell short of the ambitious target for touchpoints we set for ourselves at the beginning of 2022 (6.7 million). Growth in 2022 was concentrated in projects with high cost-effective impact, including tree, seed, and rural retail programs. We are on track to serve ~3 million households through our Rural Retail Program alone by 2025.
