| description | Background: Poor sustainability of funded potato projects occasioned by nonparticipation of
potato farmers in local resourcing of funded potato projects continue to discourage donors from
more investments because previously funded projects are not sustainable. Understanding the local
participation-related project resourcing factors will be of profound significance in restoring the
confidence of donors in the funding of potato projects.
Objective: To determine the effect of participatory local resourcing on the sustainability of
donor-funded potato projects in Kabale District.
Materials and Methods: This study adopted a descriptive survey design, and it used potato
farmers as the unit of analysis. Data were collected by administering questionnaires survey a
sample population of 196 potato farmers. Structural equation modeling was used to test
hypotheses.
Results: Largely for all the paradigms of project resourcing (land, cost sharing, organic fertilizer
and labour) donor funded potato projects have got challenges of sustainability
Conclusion: Project resourcing affects the sustainability of donor-funded potato projects in
Kabale District
Recommendations: For effective sustainability of donor-funded potato projects, donors
should allow potato project beneficiaries to participate in the project resourcing through the provision of land, inorganic manure, as well as cost-sharing so they know that, they have a stake
in the project they are implementing |
