This report summarizes the conclusions
of a team of World Bank consultants who visited Cameroon
from May 5 to 23, 2013, from July 28 to August 3, 2013, and
from February 18 to 22, 2014 to lend support to the Ministry
of Agriculture and Rural Development (MINADER), the Ministry
of Livestock, Fisheries, and Animal Husbandry (MINEPIA), the
Ministry of Forestry and Wildlife (MINFOF), and the Ministry
of the Environment, Nature Protection and Sustainable
Development (MINEPDED), in the preparation of a Basic
Agricultural Public Expenditure Diagnostic Review. The
Cameroon government assigns a crucial role to agriculture in
stimulating growth, combating poverty, and job creation. The
objectives of the Basic Agricultural Public Expenditure
Diagnostic Review in Cameroon are as follows: a) to learn
from past experience of budget implementation in the
agricultural sector, identify bottlenecks, inefficiencies,
and deviations from the stated goals, and recommend remedial
measures for existing and future programs, with the
intention of improving their impact and making them more
efficient and equitable; b) to initiate the creation of
databases and formulate the required methodology to conduct
regular comparable reviews, thereby contributing towards the
institutionalization of the process. This database should
facilitate the analysis of factors affecting the growth of
agriculture on a macroeconomic scale within the framework of
a computable general equilibrium model soon to be
established. This model will analyze the role of relative
prices, public expenditure, and exchange rates on the growth
in the sector; c) to assist the government in fostering an
environment and management skills focused on results with
special emphasis on improving planning, implementation, and
budget analysis; and d) to improve awareness of the
absorptive capacities of the sector by the government and
its development partners to help decide how to increase the
financial resources dedicated to agricultural development. |
