Lesson Description Source
Expand Coverage There is a need to improve the system for allocating support by using productive unit identifiers instead of cédulas. There is also potential to increase coverage from the current 15%.
Differential support New beneficiaries achieve greater impacts than those with previous support. Likewise, there is a need for differentiated incentives.
Need to improve targeting Beneficiaries already had better previous performance. There is a need to improve the targeting of producers with greater potential for improvement.
Consider longer maturation time Consider longer timeframes for impact assessment, especially in livestock farming. Post-intervention follow-up is important.
