| Summary: | This note provides guidance on how to
monitor the performance and impact of agricultural
investments, and on which aspects to observe. Ongoing
monitoring of investments is a key way to hold investors
accountable for contractual commitments and deliver the
expected benefits to the country and surrounding
communities. It also facilitates early identification of
emerging negative impacts or of failing investments,
enabling remedial actions. Monitoring is often deficient
because of a lack of resources and systematic procedures,
which allows negative impacts to escalate beyond what will
otherwise be the case. Internal monitoring is likewise good
practice for investors and their financiers, though the
field research indicated room for improvement. |
