Impact Investment project with Prantojon Agro Enterprise- Barishal The vision of Prantojon Agro Enterprise is to develop a sustainable agricultural business that generates value for smallholder farmers in the Barisal district of Bangladesh. To achieve this PAE will: • Grow its farmer base from 400 to 3200 Mung bean producers and from 100 to 2000 Lentil producers.  • Increase marketing volumes from 70mt of Mung bean to 430mt and from 5mt of Lentil to 171mt by 2020 • Improve the utilisation of its processing plant going from current 16% of capacity (only one shift) to 87% (1.5 shifts) by 2020. • Establish a formal price setting committee with representatives from farmer groups to ensure farmers get a fair price.  Women make up almost 68% of the labour in the agricultural sector but their contribution is rarely recognised. Apart from agricultural work women are also fully engaged in household chores and do the care work of the household and community where male engagement is very limited. After getting the proportionate Mung bean and lentil from their labour the women farmers hand over pulses to their male members of their family so the ultimate income goes to the male members of the family. Whereas, the decision -making process over the income, women become the missing point.   Through the enterprise, a number of women farmers will have been included and get the proper training about pre and post -harvest and other need -based training and awareness sessions.  Those women farmers can get proper access to production, market system, information or extension services and therefore the experience to make informed and prudent production and productivity related choices, which may also aid the nutrition of the children and other family members.

Bangladesh - Chetona Fish Hatchery at Rajarhat Enterprise Development Programme (EDP) in Bangladesh supports and invests in the enterprise named Chetona Fish Hatchery in Rajarhat, Kurigram District for at least 3 years.  EDP can support the enterprise in the following areas:   -  Working capital for the enterprise  – Fund for infrastructure improvement towards modernisation of the hatchery  – New brood development  – Investment in a vehicle to minimize the transportation cost and to serve the distant customers.   By supporting this enterprise to grow a sustainable 3200 fish nursery, farmers will benefit from the increase in the revenue as well.    Chetona Fish Hatchery was set up in 1998 to hatch fish eggs, sell spawn to fish nurseries, fish farmers and traders.  Currently the enterprise is selling 12 varieties of fish seeds and has made it a leader in Kurigram district's spawn market.  There is a huge demand for quality and indigenous variety of spawn in the local and regional market.  Only approximately 10% of fish farmers are practicing commercial fish cultivation in the area, therefore, an enterprise like Chetona Hatchery can achieve significant technical capacity in the major market share through horizontal and vertical expansion.  - Considering the current market scenario in the fish sector in Bangladesh, the entrepreneur wants to increase its sales turn over minimum 60% by 2019 -2020 through expanding the market coverage as well as introduce some new local variety like Gulisha, Pabda, Sing, Pangash etc. – Become the top -quality spawn and fingerling supplier throughout the region. – Develop the hatchery with modern tools and practice to ensure high quality of spawn for the nursery owners. – Provide technical support to the women led fish farmers as well as nursery on fish farming and nursing issues so that more women can get the opportunity to be economically empowered.

The theory of change for this project recognises that addressing gender norms and barriers plays a crucial role in ensuring access to and use of services. This project is built around highly complementary interventions in three countries (Bangladesh, Somalia and South
