【 摘 要 】

Over the review period covered by thisreport (2003-2012), the budget allocated to agricultureincreased noticeably more than the sector’s contribution toGDP. This reflects a notable effort by the Chad authoritiesto increase the budget to boost this sector’s development inrecent years. In this proactive context, Chad signed itsCAADP compact in December 2013 to continue supportingagriculture’s revival. The CAADP is being implemented inChad even as the terms of the National Rural SectorInvestment Program (PNISR, 2014-2020) are being finalized.Within the context of the CAADP, the Government of Chad(GOC) wished to undertake a review of public agricultureexpenditures to learn from past budgetary implementation inthis sector with a view to improving future programperformance. Following a request by the Ministry ofAgriculture and Irrigation (MoAI), the NEPAD planning andcoordination agency gave Chad it’s backing for this review.This process was undertaken by the Program for StrengtheningNational Comprehensive Agricultural Public Expenditure inSub-Saharan Africa, co-financed by the Bill and MelindaGates Foundation and the CAADP Multi-Donor Trust Fund. Thisprogram, implemented by the World Bank, aims to improve theimpact of the still-limited public resources available togovernments in Sub-Saharan Africa to foster agriculturaldevelopment and reduce poverty in rural areas, where most ofthe poor in these countries, notably Chad, live. This studyfollows and builds upon a number of similar studiesconducted in recent years on public expenditure management,in particular in Chad the Action Plan for the Modernizationof Public Finances (PAMFIP). However, these studies havefocused on budget management as a whole, and none to datehas looked at the agricultural sector specifically.
