This Sourcebook has been prepared to
help in implementing the World Bank's current rural
strategy, by sharing information on investment options and
innovative approaches that will aid the design of future
lending programs for agriculture. The Sourcebook provides
generic good practices and many examples that demonstrate
that investment in agriculture can provide rewarding and
sustainable returns to development efforts. The contents
have been assembled from all regions and thematic groups of
the Bank, and from the experiences of many partners. The
Sourcebook is intended as a ready reference for
practitioners (World Bank staff and their partners in
borrowing countries) seeking summary information on the
state of the art about good practice for agricultural
investments, and innovative activities that merit close
monitoring for potential scaling up. The Sourcebook is
divided into eleven self-contained modules. Each module
contains three different types of subunits, which can also
be stand-alone documents. The Sourcebook thus provides
introductions to topics, but not detailed guidelines on
" how to " design and implement investments. The
standalone nature of each subunit of the Sourcebook allows
flexibility and adaptability of the materials, but
necessarily results in some replication of the issues covered.
