Measures taken were effective; they worked because they were relevant and accessible to targeted low-income households. Of the eighteen Phase 2 projects, fifteen included activities that generated significant cash income for participants by increasing agricultural ouputs, increasing efficiency, and or reducing losses of crops and livestock. Two projects have exceptional prospects for both scale and income effects: CBPP vaccine and novel livestock vaccines.
