Functional context
In March 2014 Hivos started implementation of a 'M4P' (Making Markets Work
for the Poor) project funded by DFAT under its Australia-Indonesia
Partnership for Promoting Rural Income through Support for Markets in
Agriculture (AIP-PRISMA) program. The project "Commercial Pig Rearing in
NTT" is a two-year initiative implemented in conjunction with individual
farmers, local partners and the private sector in eight locations in Flores,
NTT.
The objective of the project is to increase pig farmer incomes by improving
and incentivising productivity. This will be achieved by addressing several
constraints on farmers' efficient participation in the market, namely:
facilitating farmer access to finance; increasing the speed at which pigs
can be raised via the introduction of improved pig breeds; encouraging the
development of service providers for fodder, extension services, commercial
aggregation and processing; and developing retail, wholesale and export
potential in NTT.
Hivos's project is supported by a two-person Monitoring and Results
Measurement (MRM) field team, who are responsible for the monitoring,
evaluation and learning dimensions of the project. The team operates in

indicator formulation using the SMART concept. He/she translates the
project's Theory of Change into tangible indicators for monitoring and
evaluation; analyses, validates and aggregates output, outcomes and learning
in all phases of the primary process, in close partnership with the Project
Manager. The MRMO proves the potential sustainability of social solutions
and makes accountability feasible.
The MRMO will provide support in delivering fact-based evidence that will
sharpen new and/or ongoing project implementation.
The MRMO provides the technical evidence to be used by the Projects teams
and works in close partnership with all positions mentioned above, to
provide back-up and support to successfully implement activities and put
