Rural Dairy Finance Consultant +b

Posted by:  Dawn Wadlow wadlowd@care.org

Organization: CARE International-Kosovo

Job title: Rural Dairy Finance Consultant

BACKGROUND:

The CARE International LINK’s Competitive Marketing of Milk Production Enabling Trade and Enterprise Success (LINK COMMPETES) project, is a twenty month project, funded by United States Agency for International Development (USAID) through an umbrella grant managed by Save the Children (SC– US) under USAID’s Kosovo Assistance Program (KAP). The goal of LINK COMMPETES is to increase commercial dairy production, income and employment through targeted and integrated interventions along the production-processing-marketing chain.

The project targets existing and potential commercial dairy farmers throughout Kosovo. The project aims to establish new or improve existing Milk Collection Centers as one key mechanism for marketing grade A milk to approximately seven dairy processors throughout Kosovo. CARE’s interventions focus on increasing the quantity of milk production and enhancing the quality of milk produced at the farm level.  It works in close collaboration with Kosovo Business Support (KBS) project and the Kosovo Swiss Dairy Project (KSDP), which provide technical assistance to the dairy processors to ensure there is a market for the increased quantity of milk from LINK COMMPETES farmers. It is anticipated that there will be a need for some farmers to access finance to establish new milk collection centers. CARE will be instrumental in establishing a rural finance working group to investigate the possibilities of market mechanisms for financing in Kosovo, as at present there is a fundamental lack of credit suitable for rural businesses and start-ups.

A consultant is required to investigate the various mechanisms through which farmers can access private sector financing options that could respond to the working capital and investment capital needs of existing and new MCCs and which is suitable to their production cycles. The consultant will be expected to carry out research with all banks, financial institutions and private sector equipment suppliers, etc, operating within Kosovo or have the desire to do so, as well as consult with the rural finance working group throughout the consultancy. By the end of the consultancy, the consultant should present a clear picture of all financing possibilities available in Kosovo and how these can be accessed by dairy farmers. 

It is expected that a thirty-day consultancy beginning in February 2003, is required in order to carry out extensive field work and prepare a final report of recommendations.  Depending upon the results of this consultancy, the need for a follow-on consultancy may be identified.

SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES:

The objectives of the rural finance consultant are as follows:

1)       To conduct extensive field work to investigate farmers constraints for accessing rural financing

2)       To conduct extensive research work with all major banks, institutions and organizations involved in rural financing.

3)       To develop specific short-term strategies and actions that LINK COMMPETES staff should undertake to respond to the immediate financing constraints encountered.  In preparation of this, the consultant should take responsibility for making preliminary arrangements with the potential financing sources.

4)       To liaison closely with members of the working group in order to build upon their technical expertise and knowledge of the dairy sector, particularly within Europe.

5)       To mentor LINK COMMPETES staff.

6)       To carry out a de-briefing with all project staff on recommendations to ensure these are adopted in the field.

7)       To produce a report on recommended options.

8)       To coordinate with rural finance working group on findings and recommendations.

It is recommended that the consultant accompany technical staff and extension staff to the field as the primary means for conducting an inquiry.  The consultant should use observation techniques as well as a process of dialogue and inquiry with staff “on the job.” and participating farmers.  This would include taking advantage of field visits to address questions to project participants as well as meeting with financial institutes representatives for research and development. Project documentation should also be consulted.

SPECIFIC OUTPUTS:

·        A Final Report on findings and recommendations, to be completed before departing Kosovo.

·        A debriefing with all project staff and financial working group on findings and recommendations prior to departure.

QUALIFICATIONS:

·        Expert in dairy financing both traditional and non-traditional financing options

·        Balkans regional experience or knowledge of inter-ethnic relations in the Balkans is preferable.
