Abstract
The retrospective application of the logical framework approach to the planning of a smallholder rice production project is reviewed. The assumptions and risks contained in the project's logical framework matrix are equated to those considered in sensitivity and risk analysis. Distinctions between project efficiency, effectiveness and impact are examined, as is the role of the project manager in the achievement of the project outputs, objective and sector goals. A socio-economic issue and the provision of monitoring and evaluation services are examined. Nowadays an environmental impact assessment report and socio-economic baseline studies would be required prior to project appraisal. Increased consideration would also be given to socio-economic factors in relation to the likely achievement of crop production targets.
