Observations

Descriptive name; official identifier: OSRO/SLM/011/CAN. The registered budget is the documented Canadian contribution of USD 1,000,000, not an appeal amount or the regional plan budget. SFERA is the funding channel, not a second contribution. Original currency USD, exchange_rate=1; unidentified counterpart=NULL. No verified annual allocation: year_allocation=0, years_count and annual_average_budget=NULL. DATES: project highlights were published on 18 June 2024; contractual dates could not be verified. Under the protocol fallback rule, start_date=2024-01-01 and start_date_only_year=1 use the publication year, NOT a verified actual start year; review required. end_date, stage_id and temporality_id remain NULL without sufficient evidence. Seed distribution documented for broader regional FAO operations is not automatically attributed to this project; seed, irrigation and training instruments are not assigned without project-specific verification. Regional initiative 909 is different and is not used as a policy framework.
