This is due to various reasons, including the intrinsic complexity of value chain interventions, intricate contextual support factors, presence of multilevel system actors, constant adaption to market and nonmarket forces and the cost associated with conducting an evaluation. This paper discusses a range of approaches and benchmarks that can guide future design of value chain impact evaluations. Twenty studies were reviewed to understand the status and direction of value chain impact evaluations. A majority of the studies focus on evaluating the impact of only a few interventions, at several levels within the value chains. Few impact evaluations are based on well-constructed, well-conceived comparison groups. Most of them rely on use of propensity score matching to construct counterfactual groups and estimate treatment effects. Instrumental variables and difference-in-difference approaches are the common empirical approaches used for mitigating selection bias due to unobservables. More meaningful value chain impact evaluations should be prioritized from the beginning of any project and a significant amount of rigor should be maintained; targeting a good balance of using model-based and theory-based approaches.Item Supporting the cross-cutting agenda in the Livestock and Fish CGIAR Research Program: Gender, partnerships, monitoring, evaluation and learning, and capacity development(Internal Document, 2013-09-11) CGIAR Research Program on Livestock and FishItem Locating the learning component(Internal Document, 2013-05-19) CGIAR Research Program on Livestock and FishItem Livestock and Fish impact pathways and theory of change: Achieving more milk, meat and fish by and for the poor through two impact pathways(Poster, 2013-10-14) Kidoido, Michael M.Item Creating gendered monitoring, evaluation and learning indicators for the Livestock and Fish research program(Presentation, 2013-10-14) Kidoido, Michael M.; Kruijssen, Froukje; Galiè, AlessandraItem Livestock and Fish monitoring, evaluation and learning framework(Presentation, 2013-11-27) Child, K.Item Draft medium-term IDO indicators for the CGIAR Research Program on Livestock and Fish(Presentation, 2013-11-27) Brandes, R.Item Draft indicators for the CGIAR Research Program on Livestock and Fish intermediate development outcomes(Presentation, 2013-11-27) Brandes, R.Item Nicaragua dual purpose cattle value chain impact pathways narrative(Report, 2013-11-30) Kidoido, Michael M.; Korir, Luke; Hoek, Rein van derItem Tanzania dairy value chain impact pathways narrative(Report, 2013-10) Kidoido, Michael M.; Korir, LukeItem Gender research in the Livestock and Fish research program(Poster, 2013-11-05) CGIAR Research Program on Livestock and FishItem The Uganda pig value chain impact pathways narrative(Report, 2013-10-30) Kidoido, Michael M.; Korir, LukeItem Report of the Egypt aquaculture value chain theory of change meeting, Sharkia, Egypt, 24-25 June 2013(Report, 2013-07) Dickson, M.; Longley, K.; Kantor, PaulaItem Taller de Rutas de Impacto y Planificación de Livestock and Fish Cadena de Valor de Doble Propósito en Nicaragua, Managua, Nicaragua, 5-9 de agosto, 2013(Report, 2013-08-31) International Center for Tropical Agriculture
