\textbf{Abstract}
\begin{abstract}
\normalsize{
Rural food insecurity continues to be an unfortunate shadow of many regions,
 such as semi"=arid Dodoma and sub"=humid Morogoro regions in Tanzania. In this
 sense, Trans-SEC project is oriented to understand and address this problem
 under the umbrella of a Food Value Chain approach. In this five years
 project, interdisciplinary groups of researchers alongside local rural
 stakeholders designed and evaluated strategies to enhance local food
security.
 This paper will present the outcome of an \textit{ex"=ante} vs. \textit{ex"=post} mid"=term
 evaluation, where local stakeholders scored the implemented strategies based
 on their personal experiences. Using a focus group discussion, nine
 different strategies were evaluated and scored under nine food security
criteria, by a sample of implementers. The evaluation was then discussed in
 the focus group to gain insights on the ``impact arguments'' and story lines
behind seemingly odd scores. Later"=on, the outcome of these evaluations was
 then compiled, compared and analysed within the village and in between villages and regions, thus gaining a deeper understanding on the reasons
 behind different outcomes. 
Results show expected differences between regions, but interestingly there
 are differences between outcomes that are not entirely related to
bio"=physical characteristics of the region. The qualitative analysis pointed
 at implementation status, engagement attitude, unexpected drought
conditions, and poor implementation. Whereas the analysis of determinants
 shows that there are context specific characteristics that influence, both
expectations and impact results. Regarding the food security criteria there
 are clear differences within and between villages both in expectations and
impact results. Results signaled areas of improvement in project design, targeting and implementation practices.
