Session 3: In-Country Presentations on Value Chain Studies (LSFM Pilot Projects)
Study 3: Market Situation in Vietnam
By Mr. Nguyen Van Tam, Director, Research Department, VNFU
Vietnam is currently transitioning into a market economy. As a new member of the WTO, it is now exporting food products and has diversified some of its economic sectors. However, there are still many challenges ahead before the country can become a 100% market economy:
- Commodity quantities in the markets are still limited and poor
- Production costs are still high and competitiveness is low
- Both entrepreneurs and farmers lack knowledge about the market economy
The value chain analysis that will be done as part of the LSFM project will be on organic tea.
