    Aquafeed value chain analysis and a review of regulatory framework of striped catfish farming in Viet Nam 2019

    This Fisheries and Aquaculture Technical Paper presents the findings of a value chain analysis of the aquafeed (aquatic animal feed) sub-sector for the striped catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) farming in Viet Nam, including a review of aquafeed regulatory framework in the country. The striped catfish (pangasius) production sub-sector is characterized by intensive pond production technology and high-quality production inputs. In 2014, annual production of pangasius was 1 143 797 tonnes. The key actors in the value chain comprise input suppliers, including feed ingredients suppliers, feed manufacturers, and hatchery operators (seed producers), along with fingerling and grow-out farmers, fish processors, exporters, consumers and service providers. In recent years, large-scale vertically integrated enterprises have started to emerge that operate along the entire value chain, and these now dominate many areas of production.

    Determinants of Participation in Contract Farming in Pig Production in Northern Viet Nam
    Pro-Poor Livestock Policy Initiative: A Living from Livestock

    The rapid growth in demand for pork in Viet Nam presents an opportunity for rural households raising pigs to improve their incomes. This market potential could be exploited to improve incomes of rural smallholders through institutional arrangements that provide improved access to livestock markets and services, through formal and informal contract arrangements. Contract arrangements, however, have explicit and implicit barriers to entry that tend to exclude smallholders, depending on the nature of the contracts. Based on data from a field survey conducted in four provinces in Northern Viet Nam in 2005-06, comprising a sample of 400 pig raising households (200 independent producers, 166 farmers with informal contracts, and 34 farmers with formal contracts with a large integrator), a multinomial logit model was used to identify the factors that determine the likelihood of engagement in formal or informal contracts. A simple probit model was subsequently developed for the determinants of engagement in informal contract arrangements.
