Abstract

This compilation of four country case studies provides a comprehensive understanding of challenges, good practices, and lessons learnt under different situations. In the Lao People’s Democratic Republic, a cross-border vegetable trade agreement with its neighboring, Thailand, aided in stabilizing market prices and provided financial benefits to local contract farmers. Similarly, organic certification and geographic indication of sugar palm in Cambodia linked local farmers to the global market, while an organic fair trade rice supply chain in Thailand ensured quality assurance and product traceability. Organic certification and fair trade practices in Viet Nam enabled farmers to realize fair trade premium prices for their agricultural products.
