Sustainable citrus chain empowering and developing smallholders in the Mekong Delta

About this project

The project aims at making the citrus sector of the Mekong Delta more sustainable, more efficient, and more profitable for 2,250 citrus smallholders (750 smallholder farmers and 2 key staff members per farm).This goal will be achieved by developing a sustainable citrus value chain, in which farmers will be contracted and supported, through a private sector extension system, fertiliser advisory service, access to virus free citrus seedlings and access to a finance programme, in order to increase their incomes by least 50%.These interventions will reduce the negative impacts of agrochemicals on the environment and human health, as well as reduce the use of surface and ground water.
