Linkages between production and consumption of some key agricultural products in Tuyen Quang province

This study analyzes the current situation and proposes some solutions to strengthen linkages between production and consumption of some key agricultural products, including oranges, sugarcane, and tea, in Tuyen Quang province. The study finds that the implementation of linkages based on contracts for raw agricultural products has brought benefits to both businesses and farming households. The linkages between production and consumption of oranges are mainly made by verbal agreements between producers and traders. Although these linkages have brought certain benefits to stakeholders, there are many weaknesses and inadequacies affecting the competitiveness of Tuyen Quang province’s key agricultural value chains. This study proposes a number of solutions to strengthen linkages between production and consumption of key agricultural products in Tuyen Quang province.
