Der Bauer, das Dorf und die Landwirtschaft - Vietnams Agrarsektor im Umbruch

In: Südostasien aktuell: journal of current Southeast Asian affairs, Band 25, Heft 3, S. 50-65

Abstract

Even after 20 years of reforms the importance of agriculture cannot be valued highly
enough: It covers 25% of the GDP and 30% of the total export value and absorbs 67% of
the national manpower. Inspite of its success, the agricultural sector is still suffering from
ineffectiveness, a lacking adaptation of market rules and an underdeveloped environmental
awareness.
