Descripción
In developing countries, the success with which rural populations become formal sector market participants is critical to their sustained emergence from subsistence and poverty. The objective of this work, and the larger project from which it originates, is to improve understanding about how markets can act as catalysts for rural poverty alleviation. The larger Pro-Poor Livestock Policy Initiative (PPLPI) project deals with livestock generally, but in the present case we focus on poultry, a cate gory of special economic and public health importance in the Southeast Asian region. This report summarizes results from detailed surveys of poultry markets in and around Ha Noi, Viet Nam, which included separate surveys of six different supply-side market participants (consumers were the subject of a different survey): (1) Chicken Farmers; (2) Chick Producers; (3) Commune Traders; (4) Wholesale Traders; (5) Slaughterhouses; and (6) Market Vendors.
