摘要

This paper presents results from research that focused on better understanding rice-based farming systems in Lao People's Democratic Republic (PDR) with the aim of developing appropriate and effective agricultural policies. The study took place in Savannakhet and Champassak provinces in southern Laos in selected villages in lowland rainfed and irrigated areas. Farmers, rice traders, millers and retailers were interviewed, together with authorities from provincial and district agriculture, industry and commerce, to understand production and trade systems in the study area. In total, more than 297 people were interviewed in this study. We found that rice growers have potential to produce rice for the market, but nevertheless face problems associated with seed quality, limited access to and inefficient use of fertiliser, high electricity costs for water pumping to the paddy field, and limited access to credit. These constraints lead to low rice yields. Furthermore, the low quality of rice combined with sudden changes in government rice-related policy adversely affects the incomes of farmers and millers, and acts as a disincentive to production and the improvement of postharvest facilities.
