Description
Summary:After two and half years of implementation (2019–2021), the ‘Livestock-led interventions towards equitable livelihoods and improved environment in the Northwest Highlands of Vietnam’ or Li-chăn project has resulted in agricultural system transformation in northwest Vietnam. Li-chăn implemented bundled livestock-based interventions covering livelihoods, environment, equity, and market access to benefit highland farming communities. In the Feed and Forage Flagship, the project introduced and promoted improved forage varieties to livestock farmers in Mai Son District, including four grasses and three legumes. So far about 155 households in the six villages of Chieng Chung and Chieng Luong communes have trialled different improved forage varieties. The local authorities are supporting the scaling up of the project's model.
