Abstract

The value chain approach method from Kaplinsky and Morris (2001) was used in this study to analyze the rice value chain in Phong Dien district of Can Tho city. The data of the study were collected from 92 observations, including households, traders, mills, food companies and retailers. Research results showed that the rice value chain is operated through four main market channels. Of which, Channel 1 and Channel 4 are two important channels in the export market (accounting for 47.83% of rice production). Channels 2 and 3 mainly focused on the domestic market and created the quite high value added. Among stakeholders involved in the chain, the household is the stakeholder created the value added and received the highest net value added among stakeholders. In addition, three solutions were proposed to agricultural sector for improving the rice value chain in Phong Dien district of Can Tho city, including (1) Developing the high quality rice fields, (2) Improving the agricultural forecast and market information system; (3) Strengthening technology transfer to farmers.
