Abstract

The crisis of avian influenza occurred in Vietnam in late 2003 has affected the organization of the local poultry value chain. This crisis has resulted in an alliance between the Vietnamese government and agro-industrial sector considered more capable than the traditional one, to meet the requirements of biosecurity. In the short term, this alliance has allowed agro-industrial groups to develop and to take the control of a growing number of activities in the avian chain through a process of vertical integration (animal raising slaughtering, retailing) and, to a lesser extent, through contracting with farmers. This movement was slowed down once the crisis abated, since consumers turned back to traditional products, Remerciements : Ce travail a ete realise dans le cadre du projet Gripavi, finance par le ministere francais des Affaires Etrangeres, et coordonne par le CIRAD. Il s'appuie en grande partie sur les entretiens realises dans le cadre du stage de Master d'Economie de M. Anh Tuan Pham (2009).
