Social
Benefit : Establishment
of a stable system of organic vegetable
production, currently supporting 47 farm families in Srakaew
province
and capable of supporting 700 within 5 years. Because of the
high value
of fresh asparagus exported to EU markets, farmers earn up to
6 times more than they previously earned under traditional corn-cassava
rotations. The project halps reduce poverty and forest encroachment
and elminates chemical residues used in conventional agriculture.
The expansion of this system will boost the competitive efficiency
of organic farming for export in Thailand. |
