The document outlines a development strategy for a farmer organization (FO) involved in biotrade in Northern Laos from 2017-2020. The vision is for the FO to use biotrade opportunities to develop value chains, create jobs, increase incomes, and benefit the rural population while protecting biodiversity. The mission is for the FO to contribute to sustainable development at provincial/district levels and represent farmers in national environmental agreements. The goal is to strengthen the FO to do business that benefits from sustainable biodiversity use and development. The strategy will be implemented through infrastructure development, supporting services, and enabling policies to promote sustainable resource use and increase farmer incomes through value addition.
