220,000 Farmer Trained in Sustainable GAP, of which 2/3 have
adopted the practices
220,000
Preliminary calculations of economic benefits per
year of coffee project for Vietnam’s farmers.
Farmers Engaged 220,000 @ 50%* adoption = 110,000 (approx.)
Coffee area / farmer typically 1.3 to 3 ha each = 1.3 Ha (low av.)
No Assumption on yield change (existing yields difficult to improve)
Cost savings / ha at 13% of input costs $ 283 = $ 270 / ha ( conserative)
110,000 farms x 1.3/ha x US$ 275/ha = $ 40,000,000 pa
* Weighted av @ 69%
Summary of Benefits delivered by the VCCB: Farmer Incomes,
GHG emissions, Policy development and improved co-operation
in the national value chain
 over 150,000 farmers adopted in GAP and Sustainable Practises,
 The revised production have lowered costs, GHG and lifted yields. Farmer
benefits at some $ 75 MN/year
 The change in VAT collection saved exporters some $ 175 MN p.a. in cashflow
 Dramatic drop in the use of band pesticides by farmers – from 15.8% to 0.5% -
pilot training
 VCCB created a national Coffee community, shared learnings, policy
development & action.
 Process enables strategy, policy & activities to be refined and improved in the light
of feedback from producers
 Training & demonstration plots with GHG reduction alone do not necessarily
lead to adoption of new techniques, cost savings more important
 Ground level implementation only happened at scale when local level PPP
Coordination units were in place,
 Top down processes, without being complimented by bottom-up feedback loops,
are in danger of not addressing the real issues that farmers are facing on the
ground
 Individual projects will not, in themselves, achieve scale. They are useful for
piloting and proving effectiveness and creditability. Scale is dependent on
creating a wider network of multi-stakeholder partners
Mistakes to avoid
 The process takes time: 4 years pilots & demos, 3 years since the start of scale
trainings
 Multiple Partners involved: Initial Task Force 23 - 5 were key. VCCB membership
15,
 Field results scaled through the impact of local Area action committees;
mirroring the Public-Private-Producer representation of VCCB,
 PPP Dialogue platform has multiple positive spill over effects: bottom up-
feedback loops, community of practice, informed research, learning agenda, &
public spending choices
 Major policy change possible : through joint voices of 3 private-public-producers,
plus credibility through field results
 Government is a vital part of the solution: GoV played key role in convening
sector/VCCB. Learning to work with Private sector companies
