Vietpigs is a project that aims to transform the pig value chain in Vietnam. It has identified several provinces for further study and analysis. Rapid assessments of food safety and animal health have been completed, with more in-depth surveys planned. The project also aims to study indigenous pig breeds. The overall vision is for a thriving, inclusive, and sustainable pig sector in Vietnam. Pigs are an important source of meat and protein in Vietnam, and the sector provides many jobs and economic opportunities, especially for smallholders and women. However, intensification also poses environmental risks that need addressing. The project will work to improve productivity while ensuring sustainability. It will collaborate with other research initiatives working in similar areas in Vietnam.
