TAILIEUCHUNG - Rice development in the context of climate change in Vietnam

Rice is the most important crop of Vietnam with a harvested area of 7,835 ha, production of million tons of paddies, and export volume of 6,997 thousand tons of milled rice for an export value of USD 2,852 million in 2015. However, if purely considering its economic aspects, rice contributes only of national GDP1 and rice farmer’s net income is only USD 419/ha compared to USD 1,128/ha earnings of Thailand farmers. Moreover, it is projected that up to of the Red River Delta and of the Mekong River Delta will be submerged after sea level rises by 100 cm. If this happens, a reduction in rice production would be more than 30-35%, based on the 2016 climate change scenarios. Therefore, it is necessary to thoughtfully consider rice production and rice export through different perspectives including economic, societal and environmental with a focus on ensuring food security and social stability. | LIFE SCIENCES AGRICULTURE Rice development in the context of climate change in Vietnam Van Bo Nguyen Vietnam Academy of Agriculture Sciences Received 3 November 2016 accepted 9 January 2017 Abstract Rice is the most important crop of Vietnam with a harvested area of 7 835 ha production of million tons of paddies and export volume of 6 997 thousand tons of milled rice for an export value of USD 2 852 million in 2015.

Keywords climate change rice development rice production. Classification number Main challenges in rice production Rice production is facing many challenges including climate change population pressure production efficiency free market access diminishing rice cultivation areas and a low investment in agriculture however within the framework of this article we only address the two most significant challenges climate change and sea level rise and low efficiency in rice production. 1With rice annual production of million tons export price of 353 USD ton source FAO Rice Market Monitor 2016 for rice with 5 broken total rice value is only USD billion compared with USD 204 billion of national GDP according to Vietnam Development Partner Forum VDPF on the 5lh December 2015 in Hanoi.
