Cattle farmers benefit from project participation: Case Study
Farmers in Phaksi village in Luang Prabang provincial capital are now able to earn more from paddy rice production and the cultivation of fodder for their cattle, thanks to a project to improve biodiversity and the marketing of cattle.
Funded by the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR) and run jointly with the University of Sydney and the Lao Department of Livestock and Fisheries, the project also aimed to prevent disease among cattle so farmers had more animals to sell.
