Vol. 054: Tai, Do Anh: Family Resources and their Impact on Living Standard and Food Security of Farmers in the Mountainous Farming Systems in Northwest Vietnam


Socio-economic development in the rural mountainous area of Northern Vietnam depends to a high degree on the use and exploitation of the natural resources. However, the population pressure is leading to an increasing demand on these resources and this in turn shows some kind of overuse and misuse of the natural resources. This again has a strong impact on the living standard and food security of the farmers in the region as well as has an implication on the sustainable development of the economy of the region and country. This book attempts to assess the socio-economic situation of families in the relevant to family resources especially natural resources and the living standard and food security of different settlement in three different altitude locations. These locations coincide with different ethnic groups and different level of remoteness, from urban centers. The study assessed the impact of future strategies concerning resources availability, use and management on the living standard and food security of farming families in the mountainous areas.
