In this study we assess the supply chain for selected vegetables in Cambodia, and the role different actors play in value addition across the chain, as well as bottlenecks of the chain, in particular postharvest loss.
Vegetable production levels and revenues in the CLV region are severely constrained by postharvest losses.
Viet Nam alone suffered a $15 million decline in export revenues of vegetables and fruits during the first quarter of 2004 compared to the same quarter in 2003, which was attributed to inadequate postharvest technologies (Socialist Republic of Vietnam, 2004). Improving the postharvest handling and storage of horticulture crops has become a priority in all three countries (Cambodia, Lao PDR and Viet Nam).
A stakeholder meeting at AVRDC–The World Vegetable Center in 2001 with representatives from the ASEAN region identified postharvest technologies as one of the most needed areas for research and development especially for the hot-wet ecologies (Kuo, 2002).
