Description This report summarizes findings from the project “Agroecological transitions for building
resilient and inclusive agricultural and food systems (TRANSITIONS)” which is funded by the
European Commission through its Development of Smart Innovation through Research in
Agriculture (DeSIRA) initiative and managed by the International Fund for Agricultural
Development (IFAD). The Digital Tools regional work in Vietnam focused on research and
engagement with digital tools for technical advice and performance assessment in sustainable
rice production in the Mekong River Delta due to the high climate change impacts, climate
change mitigation potentials and sustainability challenges.
This report focused on the learnings from the field testing of 2 digital tools designed for the rice
value chain. Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) were held in September 2022 in Can Tho province
in the Mekong Delta with 24 farmers and extension agents. In March 2023 FGDs were held with
5 extension agents and 20 farmers working with Sustainable Rice Platform (SRP) practices in the
Dong Thap province of the Mekong Delta.
