摘要

A research project on periurban vegetable production and marketing systems funded by the INCO- DC program of the European Union is currently conducted in three Southeast Asian cities which represent different levels of urbanization: Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam), Cagayan de Oro (Philippines) and Vientiane (Laos). The study is jointly carried out by research institutes from Germany, France, Vietnam, the Philippines and Laos, as well as by a small-sized Philippine seed company.
