Abstract

The main objective of this research are to identify vulnerabilities within the mango value chain in Vietnam, allocate costs, revenues, and net profits among the different stakeholders in the marketing channel, and recommend strategies to sustain the long-term viability of the mango sector in the region. This research used a value chain analysis to assess the overall economic efficiency of the value chain associated with Vietnamese mango production. The total of 2,046 sample observations was supplied by various stakeholders in the mango value chain, including farmers, cooperatives, collectors, wholesalers, local retailers, export enterprises, processing firms, and fruit stores. The aggregate economic performance within the Vietnamese mango value chain is estimated at $3.36 billion, accompanied by a net profit of $270.4 million. The export channels, namely channels 1, 2, and 3, provide a total sales revenue of $2.27 billion and produce a net profit of to $185 million. The revenue generated via domestic channels, namely channels 4 and 5 of marketing, amounts to $1.09 billion with a net income of $85.4 million. The results of the study emphasize that farmers are the most susceptible participants in the supply chain with regards to the production of low-quality and small-scale mangoes. This research proposes three policy recommendations, including benefit redistribution, technology progress, and quality improvement. The outcomes of this research provide support to the possible use of the value chain approach in policymaking, and they enhance our comprehension of the value chain analysis process for various tropical fruits and vegetables.
