The project aims to improve awareness of food loss and waste and facilitate private sector investment in reducing food loss and waste in the Mekong River Basin's catfish (Pangasius) industry. It approaches to escalate smallhoder farmers’ productivity and output parallel to mitigate post-harvest food loss in enhancing competitive food value chain particularly the Pangasius in Vietnam. The research’s concept is also significant to countries which are still limited in food storage facilities, transportation and post-harvest technology. While many studies have been implemented regarding post-harvest loss, few studies have been conducted in developing countries including Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia.
