Impact of COVID-19 on smallholder farmers in Laos
Currently, vegetable farmers in Laos are not able to sell their produce because of the COVID-19 pandemic. While markets remail open, many vendors chose to close their shops and many people are also afraid to go out.
Laos farmers appeal to their Laos government to help them by purchasing their vegetables and distribute these for free to the people affected by COVID-19. The government can also extend assistance by helping the farmers build cooling facilities where they can store their vegetables so they don’t go to waste.
