The agriculture sector in Lao PDR is under going rapid transformation from subsistence to commercialization. This is in line with the 6th Five Year Plan of the Government of Lao PDR which emphasizes the commercialization of agriculture. In order to assist with this, planners at various levels will need better tools to recognize re-search and development issues and opportunities within different agro-ecosystems. This handbook has been produced for ex-tension, research and development staff working in district level agencies or projects, particularly district administrators, planners and agriculture extension staff.
