Soybean Value Chains for Rural Development in Burma

VCRD’s strategy in the soy value chain is to facilitate inclusive, market-systems led growth of an industry that meets the quantity and quality requirements of the domestic food-based end-market for soybeans. The project engages with the soy food processing sector, collaborating with major processors in Yangon and Mandalay to upgrade capacity, technology and food safety standards to meet local market demands, produce safe products, and meet important international standards that open new domestic markets and increase purchases from smallholder producers.
