International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) has an ACIAR-funded project called ‘Asian Chicken Genetic Gains (AsCGG): a platform for exploring, testing and delivering improved chickens for enhanced livelihood outcomes in South East Asia’. The project is implemented in Cambodia, Myanmar, and Vietnam. It aims to test and avail highproducing and farmer-preferred chicken genotypes to increase smallholder chicken production and productivity as a pathway out of poverty in the project countries. The project starts with a comprehensive literature review that aims to understand the current knowledge base, identify research and development gaps, and inform a baseline assessment. Thus, this document provides the literature review findings in Vietnam. The review presents an overview of poultry production and consumption, smallholder chicken production and productivity practices; marketing of poultry products; the contribution of smallholder poultry production to household nutrition; the economic contribution of smallholder poultry production; agricultural policy, and livestock research; and finally a conclusion and research opportunities.
