Abstract

The result shows that the area for safe vegetable (SV) production in large scale has not developed in Can Tho city (CC). In addition, link between SV producers and distributors has not been really well. The SV producers’ technical efficiency from the studied area has obtained absolutely (100%). However, due to inappropriate use of factor inputs, the economic and allocative efficiency reached a level of 75%. From the result of analysis documents we conclude that production efficiency is effected greatly by a range of factors such as experience of SV production, number of times being trained in productive technology in year, diversification in farming styles, plot size for production and market information (MI). To develop an SV supply for CC, expansion of market and MI for planters are considered as main solutions.
