| Fish demand patterns in nine Asian countries were investigated using a multistage budgeting framework allowing a disaggregated approach to analysing fish consumption. This paper highlights the heterogeneity of fisheries products in terms of species, sources and cultural responses of consumers, factors that are important in fish demand under the Asian setting. Specifically, fish demand by income groups were compared to determine how the low- and high-income households respond to price and income changes. Results showed that the estimated price and income elasticities of all fish types included in the study were relatively more elastic among the poorer households. |

| Upland areas in Vietnam account for two-thirds of its natural area and one-third of its population. These uplands are characterized by heterogeneous and fragile ecosystems, a high incidence of poverty, severe deforestation and soil degradation. Rice is an important staple which is grown in the upland fields using shifting cultivation and in intensive lowland fields. The predominantly subsistence-oriented agricultural production system of these upland areas is undergoing intensification due to rapidly increasing population pressure. Changes in government policies regarding uplands and improvements in access to markets have led to the evolution of market-oriented production systems in some areas. In addition, rapid improvement in the productivity of... |
