    • Choice of climate risk adaptive measures in shrimp farming—A case study from the Mekong, Vietnam 

      Le, Thi Thanh Ngan; Armstrong, Claire W. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-11-06)
      Extreme climate events challenge the livelihoods of shrimp farmers worldwide. A comprehensive analysis of farmers’ choices of adaptive measures is essential for developing approaches that can lessen the effects of these climate risks. This study presents the determinants that influence the choice of adaptive measures in response to two climate risks, drought, and irregular weather, using a survey ...
    • Determinants of inefficiency in shrimp aquaculture under environmental impacts: Comparing shrimp production systems in the Mekong, Vietnam 

      Le, Thi Thanh Ngan; Brækkan, Eivind Hestvik; Armstrong, Claire W.; Eide, Arne (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-26)
      Shrimp aquaculture systems vary from primitive (extensive/ improved extensive) to more industrialized (intensive/semiintensive) farms, and the impacts of environmental shocks may differ between them. This article applies the Cobb– Douglas stochastic production frontier function to evaluate the determinants that impact the inefficiency of these intensive and extensive systems in Vietnam. Data ...
