| Title: | Vietnam – Project for Adaption to Climate Change in the Mekong Delta in Ben Tre and Tra Vinh Provinces (AMD) – April 2023 |
| Description: |
River mud clams, also known simply as river clams, are shaped like an ordinary clam but are three times larger and have a black-brown colour. The start-up investment requires only breeding stock, with a stocking density of 40-100 claims per square meter, fence nets and labour. The clams feed on organic matter naturally found in the mudflats thanks to a strong up-and-down tidal current. The Project for Adaptation to Climate Change in the Mekong Delta in the Ben Tre and Tra Vinh Provinces (AMD) strengthened the resilience and adaptive capacity of 54,000 smallholder farmer households by generating sustainable income opportunities and improved rural livelihoods, reaching an estimated 210,000 people. To this end, AMD invests in climate resilient, inclusive, and remunerative value chain opportunities, including coconut, fruits, and aquaculture. |
