Comparative and competitive advantage of the shrimp industry in Mekong river delta, Vietnam

This study aims to measure the comparative advantages of alternative crops of rice, coconut, and pomelo as the key indicators for crop cultivation choices by using DRC, SCB, and other competitiveness indicators in PAM model with sensitivity analysis. The results indicate that pomelo fruit obtains th...

Coconut crop is the most stable while rice is the most sensitive to climate and market changes.
