Agriculture sector development is key to diversifying the economy, reducing the reliance on vegetable imports, alleviating poverty, and improving nutrition in the country’s large rural population. The Asian Development Bank prepared this publication, which analyzes the market and value chain for vegetables. It also presents several aspects of climate-resilient smallholder production and market access to promote self-sufficiency and generate more income for vegetable growers. In line with the government’s focus on accelerating economic diversification and job creation, this publication is aimed to aid in informing donor support for Mongolia’s agricultural diversification agenda.
