The amount of money earned from cultivating vegetables in Kenya, growing peppers in India, producing timber products and farming Pangasius in Vietnam is the common denominator in the session of value chains. Similarly, wealth in Bangladesh determines a person’s willingness to purchase an insurance. Women managing vegetable plots Beatrice Muriiti found out that women are less likely to control income from profitable vegetable enterprises destined for export. To overcome this constraint, female training on vegetable production and marketing, extension contact and membership to farmer groups positively contributes to women management of export vegetable plots. Timber production in Vietnam In the calculations of Le Thien Duc, he argued that there is a low profitability in state forest enterprises (SFE) if the government does not promote it. The main reason was primarily the logging quota and limitation of customers for timber sale. One of the recommendations to cope with the low profitability is the removal of harvesting quota. Pepper Production in India The result of the welfare impact study conducted by Priyanka Parvarthi in India concludes that organic pepper improves the income capacity of farmers. However, this technology is not necessarily for poor farmers with very less land holdings located in remote areas. Priyanka Parvarthi Pangasius Industry in Vietnam In the farm surveys conducted by Neda Trifković to estimate the impact of vertical coordination, she revealed that Pangasius producers under contract arrangements with processors are far better off than the average Vietnamese rural households. Although a controversial sector, it still has the potential to offer employment to landless workers but it needs to take into account the environmental sustainability of production. Microinsurance decisions in rural Bangladesh Field experiments using play insurance purchase games were employed by Neha Kumar to understand the probability of buying any insurance. The study shows that there is no significant difference between men and women but men buy a larger number of units as compared to women. Looking at gender perspective, woman's wealth was an important determinant of the number of insurance purchase.
