Effect of agricultural certification on smallholder coffee producers in Vietnam - Dataset

Abstract

The dataset primarily originates from comprehensive household surveys conducted in two distinct communes within the Central Highland region of Vietnam. A total of 219 households were surveyed, stratified into two main categories: 92 households with certification and 127 without. To enrich the dataset and provide a more holistic understanding, we integrated insights from 20 key informant interviews (KII) representing diverse backgrounds. Additionally, we facilitated ten focus group discussions (FGD), aiming to capture community-level perspectives and insights. The dataset is systematically organized into two excel sheets: 1. Meta-data: Captures overarching details and descriptors of the collected information. 2. Data: The core dataset, further processed and analyzed using the R programming language. Supplementary qualitative data from the KII and FGD sessions are consolidated into two separate word documents. This multifaceted approach ensures a robust and comprehensive dataset, supporting our research's intent and findings.
