This publication is part of a three-volume diagnostic study on lessons learned and implications for agriculture and food security in the context of rapid growth in selected Asian economies. This third volume presents the country studies for the Republic of Korea, Thailand and Viet Nam. It discusses experiences in agricultural development and economic growth. The country studies provide useful lessons and insights on agricultural restructuring in response to changing market and trade opportunities. These are expected to be of interest to relevant governments, policy professionals and development practitioners in crafting national policies and strategies for rapid and sustained agricultural growth to achieve the Millennium Development Goals of poverty and hunger eradication.
