Lao Farmer Network (LFN) is a national farmer organization involving 58 farmer organizations from 13 provinces with over 4,000 individual farmers. The network has been established since 2014 with a vision for a rich and sustainable future for farming families in Laos. The mission of LFN is to create solidarity among Lao farmers and provide services to members that enable them to manage natural resources in an environmentally friendly manner; produce quality products that meet market demands; achieve fair and sustainable returns for their work and improve the well-being of all members of farming families.
Based on a recent independent review in 2020, the greatest strengths and achievements of the network have been participating in national-level policy dialogues, ability to network with other organizations, responsiveness to FO needs via training, the inclusion of women and youth, and improved FO-market linkages for selected groups and products. At the same time, the weaknesses and shortcomings of the network include a centralized structure, led by the Secretariat, lack of a clear strategy for expansion, and a ‘mixed picture’ of results from economic activities.
