Why it matters
The coffee sector in Đắk Lắk is a key economic driver, generating nearly US$ 900 million in annual export value. The program addresses challenges like climate change and soil degradation, while also helping the province meet new sustainability requirements from major export markets, such as the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).
