The Organic Spice Project (OSP) proposed will help to promote a diversified, ecological and climate-resilient multi-crop production system in Cao Bang Province, Vietnam, in contrast to the high-density monoculture and unsustainable production systems promoted in other parts of the country. 

In cooperation with the German organic tea and spice company Cha Dô Teehandels GmbH and the Vietnamese company DACE, the project aims to pioneer replicable models and a cultivation system that does not pose a threat to the environment but can create buffer zones and corridors to connect biodiversity hotspots.

New crops for the predominant cultivation systems of cinnamon and star anise will be ginger, turmeric, lemongrass, chili and garlic.

Agricultural advice and training based on demonstration plots and field schools for farmers will be expanded into a modern mixed training and advisory system by integrating an interactive app that offers farmers real-time support in the cultivation of even unusual spice crops in the targeted "multi-cropping farming system".

See details in the attached TOR.
