Organic farmers in Vientiane expect to double their income during the SEA Games in December.

Farmers in Khoksai village, Hadxaifong district, are top suppliers to local markets, and are expecting to boost production to respond to increasing demand during the games.

Mr Ounkaeng Phommasaen, head of the group, told Vientiane Times on Tuesday that he hoped to generate 60 million kip this year from selling his crops.

He made only 48-50 million kip last year.

“My outlay is not too much, it is only 500,000-600,000 kip per year since I started in 2004,” Mr Ounkaeng said.
