AB - In response to climatic shocks and socio-economic changes, livelihood transitions have been undertaken across different agro-ecological regions of Vietnam’s Mekong Delta. This article compares the transitional process in two areas with distinct external and intrinsic variables to examine how ecological and social forces affect farmers’ livelihood strategies. Perceptions and attitudes of 307 households in Hau Giang were investigated against five aspects of vulnerability using factor analysis. Together with comparative analysis, regression models were used to determine factors driving livelihood transitions. The study found that drivers of transitions varied depending on specific contexts in which land use, financial capital, and labor advantages play the leading role. Urbanization impacts had a significant effect, but other aspects of market risks, institutional regulations, and cooperative networks were relatively important. Transitional policies that align with household interests, such as financial subsidies, cooperative incentives, and supportive entrepreneurs, will ensure that local farmers can embark upon sustainable livelihood pathways.
