Sunflower seed accounts for about 14% of the world production of seed oils (6.9 million metric tons in 1985-86) and about 7% of the oilcake and meal produced from oilseeds. Sunflower oil is generally considered a premium oil because of its light color, high level of unsaturated fatty acids and lack of linolenic acid, bland flavor and high smoke points.

  • A young Laoseng ethnic minority girl prepares river weed collected from the Nam Ou river, Ban Moungava, Phongsaly province, Lao PDR.

Nature’s bounty in providing for the Lao may be plentiful, but this does not mean that the task of growing and finding enough food for family subsistence and maintenance is easy.

  • A young Tai Lue boy goes fishing in the Nam Lan river, Ban Nawai, Phongsaly province, Lao PDR. He wears a bamboo basket for keeping the small fish he catches and a diving mask over his eyes. For families living away from the main roads and markets, food caught or collected from the wild, especially edible plants and small animals still make up fifty per cent of their diet.  Nature’s bounty in providing for the Lao may be plentiful, but this does not mean that the task of growing and finding enough food for family subsistence and maintenance is easy. It is a major preoccupation of rural families and takes the bulk of time and energy of every man, woman and child.
