“…Vietnam is an agriculture-based developing country and the Vietnamese agricultural systems are in transition from subsistence to market-oriented agriculture. The mountainous region of Vietnam, which accounts for two-thirds of the country's area (GSO, 2019), is expected to have many potential agricultural products for export due to its abundant natural resources and diversity of agricultural cultivation techniques from multiple ethnic groups (Bui and Nguyen, 2021;Nguyen et al, 2022). Many poverty reduction programs such as Programme-135, Programme-30a, Programme-132 and Programme-134 were implemented by the Government of Vietnam to improve income and livelihood for farmers in highlands (Quyen, 2019).…”

PurposeThe paper aimed to examine the determinants of agricultural commercialisation of farmers and measured its commercialisation level in the highland of Vietnam.Design/methodology/approachA sample size of 360 was randomly chosen from a total population of 5,771 farmers, and a structured questionnaire was developed to collect data. Descriptive and inferential statistics, including linear regression analysis, were used to analyse the data.FindingsThe descriptive statistics showed that the average commercialisation level of farmers was 56.3%. The regression model result indicated that number of off-farm income sources, farmer's risk perception, farming practices, number of agricultural activities, motorbikes value, ethnicity, distance from the city centre, number of customers, non-traded inputs value, participation in training programmes, family size, farm size, mobile phones value, traded inputs value, land tenure, distance from the local market and education of household head significantly affected agricultural commercialisation of farmers.Originality/valueAny development strategies that assist farmers in adopting commercial farming in the highland of developing countries should consider these determinants.Peer reviewThe peer review history for this article is available at: https://publons.com/publon/10.1108/IJSE-03-2022-0161
