- Laichau ginseng, Panax vietnamensis var. fuscidiscus, has been contributing to poverty reduction for ethnic communities in Vietnam. Therefore, identifying suitable planting areas becomes important for sustainable development. Four main conditions were selected for mapping, including elevation above sea level, air temperature, precipitation, and vegetation types. It was then classified to three levels of suitable, less-suitable, and not-suitable. Four corresponding digital maps were used to overlap and met areas were generated. The results indicated that total suitable area for planting Laichau ginseng was 17,339.3 ha, accounting for 1.9 % total provincial land area, and the total less-suitable area was 22,438.1 ha, accounting for 2.5 %. It is concluded that Laichau ginseng should be only planted in suitable areas. In other areas, trials must be conducted for further recommendations.
