Soaring exports: Cambodian rice benefits from global security and food woes

PHNOM PENH (Phnom Penh Post/ANN): Cambodian Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisherie has announced that Cambodia has the capacity to produce rice to meet international demand, not only for local consumption.

The reason for this positive growth is because Cambodia has been improving its rice sector through research and introducing new rice varieties which are resilient to climate change, said the ministry's spokeswoman Im Rachna.
