During 2018, MRD led a sector review in order to measure progress of the NAP1 and the associated Provincial Action Plans (PAP) for RWSSH in each province. During this review, each province gathered and submitted information related to the PAP output indicators. As part of the PAP review in Kampong Chhnang Province, MRD and the Provincial Department of Rural Development (PDRD) have collaborated with the National Institute of Statistics (NIS), Provincial Department of Planning (PDP), District Administrations and WaterAid to undertake a province-wide survey of the household RWSSH access. The survey utilizes the same methodology employed in the Cambodian Socio-Economic Survey (CSES) which is the reference document for the NAP baseline. These results provide a snapshot of the RWSSH coverage across the province which can be compared with the PAP baseline in order to measure progress during the PAP 1 period. The survey outlined in this report also included sanitation indicators aligned with the Cambodian Sustainable Development Goals (CSDGs) which generated useful province- wide sanitation data which MRD and sector actors can utilize to inform planning as we work together towards the Cambodian Sustainable Development Goal of universal safely-managed sanitation services. We would like to express our profound thanks to the NIS, PDRD, MRD, District administrations, the Provincial Department of Planning, and relevant partners in this field who have helped to collaborate, collect data and compile a report for this survey.

The objective of this study was to examine the general situation of Cambodian agriculture by comparing with neighboring countries in Southeast Asia from a period of 22 years (1996 – 2018) through cultivate areas, technical using, technologies using, fertilizer using, agricultural infrastructure system, agricultural production cost, agricultural output, agricultural market and climate change. The results show that the Cambodian agriculture sector is still at a level where there is significant need to improve the capacity of farmers, the new technologies use and the prevention of climate change. However, the production cost is still high cost and agricultural output has been in low prices. It also causes for farmers to lose confidence in farming and they will be stop working in the sector. Moreover, we also have other policies to improve agriculture sector in Cambodia. JEL classifications : F13, O13, Q13, Q16, Q18. Keywords: Agricultural Development, Agricultural Policy, Agricultural Technology, Intensive Farming, Farmer Education. * For their useful comments and suggestions, we thanks Dr. Saing Chanhang, Paul Angles, Dr. Sam Vicheat, Phay Thonnimith and the participants at the 5th Annual NBC Macroeconomics Conference: Broadening Sources of Cambodia’s Growth.

  • Poverty and Socioeconomic Condition
    Uplands Irrigation and Water Resources Management Sector Project (RRP CAM 44328) POVERTY AND SOCIOECONOMIC CONDITION A. Introduction 1. This report presents the socioeconomic and poverty situation in the project areas of the Uplands Irrigation and Water Resources Management Sector Project in Cambodia. The project areas are located in the provinces of Battambang and Kampong Thom. The proposed project is planned to enhance agricultural and rural economic productivity through increased efficiency of irrigation systems and improved management of water resources. It will be implemented in two irrigation schemes, namely, Prek Chik Irrigation Scheme located in Battambang Province and Taing Krasaing Irrigation Scheme located in Kampong Thom Province. The social and poverty assessment of the project examines the socioeconomic conditions in the project areas and identifies the population that will be impacted. It identifies the existing irrigation and agriculture situation in relation to poverty condition of the existing population within the proposed irrigation schemes. It presents the poverty situation in terms of the poverty rate and identifies the vulnerable population which may be impacted by the project. B. Development Scenario and Socioeconomic Development Policies and Plans 2. Over the last decade, Cambodia has been experiencing economic development with a growth rate of 10.2% for the period of 2004–2008. Though the gross domestic product (GDP) decreased to 0.1 in 2009, it recovered in 2010 and 2011 with a growth rate of 6.0%. Agriculture, fisheries and forestry have shown tremendous growth in 2005 with 15.7% compared to other sectors such as industry with 12.7% and services with 13.1%.
