Promoting Sustainable Agriculture in Samroung Commune, Prey Chhor District, Kampong Cham Province through Network of RCE Greater Phnom Penh Saruom RAN Cambodia Branch, Institute of Environment Rehabilitation and Conservation, Phnom Penh, Cambodia Email: [email protected] Kanako KOBAYASHI Extension Center, Institute of Environment Rehabilitation and Conservation, Tokyo, Japan Lalita SIRIWATTANANON Rajamangala University of Technology Thanyaburi, Pathum Thani, Thailand / Southeast Asia Office, Institute of Environment Rehabilitation and Conservation, Pathum Thani, Thailand Machito MIHARA Institute of Environment Rehabilitation and Conservation, Tokyo, Japan / Faculty of Regional Environment Science, Tokyo University of Agriculture, Tokyo, Japan Bunthan NGO Royal University of Agriculture, Phnom Penh, Cambodia / Institute of Environment Rehabilitation and Conservation, Tokyo, Japan Abstract: Agriculture is one of the important sectors in Cambodia, as more than 70 percent of populations are engaging in the agricultural sector. Phnom Penh is the capital of Cambodia having more than 1.3 million people. RCE Greater Phnom Penh (RCE GPP) was established in December 2009 to promote ESD in Cambodia. RCE Greater Phnom Penh covers not only Phnom Penh but also surrounding provinces, such as Kampong Cham, Kampong Chhnang, Kampong Speu, Kandal, Prey Veng and Takeo. Recently, in Kampong Cham province of Cambodia, subsistence agriculture tends to be converted to mono-culture. Also, more that 60 percent of farmers have been applying agricultural chemicals without understanding the impact on health and food safety. It is necessary to promote and enhance the understanding of sustainable agriculture among local people including farmers and elementary school students, as the students are the successors of local farmers. So, attention has been paid to Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) in the agricultural sector for achieving food safety, conserving environment and reducing expense for agricultural chemicals in Kampong Cham province. -

These fishes attain a maximum body weight of 30 kg. Global population declines highlight the need for more information ≥ about megafishes’ conservation status to inform management and conservation. The northern Cambodian Mekong River and its major tributaries are considered one of the last refugia for Mekong megafishes. We collected data on population abundance and body size trends for eight megafishes in this region to better understand their conservation statuses. Data were collected in June 2018 using a local ecological knowledge survey of 96 fishers in 12 villages. Fishers reported that, over 20 years, most megafishes changed from common to uncommon, rare, or locally extirpated. The most common and rarest species had mean last capture dates of 4.5 and 95 months before the survey, respectively. All species had declined greatly in body size. -

Economic and Financial Analysis for Rural Road Subproject in Kampong Cham Province
Additional Financing of Tonle Sap Poverty Reduction and Smallholder Development Project (RRP CAM 41435-054) ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL ANALYSIS FOR RURAL ROAD SUBPROJECT IN KAMPONG CHAM PROVINCE A. INTRODUCTION 1. This economic and financial analysis (EFA) assess the economic viability of a representative inter-commune road rehabilitation and agricultural development subproject under the Tonle Sap Poverty Reduction and Smallholder Development – Additional Financing (TSSD- AF) Project. The EFA consists of two main components. Firstly, the financial analysis is to validate the financial attractiveness of the subproject to the beneficiary households, the subproject’s primary stakeholders. Only when these activities are financially attractive can the subproject’s envisioned benefits be realized and sustained. Additional consideration is given to the extent of operation and maintenance (O&M) required for the continuous functioning of the road. Finally, the economic analysis is to validate if the subproject’s benefits, measured in economic terms, sufficiently outweigh its economic costs. The result of the economic and financial analysis is summarized by the internal rates of return or the net present value (NPV) metrics. 2. The EFA is based on assessment of the difference in the without- and with-project scenarios. Data were collected by PPTA consultant from interviews with informant farmers in March-April 2017.1 Following the assessment of these two scenarios in financial terms, economic costs and benefits were derived by applying standard conversion methodologies. Sensitivity tests were conducted to test the robustness of the analysis results. B. MACROECONOMIC CONTEXT 3. Following the global economic downturn in 2008-2009, Cambodian economy has recovered quickly thanks to growth in the agricultural sector between 2009 and 2011. -
