  • Sweetener Buying Guide
    Sweetener Buying Guide The intent of this guide is purely informational. The summaries included represent the highlights of each sweetener and are not meant to be comprehensive. The traffic light system is not a dietary recommendation but a buying guideline. Sugar, in any form (even honey, maple syrup and dried fruit), can suppress the immune system and throw our bodies out of balance. It is important to consume sugar smartly. Start by choosing the best sweeteners for you. Then keep in mind that sugar is best reduced or avoided when your immune system is compromised e.g. - if you have candida overgrowth, are chronically stressed, fatigued or in pain, are diabetic or pre-diabetic, have digestive issues (IBS, Crohn’s etc.), etc...

  • Improving the Cambodian Palm Sugar Industry
    The Cambodian Palm Sugar Value Chain Men Australasian Agribusiness Perspectives 2019, Volume 22, Paper 12 ISSN: 2209-6612 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Improving the Cambodian Palm Sugar Industry Rithysen Men Postgraduate student, Centre for Global Food and Resources, University of Adelaide -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Abstract The Cambodian people have engaged in palm sugar production since ancient times and it has become a tradition of the Khmer people. Palm sugar has been considered more a commercial commodity over the past 10 years which has led to the use of innovative technology and product marketing strategies. Palm sugar has emerged as a new product that attracts many investors and exporters. In 2015 some 25 per cent (34.9 metric tons) of all types of palm sugar were sold locally, while 75 per cent (103 metric tons) was exported. A value chain analysis is undertaken and finds that, despite making progress, the chain has encountered some challenges such as limited capital investment by producers, lack of technical skills to produce good quality products, high labour intensity and the dangers associated with climbing trees. There are some suggestions proposed for improvement to support the performance of the chain. The suggestions include improving production techniques of producers, making contracts between producer associations and exporters, taking advantage of its existing Geographical Indication status and continuing research and development of the palm sugar sector. Key words: palm sugar, value chain analysis, geographical indication, contract farming Introduction Around 80 per cent of the Cambodian population live in rural areas and most of them depend on agricultural activities for their daily livelihood (MAFF, 2013). The agricultural sector contributed 25.3 per cent of GDP in 2017 (Index Mundi, 2017).

  • The Sugar Palm Tree As the Basis of Integrated Farming Systems in Cambodia
    Livestock Feed Resources within Integrated Farming Systems 83 The Sugar Palm Tree As the Basis of Integrated Farming Systems in Cambodia Khieu Borin Department of Animal Health and Production, Ministry of Agriculture Forestry and Fisheries, Cambodia Abstract The sugar palm tree (Borassus flabellifer) plays an important role in the small integrated farming systems in Cambodia. The sugar palm is considered to be a multi-purpose tree and provides different products such as juice, sugar, leaves, timber, fruits, underground seedlings and roots. The juice from the sugar palm is rich in highly digestible carbohydrate (sugars) which is an alternative energy source for animal feeding in the rural areas. The impact of the sugar palm on the farming system is increased when the excreta from the animals is recycled through biodigesters to provide gas for household cooking and effluent to fertilize the pond which can produce fish or water plants, the former for the household and the latter for the livestock. When sugar palm juice is used for pig feeding, rather than the making of sugar, it is better from both the economic and environmental points of view, because sugar production requires large amounts of firewood that makes the cost of production very high. It is even less profitable and extremely harmful to the environment when palm trees are used as fuel in order to produce the sugar. KEY WORDS: Borassus flabellifer, palm juice, palm sugar, fuel, environment, biodigester, sustainable production 84 The Sugar Palm Tree as the Basis of Integrated Farming in Cambodia Introduction In Cambodia, 85 per cent of the total population is dependent on agricultural activities.
