[Asian Pacific Farmers Forum] In Cambodia, the price of rice (paddy) often falls below KHR 1,000 (USD .24), discouraging farmers from producing rice for commercial purposes. To help its rice producing members, the Farmer and Nature Net Association (FNN) reached out to AMRU Rice Company, which was interested in sourcing organic jasmine rice. FNN facilitated a contract farming partnership between AMRU and Svay Chochep Meanchey Agriculture Cooperative, located in Khnach Kantout village, Svay Chochep commune, Bosert District, Kampong Speu province, Cambodia.
