Agriculture in Cambodia


Cambodia locates in South-east Asia, and it is in tropical area. Cambodia consists of a basin-shaped low land area enclosed by mountain ranges. Cambodia also has rivers and lakes. This geographic feature is very good for agriculture.

The majority of Cambodian people are farmers who transplant rice in low land area. In the lowest land which is under water in the raining season near the rivers or lakes, the farmers can transplant their rice tor two times or three times by using short-time rice seeds.

On the banks of the rivers, the farmers do not plant rice. But they plant vegetables, com, tobacco, and fruit trees. The farmers can earn a lot of money. For the farmers in the high land and mountain area, a small number of them plant rice, but the majority of them prefer to plant beans and soy beans.

In my conclusion, I think that our farmers try hard to work on their farms, but the yields are enough for people in the country, and not enough to export, so the government must pay attention on Agriculture.
