Cambodia Rice: Japan Offers Support for Farmers in three Tonle Sap provinces

The Japan International Cooperation Agency pledged US$4.4 million on yesterday to help improve the productivity and income of farmers in areas along the Tonle Sap lake in Battambang, Pursat and Kampong Chhnang provinces.

Yasujiro Suzuki, chief representative of JICA Cambodia, said at signing ceremony that the JICA-sponsored project would help the Cambodian government reach its goal of boosting rice exports to 1 million tonnes by 2015.

San Vanty, undersecretary of state at the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, said that the project – which will focus on agriculture production techniques, seed quality and irrigation – would target 30 communes in Battambang province, four in Pursat and two in Kampong Chhnang.

“In the near future, agricultural productivity and income of farmers in the target areas will be improved through collaboration and implementation of this project,” he said. The project is to commence in September and last for four and a half years.



Cheam Chan Sophorn, director of the Battambang provincial agriculture department, said he hoped that by the end of the JICA project, the province would be able to “double or triple the amount of rice for export to regional and international markets”.



Meanwhile, farmers living in the three target provinces said yesterday that they were concerned about this year’s ongoing drought.

“I am concerned about not having enough water to supply to my rice seedlings this year ... because of drought and a lack of irrigation systems,” said Kuch Veng, a farmer from Krakor district in Pursat province.

Tan Soksan, a farmer in Kampong Chhnang’s Rolea Phear district, agreed that it had been difficult to grow rice this year due to water shortages.

“I and other farmers in my village have serious concerns about the lack of rains,” he said, and some rice crops had died due to lack of water.

Lay Pisith, deputy director of the Pursat provincial agriculture department, said that officials in Krakor and Bakan districts have been forced to manually pump water into their ricefields in order to counter the effects of the drought.

Ngan Nany, director of the agriculture department in Kampong Chhnang province, said yesterday that recent rains had helped to improve the situation. “We hope that the rice seedlings of our farmers will not have any more problems,” he said. Source: MAFF

Cambodia Rice: Japanese Organic Fertilizer

Cambodia Rice: Japanese Organic Fertilizer

The fertilizer was made in Japan by developing under the complicated process effectively used the un-used natural resources of the animals and plants products.

These material have been gone through the complicated processing plants to produce high quality organic fertilizer
There are the residue of fish processing, food processing, and meat processing plants, the residue from animals and plants after carefully selected the good part.
And the blood meal and dried fish powder residue, and the properties of meat and bone meal organic ingredients.

These are blended to produce fertilizer for crops.

Although the density of nutrients in organic material is comparatively modest, they have many advantages.
The majority of nitrogen supplying organic fertilizers contain insoluble nitrogen and act as a slow-release fertilizer. By their nature, organic fertilizers increase physical and biological nutrient storage mechanisms in soils, mitigating risks of over-fertilization. Organic fertilizer nutrient content, solubility, and nutrient release rates are typically much lower than mineral (inorganic) fertilizers.
Organic fertilizers also re-emphasize the role of humus and other organic components of soil, which are believed to play several important roles:

• Mobilizing existing soil nutrients, so that good growth is achieved with lower nutrient densities while wasting less.
• Releasing nutrients at a slower, more consistent rate, helping to avoid a boom-and-bust pattern
• Helping to retain soil moisture, reducing the stress due to temporary moisture stress
• Improving the soil structure
• Helping to prevent topsoil erosion (responsible for desertfication and the Dust bowl.
• The necessity of reapplying artificial fertilizers regularly (and perhaps in increasing quantities) to maintain fertility.

• Extensive runoff of soluble nitrogen and phosphorus.
• Costs are lower for if fertilizer is locally available.

Signatures of Asia has been imported Fertilizer from Japan since 2006 to Cambodia market, It is a proven that this Japanese Organic Fertilizer is fruitfully benefit to farmer in term of economically and environmental friendly.

The fertilizer contain of :
N - 0.03%
P - 22 %
K - 20%
Ca -28.5%
Mgs- 7.19%
Other element neccessary for the plants.

Our fertilizer have been registered with Cambodian Ministry of Agriculture, Japanese Ministry of Agrilcuture and well recognized by the farmer in nationwide from vietnam border to thailand broder.

Our vision is to bring more natural to the Earth and more healthier to the people by promoting this fertilizer practise to replace the chemical fertilizer and insecticide. That is the logical reason that we select The Earth as our brand-name.


You can join a talk show program of Japanese Organic Fertilizer broadcasting from 1:00PM to 2:00PM on Cambodia National Radio FM 96.0MHz everyday from Monday to Saturday...

Below is a record of the talk show program that broadcasted on 23 August 2011...
