CPSA, 11 February 2022
On June 8, 2020, the Ministry of Commerce (MOC), chaired by HE Chan Rashi, facilitated a meeting to review and provide inputs on the draft report for the Cambodia Cashew Policy. In total, the workshop gathered 21 participants from MOC, national and international NGOs, and private cashew processing companies.
Following the presentation of Jim Fitzpatrick, an expert in agriculture research and policy analysis, the participants have discussed and provided further details on the recommendations for drafting the policy.
As a result of this meeting, a draft policy on cashew nuts will be developed by June 29, 2020.
Fun fact: can you guess how many tons of cashew nuts were produced in Cambodia in 2018?
