In May, 2019, the Kampong Thom Provincial Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (KT-PDAFF) assisted some CF members in improving cassava production by using a hybrid seedling or a climate resilient cassava species. Three households from O’s Krahak, Prey Tratey and Kbal Dauntey CF groups were given a total of 3 hectares of cassava demo farm. By the harvesting season next year, the seedlings produced by these three households will be shared to other 70 households in the community. It is targeted that all households in the CF groups will eventually have the same chance in receiving the climate-resilient cassava species as the process is going to be cycled. At the same time, the KT-PDAFF provided the CF members with organic fertilizers to help increase their cassava production.
