Commercial agriculture, women and food insecurity in Cambodia | YouTube inside
Cambodian farmers, particularly women, have undergone over the past decades. Cambodia's history of political instability and economic turmoil, including the Khmer Rouge regime, has heavily impacted its agriculture. After the fall of the regime, farmers worked to rebuild a damaged industry. More recently, the shift to commercial agriculture has led to the adoption of modern farming practices. However, this has often resulted in small farmers falling into debt, impacting their incomes and food security. The transformation of agricultural policies and the government's push for commercialized farming has intensified farmers' economic vulnerability.
