Mr. Hun Sen said that annual rice productions of the 2008-2009 financial year will reach 7 million tonnes. He said that in the next few years, exports will increase to 3-4 tonnes annually. Mr. Hun Sen said that the building of the irrigation systems and the education of farmers are essential in the strengthening of rice exports. He said that Cambodia has the capability to compete. He added that the government will urge the Cambodian farmers to grow more rice because he said that, currently, Vietnam and Thailand each exported about 10 million tonnes of rice annually.
Mr. Chan Sarun, Cambodia's Minister of Agriculture, said on Sunday that by the year 2015 Cambodia will be able to export 8 million tonnes of rice annually.
