Cambodia to earn $50 mln a year from cassava exports to China

PHNOM PENH, 28 February 2013 (The Cambodia Herald) --  Cambodia will earn about $50 million a year from exports of dried cassava to China through Sihanoukville Autonomous Port, Deputy Prime Minister Yim Chhay Ly said Thursday.

Yim Chhay Ly, also chairman of the Council for Agricultural and Rural Development (CARD), said Cambodia's agricultural exports previously went through Vietnam and Thailand, amounting to between 7,000 and 8,000 tons a year.

Lo Kim Chhun, chairman of General Department of Sihanoukville Autonomous Port, said a kilogram of cassava fetched between 25 and 30 riel more on the world market.

The exports to China are being carried out by Avic International Co and the Cambodian government.
