Project Rationale and Linkage to Country/Regional Strategy | Development Context. During the last decade, Cambodia has achieved impressive economic growth with gross domestic products (GDP) averaging 10% per annum during the 2004-2010 period. Despite its declining GDP share from 46% in the 1990s to 34% in 2010, agriculture remains an important sector in the national economy. It is an important source of livelihood for 85% of the population. Paddy production covers 84% of cultivated land and contributes about 38% of agricultural value added or 13% of the national GDP in 2010. Paddy production has been crucial in creating employment and reducing the national poverty rate from 47% in 1993 to 30% in 2010. The Royal Government of Cambodia (RGC) set the annual GDP growth target of 7% and poverty reduction rate of 1% per annum from 2009 onwards. Given its significant share in the national GDP, rice continues to play a crucial role in enhancing macro-economic stability, food security, and poverty reduction. However, to achieve economic growth on a broader and sustainable basis, substantial constraints in rice value chain need to be removed. Key binding constraints in rice commercialization observed include: (i) production is largely traditional and unorganized; (ii) value chains are weak and fragmented; (iii) agro-industry small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) are under-developed; (iv) intra- and inter-sector connectivity is limited particularly with energy, finance and transport constraining production and market access; and (v) domestic marketing standards are low and rice trading with regional and global markets is limited. These constraints are due largely to the lack of an enabling legal and/or regulatory environment for strengthening market linkages, productivity enhancement, organized production, and sustainable access to finance, among others. In terms of natural resources, while Cambodia is endowed with ample land and water resources favorable for paddy and other crop production, use efficiency of these resources is suboptimal due to limited capacity in agricultural land management and underinvestment in increasing total factor productivity. Therefore, it is critical for agricultural land to be managed efficiently and effectively by practicing sound agricultural land use zoning, soil productivity potential mapping, water use/irrigation efficiency management, and environmental and climate change risk/vulnerability mapping and management. Innovative Features. The SDP is among the first initiatives in Southeast Asia that contemplates rice commercialization and simultaneously addresses resilience of its underlying agro-ecological system. As a matter of fact, the evolution and development of a commercial rice value chain will create pressure on natural resources which may cause degradation of the soil, loss of biodiversity or soil and/or water pollution. The SDP's interventions will increase resilience by promoting sound agricultural land use zoning, soil productivity potential mapping, water use/irrigation efficiency management, and environmental and climate change risk/vulnerability mapping. In this regard, the SDP, if implemented successfully, will be a role model for climate resilient cropping practices for rice in response to growing global food demand. Moreover, although the primary focus of the SDP will be on rice commercialization, the enabling legal, regulatory and institutional conditions put in place for rice will also create favorable conditions for the commercialization of other agricultural commodities. This will enable Cambodia to promote agricultural diversification and economic growth on a broader and sustainable basis. Justifications for Adopting the SDP Modality. The proposed interventions include a policy reform component, an investment component, and an associated technical assistance. The SDP modality is preferred and proposed for the following reasons. Commercialization of rice that addresses resilience of its underlying agro-ecological system will entail adjustments in legal framework and relevant regulations coupled with institutional strengthening of relevant actors. While this is necessary, it will not be sufficient to unlock the potential of supply chain actors including private sector investors and individual households. Therefore, policy and regulatory reforms will have to be accompanied by well sequenced/timed investments that enhance factor productivity. In this regard, adopting the sector development program modality for the proposed interventions is not only desirable, but necessary. Moreover, the RGC is firmly committed to rice commercialization to enhance economic growth and food security. Significant adjustment costs are associated with its implementation. |

Total 223 members including (48% female) are in the FWUCs Management Committees received 247 FWUC trainings on O&M of irrigation schemes conducted including study tours of FWUCs to learn successful O&M. Output 4 - Rice Value Chain Support Services Enhanced to Improve Quality of Cambodian Rice. Through letter of agreement approved by ADB, 231 tons of registered rice seed were produced by the 3 selected agriculture stations and sold to ACs and seed producer groups to produce 9,139.21 tons of certified seed for onward sale to farmers and traders. Total 601.77 tons of certified rice seed were produced using project funds through ACs. MAFF completed renovation of the National Seed Testing Laboratory and equipped with necessary equipment. MAFF conducted 244 training programs on rice seed production, post-harvest techniques, agricultural machinery utilization, rice quality inspection, rice milling technology, sustainable rice production, and effects of climate change to 14,743 participants (51% women). The program conducted 3 study tours for officials from EA and IAs and rice millers to modern rice milling facilities in Cambodia, Thailand, and Malaysia. The program conducted 3 workshops on 'Financial Access of Farmers for Rice Production for a total of 190 participants (8% women). Rice Millers Capacity Development is now carried out. PIOs carried out 25 business matching activities linking rice millers, 57 ACs producing rice seeds as well as paddy, exporters and ARDB. PIOs also provided training on storage and safe use of agriculture chemicals and inputs to inputs suppliers. A total of 1,174 inputs suppliers (33% women) attended the training. Output 5 - Weather-indexed Crop Insurance WICI) Piloted By December 2021, Rice SDP achieved: (i) a provisional list of 340 villages for WICI pilot testing prepared after detailed consultation with local authorities; (ii) procurement and installation of 23 automatic rain gauges in WICI pilot testing areas completed; (iii) designing of the WICI product based on satellite and selected weather stations data completed; and (iv) 147 training/technical meetings on WICI scheme conducted with a participation of 2,241 participants (28% women) from regulator office, insurance companies, meteorological and weather data agencies, agriculture research institutes, MFIs, agriculture input suppliers, provincial officials and others.

Summary of Environmental and Social Aspects | |
---|---|
Environmental Aspects | An environmental assessment was conducted for policy and project interventions during preparation. Policy interventions focus on improving agricultural practices (chemicals and fertilizer application), land-use zoning (to avoid environmentally sensitive areas), watershed protection, and water management in irrigation systems, all of which will improve the investment decision making and are likely to contribute to sustainable increase in rice production. An initial environmental examination was conducted for three representative subprojects to identify potential impacts, appropriate mitigation measures and monitoring mechanisms. These confirmed that proposed investments are not likely to cause significant adverse environmental impacts. Pre-screening of subprojects against environmental criteria also minimized the risk for negative environmental impact. Subprojects will follow environmental assessment procedures stipulated in the environmental assessment and review framework. |
Involuntary Resettlement | Limited involuntary resettlement is foreseen under Rice-SDP because of the screening of subprojects completed during preparation and only minor resettlement impacts are anticipated and this can be mitigated accordingly. Rehabilitation of irrigation systems will not cause significant resettlement impacts because works will be along existing rights of way and will mainly require, if any, the acquisition of minor amounts of land from persons living in existing canal rights of way and minor compensation for trees, crops or possibly small part of structures. The development of paddy drying and storage facilities will require the purchase of land on the open market using the principle of willing buyer and willing seller. There may be small land donations from the community for canal rehabilitation depending on subproject design requirements. All related transactions and consultation will be recorded accordingly. Issues related to compensation of previous canal rehabilitation (if any) shall be addressed by the government before subprojects can commence implementation. Interventions directed at other areas of the value chain involve mainly capacity building and raise no resettlement issues. Rice-SDP is assessed as Category B for resettlement. The Government has prepared a resettlement framework, to be endorsed by the Inter-ministerial Resettlement Committee. All costs related to resettlement and land purchase will be financed by the Government. |
Indigenous Peoples | Based on commune data-base information, supported by socio-economic survey in the target provinces, there were no indigenous peoples living in the subproject areas. In some beneficiary villages, there are Cham and Lao households. They have been living in Cambodia for several generations and are well mainstreamed into Cambodian society, undertaking the same livelihood pursuits and living amongst their Khmer neighbors. The communities and local authorities have confirmed that there are no indigenous peoples and no negative impact of the subproject investments on ethnic groups. Rice-SDP is assessed as Category C for Indigenous Peoples. |
Stakeholder Communication, Participation, and Consultation | |
During Project Design | A comprehensive participatory socioeconomic and gender role survey was conducted in 27 villages, involving 243 households. |
During Project Implementation | Community consultations will continue throughout implementation of the program. During construction, poor households will actively participate and benefit by providing wage labor. Bidding documents will request contractors to pursue such participation where possible.Communities will participate in operating and maintaining completed infrastructure by providing labor. Avenues for civil society participation include (i) participation in consultations throughout implementation cycle, (ii) working with farmer's cooperatives, and (iii) potential engagement as external monitoring agencies. Consultation covers local community leaders, civil society, and local peoples' organizations. The participation of civil society will be ensured by a number of means, including service contracts between Rice-SDP implementing agencies and nongovernment organizations for monitoring and evaluation and appropriate engagement as representatives of the beneficiaries. |
Business Opportunities | |
