Description |
The Cambodian rice industry has recently experienced fast upgrading. This is evident in the increasing amount of milled rice exports to international markets. This study aims at examining how and what factors have affected the upgrading of the Cambodian rice industry by applying the concept of value chain governance and examining the role of institutional support, especially that of government. Primary interviews and questionnaire surveys involved 119 respondents, including rice millers, exporters and other key industry stakeholders while a wide range of secondary data sources were consulted. The study reveals that two major factors affected the upgrading: (1) value chain governance, which refers to the power relations among actors, and (2) institutional supports, including government actions on policy and directives and its, facilitation of access to finance, market development and capacity building of exporters. The success of the upgrading can be seen as an example of public-private collaboration.
