We are participating in the "Capacity Development for Climate Mitigative Water Management Technology" in Cambodia

October 2025

AWDSC We are participating in the "Capacity Development for Climate Mitigative Water Management Technology" (Asian Development Bank Technical Assisstance Project) being implemented in Cambodia. The project aims to increase rice yields, reduce greenhouse gas emissions from paddy to earn carbon credits by introducing AWD (Alternate Wetting and Drying) irrigation, a method used in Japan and other countries, to paddy irrigation areas in Cambodia. The predominant paddy irrigation method in Cambodia is plot-to-plot irrigation, which is very different from that in Japan, so introducing AWD irrigation presents technical challenges, but we hope to overcome these challenges and make this a meaningful project for Cambodian farmers. Two experts of our company will be participating: Team Leader/AWD Specialist and Deputy Team Leader/Irrigation Specialist.

We support Cambodian food/agricultural processors in obtaining HACCP certification.

March 2025

In many developing countries, including Cambodia, the weakness of agricultural and food processing is a bottleneck in building food value chains. Farmers are unable to sell their produce at high prices as there are no food/agricultural processors willing to buy their produce at a fair price. Aiming to solve this problem in Cambodia, we decided to start a consulting service to support food/agricultural processors in obtaining HACCP certification. If food/agricultural processing organizations can obtain HACCP certification, they will have a greater opportunity to export high-quality agricultural products and food to foreign countries, including Japan. The service will be provided in Khmer language.
As a launch campaign, we will provide our services free of charge to the first few organizations.

For more information about this service, please see below.

Cambodian food/agricultural processors interested in this service are welcome to apply via the link below.

We conducted a study tour for the horticulture value chain stakeholders in Uzbekistan.

October 2024

Study Tour in Japan As part of the Uzbekistan Horticulture Value Chain Promotion Project (Phase 2), in which our company is participating, we conducted a study tour to Japan for Uzbek horticulture value chain stakeholders, such as food processing companies. The tour included participation in an agricultural exhibition with business matchning with Japanese companies, a visit to a food processing company in Ibaraki Prefecture, a visit to a melon farm, a specialty product both for Ibaraki Prefecture and Uzbekistan, and a roadside station. We also invited lecturers from universities to explain about agriculture and food business in Japan. The Uzbek participants are already putting what they learned on the tour into practice in their businesses, such as purchasing the latest equipment they discovered at the agricultural exhibition and exporting agricultural products based on the needs of importing countries. For more information on the project, please see the link below.
