Description: |
|
Rice is a staple in the Cambodian diet, whether it’s eaten for
breakfast, dinner or a simple snack. Therefore, it comes as
little surprise that the country grows some of the world’s
finest rice.
Step out of the city and you’ll find evidence of
Cambodians’ passion for rice everywhere. The countryside is a
patchwork quilt of rice fields, with agriculture being one of
the country’s main economic pillars (contributing at least 23
percent of its total gross domestic product).
The
majority of rural families in Cambodia have small paddies,
surrounding their wooden stilt houses that pepper the
countryside. They grow enough rice to see their family through
the year, storing the grains in homemade shelters.
These
humble crops can be contrasted with large-scale farming for
export and sale, involving years of rigorous testing to achieve
the perfect grain. For the past three years, Cambodian rice has
been internationally-recognised as the best rice on the planet. |
