Exports of red corn fell in H1 According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries, red corn shipments to Cambodia in the first half of 2023 were just 18,053 tonnes, a sharp decline of 78.74% from the same time the previous year. According to ministry spokeswoman Im Rachna, the drop in crop production has been sparked by a confluence of volatile market conditions and the effects of climate change. Rachna went on to discuss problems with the crop's unauthorized export. This includes transactions conducted through Vietnamese and Thai commercial channels that lack the required phytosanitary certification and are not reported. (Source: The Phnom Penh Post)
