PHNOM PHEN - Siebe van Wijk and Jeroen Pasman recently returned from Cambodia, where they investigated the potential of the Cambodian fruit sector for exports within Asia and possibly to Europe.

To date, the Cambodian fruit sector has not been considered a viable proposition. Siebe and Jeroen found a vibrant domestic sector, relatively high domestic fruit prices, and several good quality domestically produced fruits, which certainly have potential for exports to Asia and Europe.
