Category:Year of Rice  Laos  Cambodia  Rice  Food Security 

An evaluation of three food production projects in South East Asia from the AusAID Quality Assurance Series No. 15 (June 1999. Australia provides significant support through its aid program by extending the benefits of new rice technology to poorer farmers throughout Indochina. This study looks at three AusAID projects - in Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos - that focus on rice production but also place a strong emphasis on strengthening the capabilities of national agricultural research institutions. While these initiatives are critical to enhancing the quality of life of poor farmers through better food security, they can also have a detrimental effect on the environment. Overall, however, they were found to have a minimal effect on local ecosystems and were assessed as sustainable and effective in improving food security and increasing the incomes of farming families.
