About CASIC

Since 2004, the Department of Agricultural Land Resources Management (DALRM) with the support from CIRAD have been working on innovative cropping systems and practices based on the principles of Conservation Agriculture (CA). These practices have been designed and tested in different agroecosystems of Cambodia. Results from these scientific studies showed that Conservation Agriculture Production Systems (CAPS) improved soil fertility, reduce labor, conserved water and increased yield and income for smallholder farmers
