1 Summary of Day 1: Agrarian Structure Seminar Hang Chuon Naron, Secretary-General, Ministry of Economy and Finance, Kingdom of Cambodia 28 June
2 2 PROF. HAYAMI, Keynote Speaker Agrarian system consists of agrarian Structure and institutions; Agrarian structure: who own farm lands; who use farm lands; small family farms vs. large plantations; Agrarian institutions: rules for land and labor, laws and customs; property rights and contracts; Two models: plantations link up with exporters directly, while family farms through local trade network.
3 PROF. HAYAMI, Keynote Speaker Global demand is in large quantity and of standardized quality, while local supply may be diverse; Therefore, local products should be processed and assembled to meet global demand through bulking process by local trade network. Rice, corn, soy bean are not perishable; For flower and highly perishable marketing is not easy (estate firm and plantation); 3
4 4 PROF. HAYAMI, Keynote Speaker Estates (plantations, cooperatives): some product needs coordination between production and processing, as well as marketing for global demand; only a few crops rubber, banana, coffee, palm oil, require tight command; monoculture and soil degradation; pest, social costs and conflicts, but ability to build infrastructures; Family farms can be efficient if: Technology; market and community s capacity; Makes local trade network efficient; Government should provide infrastructures, agricultural research and extension.
5 H.E. LU LAY SRENG, Minister for Rural Development, Opening Remarks Rural development is key to improving the living standards of the population to reach MDGs; Village Development Committees at the grassroots level ensure participation of the population in decision making in conjunction with Commune Councils in managing projects-roads, schools, sanitation, food security; Decentralization, rural infrastructures, processing, marketing services, land management, environmental sustainability.

6 Plenary session 1: Agrarian structure: The Role of Land Policies Dr. Gershon Feder, Research Manager, WB Property rights evolve with population and trade; sources of conflicts and has implications on economic performance; Market emerges only if rights defined, public enforcement reduces transaction costs; Characteristics of land markets: rentals, sales, imperfections of the markets. Land reform and distribution: positive social and productivity impact in Asia; Role of government in providing tenure security: clear legislation, efficient administration, effective dispute resolution, land use zoning, risk of conces. 6
7 Plenary session 1: Agrarian structure: The Role of Land Policies Dr. Ou Vuddy, DDG, MLMUPC Land policy evolves with political, cultural and customs development; Since 1987, the introduction of private ownership for habitation, use rights for cultivated land (5 ha), and concessions, but enforcement of property rights remained a problem- Tragedy of the Commons; Weak administration led to insecurity of land tenure and public land grabbing; Freedom in the context of the lack of institutions ; New Land Law in 2001, but lacks IRs; Land policy statement and sub-decrees; Family farms are efficient in Vietnam and Thailand 7
8 Plenary session 1: Agrarian structure: The Role of Land Policies Oknha MONG RITHY In 1996, Palm oil plantations in 11,000 ha, of which 4,000 ha planted; 16 million $ invested; Processing capacity 5 tons per hour; Land disputes between MRTG and former loggers in 2005; Unclearly defined property rights and the lack of enforcement do not promote economic performance and have the potential of damaging private investments in agribusiness. 8
9 Plenary session 1: Agrarian structure: The Role of Land Policies Dr. YANG SAING KOMA, Director, (CDAC) Family agriculture is based on land; 75-80% of 2.2 million families are small rice farmers; Family farms account for 60-70% of active workforce, the core of social-economic and political stability; Competitiveness of ecological-based family farms in organic products reduce imports and increase exports; System of Rice Intensification (SRI) produce surplus of good quality rice; Research and extension, development of farmer associations, land allocations to farmers. 9
10 10 Plenary session 2: Implications of WTO on Agriculture and Farmers PROF. HAYAMI, Keynote Speaker Third alternatives: contract farming. Small holders can link up with agri-business (technical guidance, marketing and processing) to boost products and exports through an efficient system. Contract farming used to reduce supervision; Mutual trust is not easy to established; There is no single form of contract farming: Teams of 10 to 15 to do work in the plantations; Plantations reduce working incentives, leading to introduction of performance- based parcel system;
11 11 PROF. HAYAMI, Keynote Speaker Traditional peasant marketing system is efficient for traditional subsistence crops = storage with small marketable surplus, e.g. rice, corn, soybean etc. Inefficient for new crops of rising demand, i.e. flower, fruits, vegetable. Inter-village collector of vegetable marketing reflects some sort of contract farming;
12 12 PROF. HAYAMI, Keynote Speaker Policy issues: Make market competitive; Government as mediator; Market information; Protection of property rights & contracts; Hard infrastructure and environment.
