Economic development
Economic development is related to improvments in the economic
condition of the people. The economic condition of the people
can be improved by creating employment opportunities and
professional training.
Soil experimentation
In order to improve people's living conditions in the Siemreap
region, the department has experimented with the soil around
Angkor and the soil taken from Tonle Sap's bottom (delta)
for middle-rice cultivatiopn. Another soil experiment tries
to find out what kind of land is suitable to different kinds
of crop cultivation. In the future, the fertile soil which
has been identified by the experiment may be used instead
of the less fertile one.
This pilot project is taking place at the Agricultural
Experimentation Department, Teok Vil, and at the Royal University
of Agriculture (Chamkar Doung). Meanwhile, the department
uses enzymes for fishing and livestock raising at the Faculty
of Fishery and the Faculty of Science and Physics. |
