Phnom Penh (VNA) – Four subsidiaries of the Viet Nam Rubber Group (VRG) will plant a combined acreage of 4,100 ha of rubber in Cambodia this year.
The plan was announced at a conference of the VRG held in Phnom Penh on January 9 to discuss measures to speed up rubber cultivation in Cambodia under an agreement between the two governments.
So far, six companies under the VRG have been allocated over 22,000 ha of land in Cambodia to grow rubber trees.
Of them, Phu Rieng and Tan Binh companies have so far put 270 ha under rubber trees, generating many jobs for local people. However, the companies complained of the costly land reclamation due to poor soil, a lack of skilled workers, materials and machines and hindrances from import procedures.
Participants agreed on several measures to accelerate the planting, including looking for local supply of materials and equipment and training local labourers.
