Averstar Empowers Cambodian Rice Farmers with Innovative Crop Solutions to Combat Pests and Diseases

 – Averstar, a leading global agrochemical brand dedicated to sustainable agriculture, has officially launched its specialized rice protection portfolio in Cambodia. This strategic expansion aims to support local farmers in their fight against devastating rice pests and diseases, safeguarding food security and enhancing livelihoods across the kingdom's vital rice-growing regions.

Rice is the cornerstone of Cambodia's agriculture and economy. However, farmers consistently face significant challenges from pests like Brown Planthoppers and Rice Stem Borers, as well as diseases such as Rice Blast and Sheath Blight. These threats can severely impact yield and quality, affecting both national production and individual farmer incomes.

Averstar enters the market with a commitment that goes beyond simply selling products. The company is introducing a "Science-Backed, Farmer-Focused" initiative, centered on high-efficacy, reliable crop protection solutions specifically tailored to local conditions.

Key pillars of the Averstar Cambodia launch include:

• Proven, Registered Solutions: Averstar's flagship insecticides and fungicides, now fully registered with the Cambodian Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, offer effective control against major local threats.

• Knowledge Transfer & Training: A core component is educating farmers on Integrated Pest Management (IPM). Averstar, in partnership with local distributors, will conduct field training, demonstration plots, and workshops on accurate pest identification, safe application practices, and resistance management.

• Building Trust Through Transparency: By providing products with clear Khmer-language labeling and accessible technical support, Averstar aims to combat the issue of counterfeit or substandard agrochemicals in the market.

• Strategic Local Partnerships: The company is collaborating with established Cambodian agricultural distributors and cooperatives to ensure its solutions reach farmers efficiently and to build a robust, service-oriented network.

"We are honored to bring Averstar's expertise to Cambodia," said [Spokesperson Name/Title, e.g., Mr. Chen Wei, International Business Director of Averstar]. "Our goal is to become a trusted partner for Cambodian rice farmers. We believe that by providing effective tools and the knowledge to use them correctly, we can help farmers protect their harvests, increase their productivity, and contribute to a more resilient agricultural sector."

Initial demonstration plots in key provinces like Battambang and Takeo have shown promising results, with participating farmers reporting healthier crops and reduced pest pressure.

Averstar's entry into Cambodia represents a significant step in its mission to support global food security through innovation and responsible agriculture, directly aligning with national goals to enhance rice production and sustainability.
