Cambodian Center for Study and Development in Agriculture
Open-knowledge reference entry

CEDAC (Centre d'Etude et de Development Agricole Cambodgien/Cambodian Center for Study and Development in Agriculture) is an agricultural and rural development organization set up in August 1997 to work for the development of ecologically based family agriculture, and to promote a cooperative and mutual assistance movement in the rural areas of Cambodia. Initial support came from the French non-governmental organization (NGO), GRET (Groupe de Recherches et d'Echanges Technologiques).
The Cambodian Centre for study and development Agriculture also known as the CEDAC has a really big role when it comes to strengthening the agricultural sector. It does this by allowing smaller farmers to improve their economic knowledge. Farmers Help Group is one of the other organizations that help farmers advocate for their farmers rights, making sure their voices are heard in policy discussions. As of this it helps farmers have a sense of unity that reduces exploitation by unnecessary people and it creates a more equal opportunity. Additionally, they also provide extensive training on how to have more sustainable farming techniques, for farmers to increase their knowledge by also keeping their natural way of doing it. This collective approach not only boosts incomes in the long run but also encourages long-term agricultural sustainability.
One important benefit of the cooperatives is their ability to improve profits through the shared resources and bulk marketing. In Cambodia, there is a cooperative organization that, as reported by Open Health News, helps farmers increase their earnings by reducing production costs and improving market linkages.

Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as open-knowledge reference entry. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 8, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q5025142. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1997.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
