The Future
02 - December - 2011

  CARDI’s mission of “Technology for Prosperity” is based on an analysis of how the agricultural sector in Cambodia is expected to evolve in the future. CARDI’s vision of how it will respond to the future operational environment and achieve their mission has the following features:
  • Assist the RGC to achieve its rural development objectives;
  • Focus on applying technology with major impacts on poverty alleviation and living standards;
  • Deliver high quality, highly valued research and development services;
  • Work in partnership with extension, NGO and private sector agencies to increase the impact of improved technologies;
  • Improve its capacity to deliver quality research and development services that meet client needs;
  • Apply a business-like approach to its operation; and,
  • Promote the impact and value of research for the development of Cambodia
CARDI inherited an on-going research program from CIAP, mainly concerned with rice production.  It has already started broadening the base of its research programs to include other agricultural commodities.  While CARDI recognises that diversification of its research portfolio is a key step in assisting the Royal Government of Cambodia achieve its rural development objectives, the precise nature of CARDI’s future research portfolio will be determined through a national agriculture research priority setting and funding process. 

As well as diversification of CARDI’s research profile into other crops the focus may shift from yield to an increased emphasis on quality, including post-harvest technology and practices.  CARDI could well become a key provider of national priority research, contract research, technology packaging, training, consultancy and quality seed in Cambodia and further abroad.  Working towards that point CARDI has already adopted a partnership approach to enhance its ability to provide the range and quality of agricultural research and development services required for the future.
