Cows accidentally killed by poisoned pasture

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

And it's ok for people to eat the rice from this field then ? If it's enough to kill a cow, I hate to think what it would do to a kid. The cows eat more of course, but it's still a worry. Or does the poison 'disappear' by the time the rice is harvested ?
They seem to use all sorts of pesticides on the rice here (source: random news articles), and with the dubious amount of food control in Cambodia, it seems obvious that alot of this shit remains in the food and is poisoning the population. :whip:
Including us of course. Who doesn't eat rice in Cambodia ?

Vietnam also has a problem with pesticides in their rice production - even rice for export to the US:
