Good Business in Frog Farming
Cambodia News, Tbong Khmum Province: The Minister of Agriculture HE Veng Sakhon, visiting a frog farm in the province of Tbong Khmum says: This morning I would like to invite farmers to consider the experience of hatching and raising frogs of farmer Som Ly in Sangkat Vihear Luong, Suong City, who started to set up hatcheries and raise frogs from 6 ponds.

Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.

That place must make an awful lot of noise at night. It'd drive me nuts. But I do love me some spicy grilled frog.

Further encouragement for frog farmers from the Cambodian Minister of Agriculture:
Frog Farming Encouraged as Market Demand Rising
AKP Phnom Penh, October 14, 2020 --
H.E. Veng Sakhon, Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, has encouraged farmers to consider raising frogs as the market demand for the baby frogs is increasing.
The minister gave the advice when visiting Siem Reap province with H.E. Ms. Carmen Moreno, EU Ambassador to Cambodia and representatives from AFD, FAO and UNIDO, to evaluate the progress of the implementation of CaPFish-Capture and CaPFish Aquaculture in the province early this week.
H.E. Veng Sakhon congratulated the success of Mr. Kong Kimchhav, owner of frog farm at Kantraing commune, Bakong district, on his business and encouraged him to share the experience with other farmers.
Frog market price is currently between 50,000 to 60,000 Riel, about US$10.25 to about US$15 a pair.
CaPFish-Capture and CaPFish Aquaculture are programmes carried out under the EU’s financing support worth 87 million Euros.
The six-year programmes aim to achieve sustainable development, make resistant to climate change as well as to promote Cambodia’s inclusive aquaculture to ensure food security and socio-economic development in accordance with the government’s strategic plan for fisheries development.
The programmes are being implemented in ten provinces including Pursat, Battambang, Siem Reap, Kampong Thom, Kampong Cham, Banteay Meanchey, Kampong Chhnang, Kandal, Prey Veng, and Takeo.
