We carried out an interview and questionnaire survey for the first 296 VEWs, and analyzed their basic information, to find out their current service situations, technical training and demand, as well as difficulties in the course of providing services. On the basis of these, we put forward our recommendations on improving the VEW construction.展开更多

This study aimed to assess the knowledge and practices, in terms of pig biosecurity measures, of individual stakeholders involved in pig production in rural and peri-urban households in Cambodia. A survey tool was developed and administered using Kobotoolbox, an online electronic survey tool. Surveys were conducted in the provinces of Kampong Thom, Siem Reap, and Battambang during December 2017 to September 2018. There were 225 pig farmers, 43 village animal health workers (VAHWs), 3-district veterinarians (DVs), and 81 feed store owners enrolled in the study. Results showed that several biosecurity guidelines are not followed or well understood by farmers. Specific concerning practices included using natural boars, sharing pig equipment (e.g. scales), feeding kitchen waste, managing other livestock, handling manure, and not restricting access by visitors (VAHWs or DVs, boar owners, pig buyers, neighbors, and meat sellers). Thus, education of pig smallholder farmers and VAHWs on pig biosecurity is needed for improving pig health and production, economic value, and livelihood of smallholder farmers in Cambodia.展开更多

Through analyzing the fl ow condition in development process of the village elite personnel in the village cooperatives, this paper explores the struggle and cooperation between the developments of cooperatives of endogenous force in rural structure. The study found that under the limited situation of rural elite capacity, as an embedded base village bottom-up formation of cooperatives, the internal forces are constantly in a tension structure, the various forces in the different development period are conversion between the symbiotic and opposition; Combination, differentiation, struggle of various forces within the cooperative are supported by their own wealth, genetic, factional social capital; the splits and realignments of malignant competition forces caused by internal cooperatives are the key power to restrict the development of village cooperatives. The base-level countryside and cooperatives needs limited elite unity and equilibrium of internal forces to obtain effective governance and long-term development.展开更多
