Ibis Rice warehouse officially opens
Wed, 23 December 2020
The Ministry of Environment and Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS Cambodia) have officially opened the IBIS Rice Conservation Company warehouse.
The warehouse will store rice for the IBIS Rice Conservation Co Ltd (IBIS Rice) as part of their efforts towards the conservation of the endangered Giant Ibis, which they primarily undertake by purchasing organic jasmine rice at premium prices from farmers who commit to both protecting the forest and stopping poaching.
An opening ceremony took place at the warehouse, located in Phnom Penh’s Phsar Doeum Thkov district, on December 22.
Environment minister Say Sam Al said the rice’s winning combination of being both wildlife-friendly and certified as organic would ensure that it fetched premium prices in high value markets around the world.
