This victory is a historic achievement, marking the seventh time Cambodian rice has won this prestigious international award, following its successes in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2018, 2022, and 2024.

The Ministry of Commerce issued a statement celebrating the win, emphasizing the source of the high quality:

“Winning this award is the result of the hard work of Cambodian farmers who have joined forces to produce high-quality rice, leading to international recognition of its value and excellence.”

International Recognition Fuels Record Exports

Cambodia’s consistent success at the World Rice Conference, a premier annual event for global rice industry leaders, is significantly boosting the country’s rice brand and increasing confidence among international buyers.

This growing reputation is reflected in the latest export figures from the Cambodia Rice Federation (CRF):

• In the first nine months of 2025 (January to September), the Kingdom exported 596,341 tonnes of milled rice, representing a robust 33.7% increase compared to the same period in 2024.
• Revenue generated from milled rice exports reached US$408 million, a 21% jump from the US$335 million earned the previous year.
• Adding to the impressive totals, Cambodia also earned approximately US$1.209 billion from the border trade of 5.24 million tonnes of paddy rice during this period.

The award affirms Cambodia’s position as a global leader in high-quality rice production and provides a strong foundation for future agricultural trade growth.
