The Kingdom exported 9,379.29 tons of sesame last year, according to a report from the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, with Vietnam buying the lion’s share. Cambodia sent 6,951 tons of sesame to Vietnam, 1,970 tons to Thailand, 439 tons to Taiwan and 18.5 tons to Japan, the report said.

Khan Samban, a director of the agro-industry department at the ministry, said exports of sesame were rising but did not say by how much as official data had yet to be finalized. “Almost every agricultural product saw an increase in exports because the international market is starting to recognize our products while the government is paving the way for exporters to find markets,” Mr. Samban said. “In 2015, Cambodian sesame and cashew nuts had very good markets for export and at good prices,” he added.
