'As a nation, we need to transform food supply chains to ensure the system can deliver quality and nutritious food for all Cambodians.'

The appeal was made on World Food Day, the statement said, adding that Cambodia has put in place the National Roadmap for Food Systems for Sustainable Development 2030.

Antonio Schiavone, officer in charge of FAO Representation in Cambodia, said because agrifood systems are interlinked to so many different areas of lives and economy, ranging from agriculture to natural resources to energy to health, they hold great potential as vehicles for a more equitable and prosperous future.

According to WFP's recent market update, the price of rice, the staple of the Cambodian diet, has remained relatively stable so far.
