Abstract
This Cambodia country report is part of the larger project “Avian Influenza Risk: Characterization and Dynamics of Backyard Poultry Raising Systems in Five Asian Countries.” The project worked to characterize backyard poultry rearing systems, the variations among them, their roles in rural livelihood systems, and to work with stakeholders in this sector to devise practical, equitable and sustainable options to reduce the likelihood of human Avian Influenza (AI) pandemic. Despite high awareness and widespread knowledge about AI and personal protective measures, farmers continue to practice traditional ways of keeping chickens.
