1.1. Main Objectives 1) To evaluate consumer’s perception on safety of fresh
produce sold in Siem Reap and Kampong Cham towns;
2) To evaluate consumer’s awareness on GAP concept and its roles in ensuring fresh produce safety;
3) To determine consumer’s willingness to pay (WTP) for GAP-certified produce;
4) To identify fresh produce which are perceived to pose the greatest risk to human health and the greatest potential for GAP certification;

![Page 39: Consumer Awareness and Market Demand Survey for GAP ...For fruit, the premium for GAP certification ranges from 400 to 1,100 Riel/kg . Calculated as % of retail price, it could be](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051815/60408f58ebe39a25d7437890/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
1. Consumers perceive that domestically grown fresh produce is somewhat safe, while imported produce is somewhat unsafe. However, this safety evaluation does not accurately reflect the actual situation in the country, given that the judgment was based on consumer’s perception rather than knowledge based on actual testing on residue on produce.
2. There is a misperception among both consumers and sellers that chemical fertilizers pose an adverse effect to produce safety. Since GAP does not entirely eliminate chemical application from production, the public should be communicated that chemical application in a proper amount and at an appropriate time does not affect the safety of produce.
3. The majority of consumers are not aware of the GAP concept, as what expected earlier prior to the study implementation. However, they tend to anticipate the important role of the GAP in ensuring fresh produce safety.

4. For vegetables, five potential commodities recommended by households and retailers include cucumber, cabbage, curly wrap pak choy, Chinese green, and water convolvulus. Among hotels and restaurants, in addition to cucumber and cabbage, they recommended the other three potential commodities comprising lettuce, tomato and bok choy.
5. For fruit, households and retailers recommended five commodities: longan, rambutan, green orange, durian, and dragon fruit. Hotels and restaurants also share common views on rambutan and dragon fruit, and add three more fruit commodities including pineapple, watermelon and banana.
