Sad thing is, I bet 40% ends up in the dumpster. People here will not discount produce before it goes bad as many developing countries do. In Cambodia, most produce transactions happen directly between the buyer and the grower, and that is not the norm here.

I think there is more incentive to sell what you've grown versus someone else's produce. In Cambodia, nothing at the markets have a price on them, and it's up to the buyer and seller to find an agreeable price based on the quality, time of day, etc. !ENGAGE 10

That's a strange culture, for sure...
