Cranes, who used to flock to the land surrounding Khoay's rice field in significant numbers, are among the birds affected. Only 91 eastern sarus cranes visited Anlung Pring this year, according to NatureLife Cambodia, BirdLife International's Cambodian partner. The fate of these birds may rest with 16 farmers from Koh Chamkar village, including Khoay, who have leased their property to NatureLife.
