This land had to be cultivated collectively, and the harvest had to be divided among member families according to the amount of work each family had contributed as determined by a work point system. In dividing the harvest, allowance was made first for those who were unable to contribute their labor, like the elderly and the sick, as well as nurses, teachers, and administrators. Some of the harvest was set aside as seed for the following season, and the rest was distributed to the workers. Those who performed heavy tasks and who consequently earned more work points received a greater share of the harvest than those who worked on light tasks. Women without husbands, however, received enough to live on even if they did little work and earned few work points. Work points also were awarded, beyond personal labor, to individuals or to families who tended group-owned livestock or who lent their own animals or tools for solidarity group use. Each member family of a solidarity group was entitled to a private plot of between 1,500 and 2,000 square meters (depending upon the availability of land) in addition to land it held in common with other members. Individual shares of the group harvest and of the produce from private plots were the exclusive property of the producers, who were free to consume store, barter, or sell them. The solidarity groups evolved into three categories, each distinct in its level of collectivization and in its provisions for land tenure. The first category represented the highest level of collective labor. Member families of each solidarity group in this category undertook all tasks from plowing to harvesting. Privately owned farm implements and draft animals continued to be individual personal property, and the owners received remuneration for making them available to the solidarity group during the planting and the harvesting seasons. Each group also had collectively owned farm implements, acquired through state subsidy.

Founded in August 1997, with initial support from the French NGO GRET, today CEDAC stands as the preeminent Cambodian organization in the fields of agricultural and rural development, and is especially recognized for its farmer-led extension services, agricultural innovation trainings, support for farmer organizations and publications. CEDAC began with only seven employees that supported farmers in 2 villages in Kandal province. As of 2014, CEDAC employs 277 people, including 63 women, 222 technical staff members and 55 administration/support staff members. The organization currently provides direct assistance to about 160,000 families from 7,200 villages, 1,050 communes and 150 districts in 22 provinces of Cambodia. Since its inception, CEDAC has implemented more than 165 community development projects with funding support from over 40 institutional, international and private donors. Key development indicators include: - Improved health conditions (improved food, nutrition and sanitation) - Development of collective action and mutual cooperation among farmers and stakeholder - Improved income and saving capital - Improved management of natural resources and environment - Improved participation in local governance
