At least four people have died in the floods swamping parts of Cambodia since last week.
Poipet city on the border with Thailand is among the latest areas to go under water.
The Cambodia Daily English language newspaper says more than 3, 400 hectares of rice, corn and cassava crops in several areas have been flooded.
Homes and roads have also been destroyed.
This is Prey Veng province in the east.
The floods, which started in Kompong Thom province, have spread here, and other areas including Siem Reap, Preah Vihear and Battambang.
