However, knowledge of transformation of farming system and innovation, which is important of agricultural development, had not been study carefully especially around Tonle Sap Lake, the biggest cultivation area in the country. The purpose of this study is to analyze the transformation process in farming system and identify factors affecting the adoption of innovation. Agrarian System diagnosis was used to build farm typology and its transformation with the combination of principal component and cluster analysis while logit model is used for second objective. The Results show that there are five main types of farm household currently existing in three different agroecological zone of Siem Reap Province. The evolution of these farm types was the consequence of Khmer Rouge Regime, land redistribution policy after civil war, and rapidly transformation in social and economic activities in the last twenty years. The majorities of households were cultivating rice and had started to adopted mechanization recently. The finding had identified 6 factors significantly influencing the adoption of machineries which include age of household head, farm labor input, total asset, farm income, diversify cropper, and marketoriented farm. This study suggests that identifying farming system and factor influence the adoption of innovation were necessary in order to promote sustainable development and improving livelihood of rural farmer in Cambodia.
