Message from President Dear Participants, It is my great pleasure to welcome all distinguished guests, prominent scholars, academics and participants to “The First International Conference on Sustainable Agriculture and Aquaculture (ICSAA): For Well Being and Food Security”, organized by the Faculty of Natural Resources, Prince of Songkla University. This event is a significant activity of the PISAI project (Participation and Integrative Support for Agricultural Initiative) under the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union. The project’s objective is to improve the Agricultural Education in Thailand as an efficient channel for agricultural production that contributes to the food security and high-quality food for global consumption. In addition, this event aims to be a platform for researchers, scientists and students from both PSU and other Higher Education Institutions to present their beneficial research works related to Sustainable Agriculture and Aquaculture. On behalf of Prince of Songkla University, I would like to express my heartfelt appreciation to the organizers and to various institutions both locally and internationally for their great contribution and collaboration to make this conference a success. My sincere thanks also go to the presenters and participants who are an important part of this conference. I truly believe that this conference will bring valuable benefits and practical applications for sustainable development in Agriculture and Aquaculture. Furthermore, all participants will be able to apply the knowledge gained from this event to further develop the agricultural production and its social and environmental sustainability. Lastly, I would like to take this opportunity to make a sincere wish for a successful and memorable conference for everyone. I hope you will enjoy the conference, enjoy spending time in Hat Yai, and enjoy the pleasant hospitality of our organizing committee. Asst. Prof. Dr. Niwat Keawpradub President Prince of Songkla University (i) Message from Chairman of Organizing Committee and Coordinator of PISAI Project (Participatory and Integrative Support for Agricultural Initiative- the Erasmus+ Capacity Building in Higher Education Project under the European Union) The First International Conference on Sustainable Agriculture and Aquaculture materialized due to four main factors. The first factor is the PISAI project commitment to organise the conference as an arena for students to present their work to a wide audience, get feedback from professors, and exchange with friends. The second factor is the PISAI project consortium, which have been working together since 2017 on a collaborative Double Degree Master’s Programme, whose students are presenting their theses at this event. The third factor is the Discipline of Excellence in Sustainable Aquaculture, the collaboration of three PSU faculties offering aquaculture programmes, with strong support from Aquatic Science Alumni Association and commitment to furthering their contribution to sustainable aquaculture by having their students present up-to-date research finds, as well as organise a special seminar on sustainable aquaculture. The last important factor is the professors, researchers and students from different institutions nationally and internationally who participated in the conference. Without their participation, the meeting would have been incomplete. For these reasons, I would like to thank PISAI consortium members for their input and continuous contributions to the PISAI project and this conference. Appreciation is extended to scientific committees who donated valuable time reviewing the papers, and to the invited speakers for their precious time providing excellent presentations. I would lastly like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to our colleagues and friends, both in Thailand and overseas, for their contributions to the event, either in-person or on-line, especially considering the obstacles posed by the COVID19 pandemic. Asst. Prof. Dr. Chutima Tantikitti Faculty of Natural Resources Prince of Songkla University (ii) Opening Speech Ministry of Higher Education Representative THE FIRST INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE AND AQUACULTURE Disseminating Activity of E+-CBHE Project Entitled “Participatory and Integrative Support for Agricultural Initiative (PISAI)” It is a great pleasure to be here and take part in the opening ceremony of the First International Conference on Sustainable Agriculture and Aquaculture. First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to Prince of Songkla University for inviting me to this important event, which gives me the great opportunity to meet His Excellency the EU Ambassador, project’s commission team, and PSU administrators and faculty members. Furthermore, on behalf of the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation, I would like to thank PSU for organizing this very important conference which is in line with Thailand’s national development plan. The sustainable agriculture is the prime priority that we are promoting in order to be self- sustained from the grass-root community impacting the nation-wide achievement as foreseen by our King Rama 9. I have learned that the conference is the final academic and disseminating activity of the PISAI project funded by Erasmus Plus – Capacity Building in Higher Education Programme of the European Union. The project aims at the double degree master program development among the four Thai leading universities in agriculture, namely Kasetsart University, Chiang Mai University, Khon Kaen University and Prince of Songkla University. This is a spearhead in the higher education development direction in our country that we are very happy to see happening. This initiation is very challenging, but the PISAI consortium has made it possible and successfully materialized it. I would also like to thank to the Erasmus Plus programme of the European Union and to the European partners, SupAgro in France, Czech University of Life Science Prague in Czech Republic, University of Copenhagen in Denmark, University of Helsinki in Finland and Agrinatura, for taking an important part in the project, and making the development of modules and double degree master program in sustainable agriculture happen. The Ministry highly values the partnership with international Higher Education institutions, and this conference shows that our higher education has strong ties with outstanding partners not only in our Asian region, but also with those in European countries. We really appreciate this close relationship and support. Moreover, having professors and students from different institutes and countries to meet at this conference is truly a challenge during this COVID-19 pandemic. We highly appreciate the participation of a high number of international professors from Europe, Japan and ASEAN countries, who could not make their trip to Thailand. I would like to mention that one of our main tasks at the Ministry of Higher Education is to support initiatives of all universities that bring Thailand to the forefront of internationally recognized education society. The concerted efforts in bringing the leading institutions in Thailand to create a Double Degree Master Program, to showcase students’ performances not only of those under the project but also of others from around Thailand, as well as to disseminate the outputs of students to the scholastic community, are fully recognized and supported. Apart from the scientific conference, I have been informed that there will also be a Thai partner consortium meeting to discuss about the continuity of the Double Degree Master Program in the field of agriculture within these two intensive days. Since the educational programs need to serve the future dynamic world, I strongly support this endurance for the benefit of students who need an educational program that suit their needs and is based not only on one single discipline. Finally, I would like to stress that amid the pandemic that has made the organization of this conference so complicated, I am confident that Prince of Songkla University has put their best effort to make this meaningful event a huge success. Thus, I do wish for this conference to bring continuous and strong cooperation among all partners and for the double degree

  • Phylogeny and Host Association in Platygaster Latreille, 1809 (Hymenoptera, Platygastridae)
    Phylogeny and host association in Platygaster Latreille, 1809 (Hymenoptera, Platygastridae) Peter Neerup Buhl Buhl, P.N.: Phylogeny and host association in Platygaster Latreille, 1809 (Hy­ menoptera, Platygastridae). Ent. Meddr 69: 113-122. Copenhagen, Denmark 2001. ISSN 0013-8851. An examination of the known midge host/midge plant host associations for species of Platygasterparasitoid wasps seems to indicate a number of natural par­ asitoid species groups restricted to specific plant families. Midge hosts seem less indicative for platygastrid relationships, but several exceptions from this rule exist. The possible reasons for this are discussed. It is also shown that species of Platy­ gaster with known host associations generally prefer midges on plant families which are not the families generally prefered by the midges. Furthermore, a com­ parison of the known midge host/midge plant host associations for the genera of the "Platygaster-cluster" and the "Synopeas-cluster" shows great differences in the general preferences of the clusters. P.N. Buhl, Troldh0jvej 3, DK-3310 0lsted, Denmark. E-mail: [email protected] Introduction The phylogeny of the very large platygastrid genus Platygaster, tiny parasitoids on gall midges (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae), is mostly unresolved. The great problems which meet the investigator are primarily - as in all platygastrids - the few external characters avail­ able in a phylogenetic analysis. A further obstacle in the revisionary work is that many species are known only from short dated original descriptions (unknown or unrevised type material). Aspects of the biology (midge host or host plant of midge) are, however, known for about half the described species, so perhaps this could enlighten aspects of the parasitoid taxonomy- as was successfully done e.g.

  • New Attractions in Songkhla Province in the Deep South (6/5/2014)
    New Attractions in Songkhla Province in the Deep South (6/5/2014) Songkhla, one of the five southern border provinces of Thailand, connects with the Kedah State of Malaysia, and its Mueang district is a major seaside city. New projects have been launched to develop this southernmost province as a historical site and to introduce a new natural attraction. One of the projects is "Songkhlas First Chinatown and the other is the sunflower field in the heart of the city of Songkhla. Chairman of the Songkhla Chamber of Commerce Somporn Siriporananon said that the Songkhlas First Chinatown is included in the four-year Songkhla Economic Development Plan, 2015 to 2018. The plan was submitted to the Songkhla Provincial Administration in late February 2014. Songkhla Governor Grisada Boonrach has appointed a working group, comprising members of the public and private sectors, to carry out the project, which must produce concrete results within the next two years. Songkhlas First Chinatown is a new route for historical tourism. This route starts at the old city gate in Khao Daeng subdistrict, Singhanakhon district. Before the Sukhothai period, Chinese immigrants traveled by junk boat to Thailand through Songkhla. The old city gate area was the first place they entered the city. Under the project, the old city gate will be renovated, a junk museum will be built, and the landscape in this area will be improved, with the creation of scenic viewing points. The route leads to various historical sites, such as the Songkhla Fort, Hua Khao Daeng Old City Wall, Wat Suwankhiri, Wat Pha Kho, the Laem Son Old Town, the Songkhla City Pillar, and the Hat Yai Cultural Center.

  • Traditional Intricate Paper Cutting Techniques of Southern Thailand: Background, Beliefs, and Cultural Animation of Thai Buddhist Culture
    manusya 23 (2020) 60-85 brill.com/mnya Traditional Intricate Paper Cutting Techniques of Southern Thailand: Background, Beliefs, and Cultural Animation of Thai Buddhist Culture Pannee Virunanont (พรรณี วิรุณานนท์) Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Communication Design Department, School of Fine and Applied Arts, Bangkok University, Bangkok, Thailand [email protected] Abstract Intricate paper cutting of Southern Thailand is a traditional folk art, which is passed down from one generation to another. However, there are no detailed studies or re- cords of the historical backgrounds, beliefs, and cultural animation of Thai-Buddhist culture in Southern Thailand concerning this folk art. This study, therefore, aims to examine this art form in Songkhla and Nakhon Sri Thammarat provinces, which have their own cultural identities. The goal is to register this art form as a part of cultural heritage. The compilation of vital data includes (1) paper characteristics, (2) paper en- graving methods, (3) colours, (4) instruments, (5) pattern designing, (6) purposes of the arts, (7) origins and history, and (8) knowledge of transferring methods. The find- ings reveal the origins of the beliefs and Buddhist faith of the community. The intricate paper cutting techniques are still maintained in the form of decorations found at aus- picious events, festivals, and cultural ceremonies in every region of Thailand. The tech- niques of this art form are in decline but its use still prevails in community life, remain- ing favourites at auspicious festivities and cultural

Performance of the Beef Cattle Cooperative in the Land Reform: A Case of Pang Sila Thong Cooperative, Thailand. International Journal of Agricultural Technology 12(7.1):1589-1598. In Thailand, beef cattle farming was dominated by small-scale farming within adequate capital and land resulting in farmer cannot implement self-sufficiency system. Thus, creating a network in the form of beef cattle cooperative is an important strategic to enhance a competitiveness of beef cattle raising in Thailand. In this regards, Pang Sila Thong (PST), an outstanding beef cattle cooperative established in June 2003, consisted of 11 small-scale farmers in land reform. The member of farmers continuously increased to 279 members and seven staff in 2015. A good cooperative system can be useful for the beef cattle farming. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the characteristics of PST beef cattle cooperative, and to find out determinants of cooperative financial performance. Data were collect from cooperative financial report. The analytical techniques employed in this study included descriptive statistics, and financial aggregates analyzed. The results revealed that the total capital of the cooperative was 42.26 million Thai Baht (THB).

    GW-4 Geological Survey of Japan, AIST Project report on CCOP-GSJ/AIST-GA Groundwater Phase II Project Final Meeting 18-20 March 2014, Bandung, Indonesia COORDINATING COMMITTEE FOR GEOSCIENCE PROGRAMMES IN EAST AND SOUTHEAST ASIA (CCOP) In cooperation with GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF JAPAN (GSJ), AIST Published by CCOP Technical Secretariat Bangkok, Thailand Youhei Uchida (Chief Editor) PREFACE Groundwater is one of the limited natural resources of the world. Because of the lack a feeling of importance of groundwater, especially, in the late 20th century, groundwater has been significantly damaged by human activities, resulting in groundwater issues, such as land subsidence, seawater intrusion, and groundwater pollution by toxic substances, that have become remarkable problems in everywhere in the world. The countries in the East and Southeast Asia have been also faced the many groundwater problems which are needed international cooperation to be solved. Since the establishment of the organization in 1966, geological and geophysical surveys have been carried out by the CCOP under the cooperative schemes in the East and Southeast Asia for offshore natural resources. These data have been distributed to member countries as printed maps and publications. As for a groundwater project, “Groundwater database in East and Southeast Asia͇had been compiled under the DCGM Phase IV project of CCOP from 2001 to 2004. The following project, named “Groundwater Assessment and Control in the CCOP Region by CCOP-GSJ/AIST Groundwater project” from 2005 to 2008, had been started from a point of view of finding a solution of issues on an exploration and an exploitation of a groundwater resource.
