Interbasin Transfers Within Thailand*: the Salween/Luam/Ping/Chao Phraya Projects
Interbasin Transfers within Thailand*: the Salween/Luam/Ping/Chao Phraya projects An interbasin transfer is an engineering scheme that diverts some or all of the discharge from a discrete river basin (or from a sub-basin within a larger catchment) LQWRDVWUHDPGUDLQLQJDFRPSOHWHO\GLͿHUHQWEDVLQRU sub-basin, thereby agumenting the latters’ discharge by a volume equivalent to that diminished from the source catchment.

A Model in Promoting Highland Terrace Paddy Cultivation Technology in Northern Thailand
IJERD – International Journal of Environmental and Rural Development (2018) 9-1 Research article erd A Model in Promoting Highland Terrace Paddy Cultivation Technology in Northern Thailand ALISA SAHAHIRUN* Suphanburi Provincial Agricultural Extension Office, Department of Agricultural Extension, Suphanburi Province, Thailand Email: [email protected] ROWENA DT. BACONGUIS Institute for Governance and Rural Development, College of Public Affairs and Development, University of the Philippines Los Baños, Collage, Laguna, Philippines Received 29 December 2017 Accepted 12 May 2018 (*Corresponding Author) Abstract This study aimed to investigate the adoption of Highland Terrace Paddy Cultivation Technology (HTPCT) in Northern Thailand. HTPCT was promoted by the Rice Department in 2003 in four provinces of Northern Thailand under the Royal Development Project. Previous studies showed increased yields using HTPCT while cost of converting sloping lands into terrace paddy can be recouped in a few years. However, despite the promotion of the technology, adoption had not been widespread. To understand the limitations in the adoption process, quantitative and qualitative research was conducted in 5 villages of Chiang Mai and Mae Hong Son provinces located in Doi Ompai Mountain. Results show that overall the respondents had high level of adoption but for two practices, namely, soil fertilizer management and sequential cropping system and livestock production, the respondents had moderate level of adoption. Further, the two production practices were only partially practiced by the farmers. This means that even if the adopters converted their upland rice areas to terrace paddy, they still used some traditional technologies and did not follow all recommended HTPCT practices. The common problems mentioned by the respondents in practicing HTPCT were water and labor shortage, difficulty of land preparation, lack of bio-pesticides and green manure seeds, familiarity with traditional cultivation and their superstition which worked against widespread adoption. -
Yuam River from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
Coordinates: 17°49!55"N 97°41!31"E Yuam River From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Yuam River (Thai: แมนยวม is a river in northwestern Thailand, part of the Salween watershed. It originates in the mountains of the Thanon Thong Chai Range, Khun Yuam District, Mae Hong Son Province, Thailand. The river flows in a north–south direction and then in Sop Moei District it bends westwards and then Yuam River (แมนยวม) northwestwards, forming a stretch of the Thai/Burmese border shortly before it joins the left bank of the Moei River, shortly before its confluence with the Salween. A major dam is projected on this river as part of a water diversion plan from the Salween to the Chao Phraya River.[1] The Ngao River, which unlike most rivers in Thailand flows northwards, is one of the Yuam's main tributaries.[2] See also River systems of Thailand Mae Ngao National Park The Yuam River near Mae Sariang References Countries Thailand, Burma 1.
