  • Content Analysis of Thai's Agricultural Volunteers Development From
    Submission 50 Content Analysis of Thai’s Agricultural Volunteers Development from Thesis and Research Chokthumrong Chongchorhor Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Kamphaeng Phet Rajabhat University 69 Tambon Nakhon Chum, Amphoe Mueang Kamphaeng Phet, Kamphaeng Phet 62000, Thailand. [email protected] KEYWORDS Agricultural volunteers development, success factors, content analysis 1. INTRODUCTION Agriculture is the economic and social mainstay of some 500 million smallholder farmers, and the sector is the largest source of incomes, jobs and food security in developing countries. The inherent complexity of agricultural systems and the different regional and country contexts can enable countries, policy makers and stakeholders to identify barriers that impede the growth of agriculture, experience sharing and strategies developing to improve the policy in local contexts. (World Bank, 2017) In Thailand, agriculture has played an important role in the country from the beginning. Although its sharing sector in the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has gradually declined since the First National Economic and Social Development Plan (NESDP) was launched in 1961, agriculture still accounts for one third of total export revenue and workforce. Consequently, Thai agriculture is coming towards a crossroad. Its development can no longer depend on area expansion and burgeoning markets. Future development must be based on innovative technology and multidisciplinary fields (Chomchalow, 1993). This requires the participation of many sectors of society, especially farmers who are targeted and directly affected by the development policy. According to the Department of Agriculture Promotion report, the promotion of agricultural voluntary policy is important to community development practice. Therefore, the regulation of Thai agricultural volunteers’ management 2017 was issued by the Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives.

    INTEGRAL STUDY OF THE SILK ROADS ROADS OF DIALOGUE 21-22 JANUARY 1991. BANGKOK, THAILAND Document No. 15 Merchants, Merchandise, Markets: Archaeological Evidence in Thailand Concerning Maritime Trade Interaction Between Thailand and Other Countries Before the 16th A.D. Mrs. Amara Srisuchat 1 Merchants, Merchandise, Markets: Archaeological Evidence in Thailand Concerning Maritime Trade Interaction Between Thailand and Other Countries before the 16th A.D. Amara Srisuchat Abstract This article uses archeological evidence to indicate that humans on Thai soil had been engaged in maritime trade with other countries since prehistoric times. The inhabitants of settlements in this area already possessed a sophisticated culture and knowledge which made it possible for them to navigate sea-faring vessels, which took them on voyages and enabled them to establish outside contact before the arrival of navigators from abroad. Why then, were Thai sailors not well known to the outside world? This can partially be explained by the fact that they rarely travelled far from home as was the practice of Chinese and Arab soldiers. Furthermore, the availability of so wide a variety of resources in this region meant that there was little necessity to go so far afield in search of other, foreign commodities. Coastal settlements and ports were successfully developed to provide services, and markets were established with the local merchants who consequently become middlemen. Foreign technology was adapted to create industries which produced merchandises for export in accordance with the demand of the world market. At the same time, trading contacts with various countries had the effect of changing, to no small extent, the culture and society.

  • The Prevalence of Enterobiasis in Children Attending Mobile Health Clinic of Huachiew Chalermprakiet University
    SOUTHEAST ASIAN J TROP MED PUBLIC HEALTH THE PREVALENCE OF ENTEROBIASIS IN CHILDREN ATTENDING MOBILE HEALTH CLINIC OF HUACHIEW CHALERMPRAKIET UNIVERSITY C Nithikathkul1, B Changsap2, S Wannapinyosheep2, C Poister3 and P Boontan2 1 Department of Biology, Faculty of Science and Technology; 2 Department of Basic Medical Science, Faculty of Science and Technology; 3 Department of English, Faculty of Liberal Arts, Huachiew Chalermprakiet University, Samut Prakan Province, Thailand Abstract. A cross sectional survey of Enterobius vermicularis was carried out in 808 children in the Bangkok metropolis and nearby provinces. This was accomplished in a mobile health clinic from Huachiew Chalermprakiet University provided for communities in the areas during April 1999 to May 2000. Children 5-10 years of age were investigated for infestation of Enterobius vermicularis. Diagnosis was done by means of the transparent tape swab technique to recover eggs in the perianal region for examination under a light microscope. The average infection rate in children was 21.91% . The highest infection rate (38.59 %) was found in Ang Thong Province, while the lowest one (11.66 %) was found in Chonburi Province. The rate of infection seemed to relate to household environmental factors. The infection rate was significantly higher (p<0.05) in agricultural areas and areas farthest from urban Bangkok. Industrial and urban areas had the lower rates of infection. There was no significant difference (p>0.05) in the incidence of infection between males and females. INTRODUCTION Various studies have been done to determine the prevalence of helminth infection in Thailand. Different The pinworm, Enterobius vermicularis, is one of methods of diagnosis were utilized, including the the most common parasites infecting Homo sapiens preparation of feces for examination by Kato’s thick worldwide.

  • Development of a Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Technique
    Mahittikorn et al. Parasites & Vectors (2017) 10:394 DOI 10.1186/s13071-017-2330-2 RESEARCH Open Access Development of a loop-mediated isothermal amplification technique and comparison with quantitative real-time PCR for the rapid visual detection of canine neosporosis Aongart Mahittikorn1, Nipa Thammasonthijarern2, Amonrattana Roobthaisong3, Ruenruetai Udonsom1, Supaluk Popruk1, Sukhontha Siri4, Hirotake Mori1 and Yaowalark Sukthana1* Abstract Background: Dogs are the definitive hosts of Neospora caninum and play an important role in the transmission of the parasite. Despite the high sensitivity of existing molecular tools such as quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR), these techniques are not suitable for use in many countries because of equipment costs and difficulties in implementing them for field diagnostics. Therefore, we developed a simplified technique, loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), for the rapid visual detection of N. caninum. Methods: LAMP specificity was evaluated using a panel containing DNA from a range of different organisms. Sensitivity was evaluated by preparing 10-fold serial dilutions of N. caninum tachyzoites and comparing the results with those obtained using qPCR. Assessment of the LAMP results was determined by recognition of a colour change after amplification. The usefulness of the LAMP assay in the field was tested on 396 blood and 115 faecal samples from dogs, and one placenta from a heifer collected in Lopburi, Nakhon Pathom, Sa Kaeo, and Ratchaburi provinces, Thailand. Results: Specificity of the LAMP technique was shown by its inability to amplify DNA from non-target pathogens or healthy dogs. The detection limit was the equivalent of one genome for both LAMP and qPCR.

  • 1 4. Way of Life of Thai-Chinese People in Ratchaburi 4.1 the Availability of Shrines and Vegetarian Cafeterias Where Chinese People Live
    1 4. Way of Life of Thai-Chinese people in Ratchaburi 4.1 The Availability of Shrines and Vegetarian Cafeterias Where Chinese People Live. When the Chinese people are grouped together as a community, they often build shrines and vegetarian cafeterias. This is the cultural phenomenon that often occurs alongside. Chinese people in Ratchaburi are similar to other groups of Chinese people elsewhere in Thailand in term of gods and ancestral spirits worshiping. At the same time, they also make merit in Buddhist’s ways. Another belief that Chinese people practice is Confucianism. Basically, the concepts of Confucianism are about cultural practice, honesty, loyalty, proper respect for the seniors and family relationship, ancient rituals, as well as pursuit of knowledge.
