Contents, Direct Seeding: Research Strategies and Opportunities The International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) was established in 1960 by the Ford and Rockefeller Foundations with the help and approval of the Govern- ment of the Philippines. Today IRRI is one of 16 nonprofit international re- search centers supported by the Consultative Group on International Agricul- tural Research (CGIAR). The CGIAR membership comprises Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development donors, international and regional organizations, and private foundations. IRRI receives support from several CGIAR members, including the World Bank, European Union, Asian Development Bank, International Fund for Ag- ricultural Development, Rockefeller Foundation, and the international aid agen- cies of the following governments: Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, People’s Republic of China, Denmark, France, Germany, India, Islamic Republic of Iran, Japan, Republic of Korea, The Netherlands, Norway, Philippines, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Thailand, United Kingdom, and United States.

Fukai RESEARCH ISSUES IDENTIFIED DURING THE DISCUSSION SESSIONS 381 Contents v Foreword Asian rice systems are undergoing various types of change in response to economic factors and technological opportunities in farming. One such change has been a shift from transplanting to direct-seeding methods for rice establishment. While the rising cost of labor has provided economic incentives for direct seeding, the availability of short-duration rice varieties and chemical weed control methods has made such a shift economically profitable. Direct-seeding methods have also played a critical role in the intensification of Asian rice systems. In the future, in addition to the rising cost of labor, rice farmers of Asia will have to deal with an anticipated increasing scarcity of irrigation water as the demand for water from the urban and industrial sectors expands. Direct-seeding methods, especially dry seeding, may help in achiev- ing higher water-use efficiency. Despite the underlying trend toward direct seeding, the relative importance of direct seeding and transplanting varies among regions and ecosystems. Traditional direct-seeding systems with low productivity dominate in some areas, whereas suc- cessful transformations to high-productivity systems have occurred in others. Trans- planting culture may also continue to dominate under certain environmental and socioeconomic conditions. IRRI, together with the Rice Research Institute, Thailand, organized an interna- tional workshop on Direct Seeding in Asian Rice Systems: Strategic Issues and Oppor- tunities, held on 25-28 January 2000 in Bangkok, Thailand. The objectives of this workshop were to review past patterns of changes in crop establishment and factors explaining such patterns, assess the likely future patterns of change in crop establish- ment in various ecosystems and regions, and identify strategic research issues for im- proving rice productivity by manipulating crop establishment methods and related factors. IRRI and national agricultural research and extension system partners are al- ready making considerable efforts to develop more productive and sustainable direct- seeding systems. Although two previous workshops sponsored by IRRI (in 1990 and 1995) focused on the wet-seeding method, this workshop emphasized dry seeding. A cross-ecosystems perspective was taken so that the output of the workshop would be relevant to all rice production environments. The workshop helped identify strategic research issues on crop establishment methods covering aspects such as land prepara- tion; weed, water, and crop management; and crop improvement. This publication contains the papers presented at the workshop and the major research issues identified during the group discussions. We hope that this will be a useful source of information as we move forward in this important theme of research. RONALD P. CANTRELL Director General vii Acknowledgments Many people contributed to the success of the international workshop upon which this publication is based. The workshop was co-hosted by the Rice Research Insti- tute, Thailand. Boriboon Somrith, IRRI Liaison Scientist in Bangkok, provided the necessary logistical support to the workshop. The overall organizing and technical review committee consisted of S. Pandey (Chair), M. Mortimer, L. Wade, and T.P. Tuong. Ludy Velasco supported the organizing committee from the very beginning and assisted in the editing of this volume while L. Damian and Aranya Sapprasert provided the necessary secretarial services during the workshop. We thank T. George, K.L. Heong, V. Balasubramanian, J. Hill, D. Dawe, V.P. Singh, and M.H.

Kittiampol Sudprasert Anuch Nampinyo Srayut Kuanmuang Napatsakorn Supfuengfoo College of Logistics and Supply chain Suansunandha Rajabhat University 1 U-thong Nok Road, Dusit, Bangkok 10300 Thailand www.ssru.ac.th +662 160 1000 E-Mail : [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT The objective of this research is to study the retail management and consumer’s purchase behavior toward the convenience stores in Nakhonphathom. The samples were 400 consumers in Nakhonphathom who have purchased products from convenience stores. Questionnaires were used in the data collection. The data were analyzed by the methodsof percentage, means, standard deviation, T-test, One-Way Analysis of Variance and Chi-square test. The research results found that most sample groups : Most of the respondents acknowledge that convenience stores contain the attributes of services, products selection, convenience, physical evidence and product quality at the high level. The results of the hypotheses testing at the statistical significance level of 0.05 are as follows: Consumer’s purchasing behavior in terms of the average spending has relationship with age, occupation, perceived services, perceived convenience, perceived physical evidence and perceived product quality. Consumer’s purchasing behavior in terms of the average shopping frequency has relationship with gender, age, occupation, perceived convenience and the perceived physical evidence. Consumer’s purchasing behavior in terms of name of the selected convenience stores has relationship with age, education, average monthly income and perceived product quality.
