Organic Agriculture Project in Sukhothai

Agroecology

This Organic Agriculture Project started about ten years ago, initially with an aim to promote social benefits, and has been gradually converting an area near Sukhothai Airport into a green and environmentally friendly landscape.  The project promotes organic agriculture for production of safe food for consumption within the local community and is scaling up to supply airline catering companies and is expanding its market to the general public.  In addition, the project helps conserve local Thai wisdom and innovations of rice farming using traditional human and animal labour forces. The project produces a variety of brown/unpolished rice and organic vegetables.  Many organic fruits are available seasonally such as mango, papaya, pumpkin, banana and mango plum. Duck eggs from free range ducks raised with natural feed without any antibiotics and hormones are also available.
