and furniture. As for the profitability of SRAS, the
system of rubber with pineapple has the highest
economic return but requires more farm resources
and input. The rubber-banana mixture is also very
profitable. The rubber-chili combination is less
lucrative due to diseases and intensive management.
Among rubber-fruit combinations, rubber-salacca
shows the highest net income it but requires more
farm input. The Guava and gnetum mixtures are also
profitable since the cost of production and management
is low smallholding farmers practicing mixed farming
are generally satisfied with various input-output net
profit. Many farmers are less satisfied with family
income and savings. For the sustainable profit from
SRAS, Thai government should concern with (1)
availability of local capital (credit) and price
insurance, (2) training and technology for diseases
and pest control, as well as management skills, (3)
improving transportation systems, (4) labor sharing
systems to alleviate labor shortage problems, and (5)
strengthening farmer institutions for price negotiation
and decreasing cost of input. In SRAS development
strategies for the southern Thailand, there should be
(1) at the national level improvement in price and
marketing of agroforestry products, (2) at the farm
level, appropriate technology for higher productivity,
better farm efficiency and reduction risk, and (3) at
the regional level, improvement in co-ordination
between stakeholder agencies.
