This "New Theory" was based on the fact that an average farmer owns about 10-15 rai of farm land, this total amount of land should be divided into 3 parts for the following functions:
Part I : 30% of the total farm area (~3 rai) is reserved for water reservoir. The pond should be built at 4 meter deep with capacity to hold 19,000 m3 of rain water. This amount of water would be enough for agricultural use all year. The pond itself could be used not only for agriculture but for aquaculture as well to add more income to the farmers.
Part II : 30%+30% of the total farm area (~10 rai) is the agricultural land which is further divided into 2sections. The first half (5 rai) is paddy rice and the remaining (5 rai) is field crops or fruit trees depending on the condition of land and market.
His Majesty has calculated the water requirement for cultivation to be amounted to 1,000 m3 /rai in the dry season. Therefore, the total water reserve for 10 rai is added up to 10,000 m3 .
Part iii : The remaining 10% of the total farm area (~2 rai) will be used as residential area, roads, dikes, draining canals, as well as for family gardening and animal husbandry.
