ROYAL " NEW THEORY "
From one of the Royal visits at the northeastern provinces of Thailand, His Majesty found out that in the area with irregular rainfall the rice yield was only 1 tung/rai. Rice plant received only the dew at night, yet struggled to survive through the season. He, therefore, has suggested to build a small water reservoir lining with plastic sheets to keep rain water in each paddy field. This is how the " New Theory " for agricultural land management comes into practice.
