| 内容記述 | Durian (Durio zibethinus Murr.) is famous as the “king of fruits” and Thailand’s economically important fruit for export. As consumer demand for high quality and safe food products increased, Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) were adopted by durian farmers in Koh Sumui district, Surat Thani province, Thailand to produce safe and wholesome fruits. The purposes of this research were to study the adoption of GAP and to determine factors affecting GAP adoption of durian farmers. Structure interview was used to collect data from 129 farmers who cultivated durians under GAP. The results revealed that the farmers had the average age of 52.71 years, completed elementary education level and had the average experience of 19.89 years in durian farming. The average number of farm labourers was 3 persons while the average size of durian farm was 4.33 hectares. The average cost of durian farming was 62,092.56 bath/hectare. The source of investment came from the farmers’ own fund whereas the average income from durian productions was 141,418.80 baht/hectare. The farmers had been trained in the GAP at an average of 1.68 times/year, contacted by the extension officers and other farmers at an average of 0.02 and 0.15 times/year respectively and received GAP information at an average of 0.31 times/year. The knowledge and GAP adoption were classified at the moderate level and agreeable attitude respectively. Hypothesis testing showed that the variable factors which significantly (p <0.01) affected the adoptions of GAP were as follows: knowledge on GAP, contact with other farmers, cost of durian farming and GAP training experience. The farmers suggested that extension officers need to supervise durian GAP closely. Moreover, they should also accelerate market expansion by raising the price of the GAP durian products so that they are higher than those of conventional products. |
