Organic Agriculture in Thailand

摘要

Organic agriculture is not a recent phenomenon. Local Thai farmers have practiced traditional farming for hundred of years. Such practices have been developed and enriched through farmers' knowledge of local agro-ecology and environmentally sustainable ways of farming. Despite the imposition of modern agriculture, traditional farms continue to exist and local indigenous knowledge of sustainable farming remains. The survival of these farms is the source of the revitalization of modern organic agriculture in Thailand today.
