Thai king bhumibol In Thailand many agriculturists own less than 20 rai of land are unable to produce enough to feed themselves as their livelihood also depend on the rain. How can the small pieces of land that these people have as their only capital investment produce a sufficient crop to provide for their basic needs. And at the same time how can they protect themselves from the uncertainties of nature.
His Majesty has developed a theory to enable these people to adequately support themselves through crises.
His Majestys new theory advocates that people living on sections of land smaller than 10 to 20 rai plan the use of the land and water they have in the most efficient manner possible to be able to produce enough rice for the whole year. The land should be divided into four sections. The first section of three rai is a pond. The second section of five rai is for planting rice. The third section of five rai is for growing various food crops for the whole years consumption. Excess vegetables can be sold. The fourth section of five rai is the living area and for raising animals.
His Majestys new theory is proven applicable and successful due to his vision and his ingenuity to relieve his subjects from hardship in life.
