Ever since the year B.E. 2499 (A.D. 1956), His Majesty the King has graciously been granting funds from the Privy Purse to finance artificial rain-making research which was carried out under the supervision of Mom Rajawongse Debariddhi Devakula. After twelve years of intensive research and experiment, the first successful attempt at making artificial rain fall in a forecasted area occurred at Pak Chong District, Nakhon Ratchasima Province, on July 1st. B.E. 2512 (A.D. 1969).

The Royal Rain-Making Research and Developmen Project, first began to offer its services to the farmers in the year B.E. 2514 (A.D. 1971), following the Royal instigation of His Majesty the King that research and development should be carried out on ways and means for making artificial rain fall in extremely parched areas where crops are being threatened. The project benefits greatly from the close co-operations between the various agencies within the Ministry of Agriculture and Co-operatives.

On October 19th. B.E. 2515 (A.D. 1972), His Majesty the King presided over an artificial rain-making display at Kang Kra Chan Reservoir, Tha Yang Dristrict, Phetchaburi Province. On this occasion, His Majesty outlined to the representatives from the Government of the Republic of Singapore the elaborate technique of seeding chemicals and dry ice from a certain altitude and over specified areas in order for condensation to occur, so that cloud-formations could be directed to a pre-determined locaton for precipitation as rainfall. The Royal Rain-Making Research and Developmen Institute, Ministry of Agriculture and Co-operatives, has also demonstrated the processes of rain-making to other interested foreign governments.
