After going through a season long in-
tensive training in dry season 2014,
the trained farmers of Cambodia and
Thailand have set up 120 field ex-
periments at 60 action research sites
in 15 districts of 5 provinces in the
wet season of 2014. The collabora-
tive enquiry and innovation process
continues to bring about the needed
changes in farmers’ capacity to man-
age their own resources to achieve
higher productivity of land, labour,
capital and water. More specifically,
the collaborative action research trials
are concentrating on how to develop
low-cost technologies for healthy and
profitable crops, how to raise the pro-
ductivity of their crops using princi-
ples of System of Rice Intensification
(SRI) and integrating with indigenous
knowledge, plus other complemen-
tary crop mangement principles, and
how to improve their farming systems
(rice - legumes, rice-fish culture, rice-
duck, rice-mushroom, etc).
They are exploring new and modified
options based on the need and choice
of their community so that the process
of experimentation and innovation
could yield locally suitable technolo-
gies to meet the larger goals of food
sufficiency and profitability.
The year 2014 was declared as International
Year of Family Farming that place small-
holder and family farming at the center of
national regional and international agricul-
tural, environmental and social policies and
emphasizes their role as agents for alleviat-
ing rural poverty and ensuring food secu-
rity for all. The SRI-LMB takes pride in
exploring these visionary ideas into action
through innovative research and extension
and put farmers at the center and strength-
ens their own efforts, particularly as they
are being most affected by, and are adapting
to, climate change variability. With chang-
ing agricultural farm scenario where women
farmers not only provide labour but also
play an important role in all aspects of crop
cultivation, conservation and commerce,
the SRI-LMB ensures 50% participation
of women farmers and works to empower
them facilitating their participation in deci-
sion making and their equitable participa-
tion in flexible training programmes and
community development efforts. The story
of Ms. Thavee Yaknam, which you will read
in this Volume, is just an example and in-
spiration for all of us to intensify our col-
laborative efforts to realize the ambitious
yet achievable goal of equitable and inclu-
sive development. Let us join our efforts.
Together we can do it...

Completion of trainings on farmer
participatory action research in Thailand & Cambodia
The season long train-
ing designed on Central
Farmer Participatory Ac-
tion Research (CFPAR)
involving farmers, districts
and provincial trainers was
successfully concluded in
Thailand and Cambodia.
The CFPAR, one for each
province, was designed for
capacity building of farmer
trainers (FTs) and district
trainers (DTs) in experi-
mentation, development
of curricula on scientific,
technical, social, and man-
agerial aspects. Approxi-
ametly, 120 farmer trainers,
24/province from 5 prov-
inces, two from Thailand
(Surin and Uttaradit) and 3
from Cambodia (Kampong
Speu, Kampot and Takeo)
received intensive training
on smart way of rice culti-
vation revolving around the
principles of SRI. The ac-
tivities included collection,
compilation, analyses and
interpretation of yield and
cost benefit data along with
training on bookkeeping
and farmers participatory
action research manage-
ment aspects. These trained
farmers are now leading ac-
tion research at 60 action
research sites and handling
approximately 120 field
experiments on range of
management practices.
One hundred six (106) par-
ticipants including women
and landless actively partici-
pated in season long Central
Farmers Participatory Action
Research (CFPAR) trainings
that started early August 2014
in Kampong Speu province of
Cambodia.
As a part of CFPAR, a Field
Day was organized on 28th
November 2014 at Agricul-
tural Farmer Training and
Research Center in Kampong
Speu province by country of-
fice of the SRI-LMB Project
hosted at General Directorate
of Agriculture (GDA), Min-
istry of Agriculture, Forestry
and Fisheries (MAFF, Cam-
bodia).
The Field Day marked the
closing day of CFPAR and
aimed to culminate and
summarize the learnings from
season long CFPAR activities.
The purpose of the Field Day
was to (a) bring participants
and like-minded individuals
to participate in the evalua-
tion of experiments conduct-
ed at CFPAR; (b) evaluate
results from field experimen-
tation; (c) get impression and
advice from other stakehold-
ers and (d) plan for the next
Farmers Participatory Action
Research (FPAR).
CFPAR trained farmers are
taking lead in setting up ac-
tion research in their com-
munities as a part of FPAR
involving other farmers and
community members.

“Single, younger
and wider
spaced rice plants
taking climate
variablility
in its stride ...”
Younger single seedling (“Tn Dei-
yw” in Thai) & wider spacing led to
tremendous response in plant’s vigor
that resulted to “ZERO lodging” of
the rice plants in Surin grown with
SRI. The response was not only lim-
ited to commonly grown Homali
105 (Jasmine rice) rice but also niche
varieties like Black Jasmine, Rice
Berry and glutinous varieties like Ka
Kho 6 (RD 6). Healthy and vigor-
ous growth are paying rich dividends
to the farmers and translating into
higher yield, which many SMART
farmers reported in terms of 4.6-5.5
Tons / ha, which is more than double
compared to the normal yield.
This was witnessed during a “Farmer
Exchange Visit” held in Surin, Thai-
land (10-13 Nov 2014) organized by
the Department of Non-Formal Edu-
cation, Surin in cooperation with AIT,
Thailand and FAO. The purpose of the
visit was to foster knowledge exchange
forfuellingsimilarinnovationpathways
in other project countries - Cambodia,
Lao PDR and Vietnam. A common di-
alogue platform was introduced where
farmers and district trainers from proj-
ect countries and Thailand could share
their ideas and “innovated” themselves
for ongoing/upcoming FPAR activities
in their respective countries.
The objectives of the exchange visit
were: (1) to strengthen the capac-
ity of farmer and district trainers in
designing, conducting, evaluating
and managing experiments through
Farmer Participatory Action Research
(FPAR), and (2) to strengthen regional
networking on matters related to the
implementation of SRI research and
development among farmers, exten-
sion agents and research institution
representatives. The two days visit to
SRI-LMB project sites, those included
local experimentation and SRI dem-
onstration fields in Chumphonburi
and Srikhoraphum districts of Surin,
extended cross-border peer-peer learn-
ing and enhanced the momentum for
learning and encouragement among
the learners.
The farmers and trainers are very hope-
ful to have a great start next season
with more area under SRI in Thailand
and also in Lao PDR who are going to
initiate their field set up in dry season
this year.

SRI-LMB project has commissioned
a group of consultants to conduct
the desk review on access to produc-
tive agriculture land for smallholder
farmers, landless and land poor to
identify the common characteristics,
and to negate evidence that illustrates
the process of access to and control
of productive agriculture land, and
to investigate the underlying process
behind the current occurrence of
land distribution in Cambodia, Laos,
Thailand and Vietnam.
The research analyzes its socio-eco-
nomic and environmental impact on
sustainable livelihoods, choice and
equal access to land of the landless,
land poor and smallholder famers.
This work and another policy research
study, which is being undertaken by
another group of consultants, aim
to analyze public and private policy
environment and practices towards
smallholder farmers and small-scale
agriculture in the context of food secu-
rity and climate change in the Lower
Mekong River Basin countries.
These studies will feed to policy advo-
cacy and communication dialogue ac-
tivities of the SRI-LMB led by Oxfam,
one of the partners of the SRI-LMB.
Research on access to productive agriculture land for
smallholder farmers, landless and land poor
A three-day intensive work-
shop on “Small-scale Crop
Production Equipment for
System of Rice Intensifica-
tion (SRI)” was jointly orga-
nized by SRI-Rice of Cornell
University and ACISAI. The
workshop brought 35 equip-
ment specialists from 12
countries mainly from Africa,
USA, UK and from many
Asian countries such as India,
Indonesia, Malaysia, Sri Lan-
ka, Vietnam, Cambodia and
Thailand. Farmers from SRI-
LMB project and FAO also
participated in the workshop.
A field demonstration was
organized by the Thailand
Weekend Farmers Network,
in Pathumthani province
where they have been adapt-
ing SRI techniques & equip-
ment. The participants ob-
served field demonstration of
equipment for transplanting,
weeding, seedling raising, etc.
As a follow up, a three-year
plan to design, test and enable
manufacture and distribution
of SRI equipment and techni-
cal documentation along with
standard protocols for testing
equipment was proposed. The
Workshop concluded with
the high hope on improving
current informal SRI equip-
ment as a community practice
through effective innovative
ideas and knowledge sharing.
A Mini Workshop was
organized from 19-
20 October 2014 by
Programme Management
Unit (PMU)/country of-
fice of the SRI-LMB host-
ed by the Department of
Agriculture, Extension and
Cooperatives(DAEC), Lao
PDR.
The workshop was orga-
nized to review the overall
project goals, key activities
and outcome, and discuss
the project implementa-
tion plans and also to fa-
cilitate some exercise on
participatory information
gathering tools for design-
ing of relevant CFPAR
field experiments, making
use of baseline survey.
The workshop paved the
way for the implementa-
tion of field activities in
dry season of 2014 in three
provinces of Lao PDR,
Khammouan, Savanna-
khet and Vientiane, iden-
tified by the DAEC for
the implementation of the
SRI-LMB fieldwork.

The program aims to enhance participant’s knowledge
and understanding of the multidimensional factors lead-
ing to smallholder agriculture transformation, and to
stress the interaction of factors within the framework of
the institutional and the management system.
Dr. Abha Mishra, Co-Director of the ACISAI shared
learning on System of Rice Intensification and good
practices for sustainable agriculture intensification in-
volving rainfed small-scale farmers of Thailand and
of Lower Mekong River Basin countries for profit-
ability, prosperity and environmental sustainability.
Dr. Avishek Datta, one of the Steering Committee mem-
ber of the ACISAI and Assistant Professor, AIT highlight-
ed on “Smallholder Farmers to be part of the Solution
of Global Food Security from Southern and Southeast

Farmer in Focus
Ms.Thavee Yaknam from Ban Non
Muang,Tha Tum district of Surin
province, Thailand is one of the
SMART Farmers who participated
in season long CFPAR in Tha Tum,
Surin organized earlier this year. She
is also a Farmer Trainer who is not
only leading in setting up of new ex-
periments with farmers of her village
but also converting her entire tradi-
tional rice crop under SRI manage-
ment. She is enjoined by a group of
farmers in her community and has
started adapting SRI management
for ‘Blackberry’ rice variety, which
sells in market at higher price, almost
triple as compared to local varieties.
She is very positive that SRI enabled
her to reduce cost of production to
earn better livelihood. SRI crop in
her fields did remarkably well un-
der adverse weather conditions this
year, which received much less rain
in early months of the rice growing
season. She harvested almost double,
i.e., 6 tons/ha, compared to the pre-
vious years. She encouraged visitors
to visit her farm and her SRI crop.
She continues to encourage other
farmers in her community to join
her innovative journey that she start-
ed with SRI.
“SRI is good for me because I am able to harvest good and profitable crop even
with less seed, fertilizers and with less water!”
Khun Mon, another
SMART Farmer (partici-
pated in season long train-
ing in Surin province) is
setting innovative experi-
ments in his organic farm.
He took initiative on his
own to explore various
possibilities of rice crop
management under the
principles of SRI that in-
cluded testing ‘spacing’,
‘number of seedling’ water
management--maintain-
ing ‘just moist condition’-
-by both direct sowing
and transplanting young-
er seedlings (at two leaf
stage).
After few months, there
was a transformational
change in the crop stand.
Single seedling transplants
produced on an average
38 - 40 tillers that too full
with grains. His learning
did not stop there. In early
November this year, there
was strong wind in his
area and he and his farmer
colleagues observed that
not a single plant lodged
from his SRI experimental
plots managed organically,
whereas all direct sown
plants were lodged. Khun
Mon continuously feed
his soil with all crop resi-
dues and even add fresh
biomass to the soil such
as bamboo leaves continu-
ously. One can witness the
‘living’ soil in his farm.
He is waiting for the next
rice season to test more in-
novative ideas and whole
set of SRI practice and
happy to continue to in-
spire other farmers in rais-
ing sustainable organic
SRI rice production.
The Thai PMU office at
ACISAI and provincial of-
fice managed by Depart-
ment of Non-formal and
Informal Education, Min-
istry of Education in Surin
are continuously stand by
these efforts for their suc-
cess in charting innovative
pathways of rice cultiva-
tion under SRI principle.
“I feed
the soil
to
feed my
rice”

Newsletter Vol 2 Issue 2

  • 1. SRI-LMB Newsletter Vol. 2, Issue 2: Year 2014 A bi-annual newsletter published by the SRI-LMB Project (A Project Funded by the European Union), Asian Center of Innovation for Sustainable Agriculture Intensification (ACISAI), Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) The views expressed in this publication do not necessarily reflect the views of the European Commission. This project is funded by the European Union This project is implemented by the Asian Institute of Technology. IN FOCUS InthisIssue: ACISAI Steering Committee meeting page 5 Farmer Exchange Visit 2014 page 3 Farmer in Focus page 6 CFPAR completion in Cambodia & Thailand page 2 Mini Workshop in Laos page 4 SRI-LMB’s momentum for innovation begins at 60 action research sites... SRI-LMB welcomes new staffs page 7 Message from Team Leader SRI-LMB action research sites in 5 selected provinces of Cambodia & Thailand Farmer Trainers at CFPAR train- ing, Kampong Speu, Cambodia (left) Weeding by SMART Farmer, Tron, Uttaradit, Thailand (right) After going through a season long in- tensive training in dry season 2014, the trained farmers of Cambodia and Thailand have set up 120 field ex- periments at 60 action research sites in 15 districts of 5 provinces in the wet season of 2014. The collabora- tive enquiry and innovation process continues to bring about the needed changes in farmers’ capacity to man- age their own resources to achieve higher productivity of land, labour, capital and water. More specifically, the collaborative action research trials are concentrating on how to develop low-cost technologies for healthy and profitable crops, how to raise the pro- ductivity of their crops using princi- ples of System of Rice Intensification (SRI) and integrating with indigenous knowledge, plus other complemen- tary crop mangement principles, and how to improve their farming systems (rice - legumes, rice-fish culture, rice- duck, rice-mushroom, etc). They are exploring new and modified options based on the need and choice of their community so that the process of experimentation and innovation could yield locally suitable technolo- gies to meet the larger goals of food sufficiency and profitability. The year 2014 was declared as International Year of Family Farming that place small- holder and family farming at the center of national regional and international agricul- tural, environmental and social policies and emphasizes their role as agents for alleviat- ing rural poverty and ensuring food secu- rity for all. The SRI-LMB takes pride in exploring these visionary ideas into action through innovative research and extension and put farmers at the center and strength- ens their own efforts, particularly as they are being most affected by, and are adapting to, climate change variability. With chang- ing agricultural farm scenario where women farmers not only provide labour but also play an important role in all aspects of crop cultivation, conservation and commerce, the SRI-LMB ensures 50% participation of women farmers and works to empower them facilitating their participation in deci- sion making and their equitable participa- tion in flexible training programmes and community development efforts. The story of Ms. Thavee Yaknam, which you will read in this Volume, is just an example and in- spiration for all of us to intensify our col- laborative efforts to realize the ambitious yet achievable goal of equitable and inclu- sive development. Let us join our efforts. Together we can do it... - Dr. Abha Mishra
  • 2. Vol. 2, Issue 2 : Year 20142 Completion of trainings on farmer participatory action research in Thailand & Cambodia The season long train- ing designed on Central Farmer Participatory Ac- tion Research (CFPAR) involving farmers, districts and provincial trainers was successfully concluded in Thailand and Cambodia. The CFPAR, one for each province, was designed for capacity building of farmer trainers (FTs) and district trainers (DTs) in experi- mentation, development of curricula on scientific, technical, social, and man- agerial aspects. Approxi- ametly, 120 farmer trainers, 24/province from 5 prov- inces, two from Thailand (Surin and Uttaradit) and 3 from Cambodia (Kampong Speu, Kampot and Takeo) received intensive training on smart way of rice culti- vation revolving around the principles of SRI. The ac- tivities included collection, compilation, analyses and interpretation of yield and cost benefit data along with training on bookkeeping and farmers participatory action research manage- ment aspects. These trained farmers are now leading ac- tion research at 60 action research sites and handling approximately 120 field experiments on range of management practices. One hundred six (106) par- ticipants including women and landless actively partici- pated in season long Central Farmers Participatory Action Research (CFPAR) trainings that started early August 2014 in Kampong Speu province of Cambodia. As a part of CFPAR, a Field Day was organized on 28th November 2014 at Agricul- tural Farmer Training and Research Center in Kampong Speu province by country of- fice of the SRI-LMB Project hosted at General Directorate of Agriculture (GDA), Min- istry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF, Cam- bodia). The Field Day marked the closing day of CFPAR and aimed to culminate and summarize the learnings from season long CFPAR activities. The purpose of the Field Day was to (a) bring participants and like-minded individuals to participate in the evalua- tion of experiments conduct- ed at CFPAR; (b) evaluate results from field experimen- tation; (c) get impression and advice from other stakehold- ers and (d) plan for the next Farmers Participatory Action Research (FPAR). CFPAR trained farmers are taking lead in setting up ac- tion research in their com- munities as a part of FPAR involving other farmers and community members.

  • 3. Vol. 2 , Issue 2 : Year 20143 “Single, younger and wider spaced rice plants taking climate variablility in its stride ...” Younger single seedling (“Tn Dei- yw” in Thai) & wider spacing led to tremendous response in plant’s vigor that resulted to “ZERO lodging” of the rice plants in Surin grown with SRI. The response was not only lim- ited to commonly grown Homali 105 (Jasmine rice) rice but also niche varieties like Black Jasmine, Rice Berry and glutinous varieties like Ka Kho 6 (RD 6). Healthy and vigor- ous growth are paying rich dividends to the farmers and translating into higher yield, which many SMART farmers reported in terms of 4.6-5.5 Tons / ha, which is more than double compared to the normal yield. This was witnessed during a “Farmer Exchange Visit” held in Surin, Thai- land (10-13 Nov 2014) organized by the Department of Non-Formal Edu- cation, Surin in cooperation with AIT, Thailand and FAO. The purpose of the visit was to foster knowledge exchange forfuellingsimilarinnovationpathways in other project countries - Cambodia, Lao PDR and Vietnam. A common di- alogue platform was introduced where farmers and district trainers from proj- ect countries and Thailand could share their ideas and “innovated” themselves for ongoing/upcoming FPAR activities in their respective countries. The objectives of the exchange visit were: (1) to strengthen the capac- ity of farmer and district trainers in designing, conducting, evaluating and managing experiments through Farmer Participatory Action Research (FPAR), and (2) to strengthen regional networking on matters related to the implementation of SRI research and development among farmers, exten- sion agents and research institution representatives. The two days visit to SRI-LMB project sites, those included local experimentation and SRI dem- onstration fields in Chumphonburi and Srikhoraphum districts of Surin, extended cross-border peer-peer learn- ing and enhanced the momentum for learning and encouragement among the learners. The farmers and trainers are very hope- ful to have a great start next season with more area under SRI in Thailand and also in Lao PDR who are going to initiate their field set up in dry season this year.

  • 4. Vol. 2, Issue 2 : Year 20144 SRI-LMB project has commissioned a group of consultants to conduct the desk review on access to produc- tive agriculture land for smallholder farmers, landless and land poor to identify the common characteristics, and to negate evidence that illustrates the process of access to and control of productive agriculture land, and to investigate the underlying process behind the current occurrence of land distribution in Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam. The research analyzes its socio-eco- nomic and environmental impact on sustainable livelihoods, choice and equal access to land of the landless, land poor and smallholder famers. This work and another policy research study, which is being undertaken by another group of consultants, aim to analyze public and private policy environment and practices towards smallholder farmers and small-scale agriculture in the context of food secu- rity and climate change in the Lower Mekong River Basin countries. These studies will feed to policy advo- cacy and communication dialogue ac- tivities of the SRI-LMB led by Oxfam, one of the partners of the SRI-LMB. Research on access to productive agriculture land for smallholder farmers, landless and land poor A three-day intensive work- shop on “Small-scale Crop Production Equipment for System of Rice Intensifica- tion (SRI)” was jointly orga- nized by SRI-Rice of Cornell University and ACISAI. The workshop brought 35 equip- ment specialists from 12 countries mainly from Africa, USA, UK and from many Asian countries such as India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Sri Lan- ka, Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand. Farmers from SRI- LMB project and FAO also participated in the workshop. A field demonstration was organized by the Thailand Weekend Farmers Network, in Pathumthani province where they have been adapt- ing SRI techniques & equip- ment. The participants ob- served field demonstration of equipment for transplanting, weeding, seedling raising, etc. As a follow up, a three-year plan to design, test and enable manufacture and distribution of SRI equipment and techni- cal documentation along with standard protocols for testing equipment was proposed. The Workshop concluded with the high hope on improving current informal SRI equip- ment as a community practice through effective innovative ideas and knowledge sharing. A Mini Workshop was organized from 19- 20 October 2014 by Programme Management Unit (PMU)/country of- fice of the SRI-LMB host- ed by the Department of Agriculture, Extension and Cooperatives(DAEC), Lao PDR. The workshop was orga- nized to review the overall project goals, key activities and outcome, and discuss the project implementa- tion plans and also to fa- cilitate some exercise on participatory information gathering tools for design- ing of relevant CFPAR field experiments, making use of baseline survey. The workshop paved the way for the implementa- tion of field activities in dry season of 2014 in three provinces of Lao PDR, Khammouan, Savanna- khet and Vientiane, iden- tified by the DAEC for the implementation of the SRI-LMB fieldwork.

  • 5. Vol. 2 , Issue 2 : Year 20145 On 4th December 2014, the Asian Center of Innovation for Sustainable Agriculture Intensification (ACISAI) conducted its Second Steering Com- mittee (SC) meeting held under chairmanship of Dr. Shobhakar Dhakal. The meeting was attended by all members and Co-Directors of the ACISAI Center. New joint publications, joint projects, support to the student research and development of professional master courses were discussed and agreed as plans for the ACISAI Center. The ongoing projects, activities, workshops, exchange visits were shared and discussed. Dr. Anil Kumar Anal was unanimously elected as next rotational chair of the SC. The next meeting will take place in May 2015 coinciding with the regional plan- ning and review workshop of the SRI LMB project. Agriculture professionals from Ethiopia visited ACISAI center on 25th September 2014, as a part of Professional Development Training and Exposure Visit Program on “Smallholder Agriculture Transformation and Good Prac- tices in Thailand”. This is a customized program specially designed in response to a recent request from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Project Capacity to Improve Agriculture and Food Security (USAID-CIAFS) in Ethiopia. Agri. officials from Ethiopia visit ACISAI Center The program aims to enhance participant’s knowledge and understanding of the multidimensional factors lead- ing to smallholder agriculture transformation, and to stress the interaction of factors within the framework of the institutional and the management system. Dr. Abha Mishra, Co-Director of the ACISAI shared learning on System of Rice Intensification and good practices for sustainable agriculture intensification in- volving rainfed small-scale farmers of Thailand and of Lower Mekong River Basin countries for profit- ability, prosperity and environmental sustainability.

  • 6. Vol. 2, Issue 2 : Year 2014 6 Farmer in Focus Ms.Thavee Yaknam from Ban Non Muang,Tha Tum district of Surin province, Thailand is one of the SMART Farmers who participated in season long CFPAR in Tha Tum, Surin organized earlier this year. She is also a Farmer Trainer who is not only leading in setting up of new ex- periments with farmers of her village but also converting her entire tradi- tional rice crop under SRI manage- ment. She is enjoined by a group of farmers in her community and has started adapting SRI management for ‘Blackberry’ rice variety, which sells in market at higher price, almost triple as compared to local varieties. She is very positive that SRI enabled her to reduce cost of production to earn better livelihood. SRI crop in her fields did remarkably well un- der adverse weather conditions this year, which received much less rain in early months of the rice growing season. She harvested almost double, i.e., 6 tons/ha, compared to the pre- vious years. She encouraged visitors to visit her farm and her SRI crop. She continues to encourage other farmers in her community to join her innovative journey that she start- ed with SRI. “SRI is good for me because I am able to harvest good and profitable crop even with less seed, fertilizers and with less water!” Khun Mon, another SMART Farmer (partici- pated in season long train- ing in Surin province) is setting innovative experi- ments in his organic farm. He took initiative on his own to explore various possibilities of rice crop management under the principles of SRI that in- cluded testing ‘spacing’, ‘number of seedling’ water management--maintain- ing ‘just moist condition’- -by both direct sowing and transplanting young- er seedlings (at two leaf stage). After few months, there was a transformational change in the crop stand. Single seedling transplants produced on an average 38 - 40 tillers that too full with grains. His learning did not stop there. In early November this year, there was strong wind in his area and he and his farmer colleagues observed that not a single plant lodged from his SRI experimental plots managed organically, whereas all direct sown plants were lodged. Khun Mon continuously feed his soil with all crop resi- dues and even add fresh biomass to the soil such as bamboo leaves continu- ously. One can witness the ‘living’ soil in his farm. He is waiting for the next rice season to test more in- novative ideas and whole set of SRI practice and happy to continue to in- spire other farmers in rais- ing sustainable organic SRI rice production. The Thai PMU office at ACISAI and provincial of- fice managed by Depart- ment of Non-formal and Informal Education, Min- istry of Education in Surin are continuously stand by these efforts for their suc- cess in charting innovative pathways of rice cultiva- tion under SRI principle. “I feed the soil to feed my rice” Healthy SRI crop at Khun Mon’s farm, Chumphonburi district, Surin, Thailand
