COSTS RETURNS OF RICE CULTIVATION USING CHEMICAL PESTICIDES AND RICE CULTIVATION USING BIOPRODUCTS IN COMBINATION WITH CHEMICAL PESTICIDES BY FARMERS IN BANG PHLI NOI SUBDISTRICT BANG BO DISTRICT SAMUT PRAKAN PROVINCE

During this cooperative education program at the Bang Bo District Agricultural Office, Samut Prakan Province, a study was conducted on the costs and returns of rice cultivation using chemical inputs compared to using biopesticides in combination with chemical inputs among farmers in Bang Phli Noi Subdistrict, Bang Bo District, Samut Prakan Province.The objectives of this study were: To examine the costs and returns of rice cultivation using chemical inputs compared to using biopesticides in combination with chemical inputs among farmers in Bang Phli Noi Subdistrict, Bang Bo District, Samut Prakan Province. To explore the challenges of using biopesticides in rice cultivation among farmers in Bang Phli Noi Subdistrict, Bang Bo District, Samut Prakan Province. The study found that in the 2024/25 growing season, the total production cost for rice cultivation using biopesticides in combination with chemical inputs was 5,099.50 THB per rai, consisting of variable costs of 4,432.50 THB per rai and fixed costs of 667.00 THB per rai. Meanwhile, the total production cost for rice cultivation using only chemical inputs was 5,129.00 THB per rai, consisting of variable costs of 4,390.00 THB per rai and fixed costs of 739.00 THB per rai. The cost difference between the two methods was 114.50 THB per rai. Regarding the returns on rice cultivation in the 2024/25 growing season, the field using biopesticides in combination with chemical inputs yielded 1,000.00 kilograms per rai, with an average selling price of 8,500.00 THB per rai. Farmers earned a total revenue of 8,585.00 THB per rai and a profit of 3,485.50 THB per rai. On the other hand, the field using only chemical inputs yielded 1,000.00 kilograms per rai, with an average selling price of 8,500.00 THB per rai. Farmers earned a total revenue of 8,500.00 THB per rai and a profit of 3,371.00 THB per rai. The total income difference between the two cultivation methods was 114.50 THB per rai. In terms of challenges related to the procurement of biopesticides, it was found that biopesticides are difficult to obtain, with limited or no availability in certain areas. Additionally, relevant agencies do not provide continuous support for biopesticides, making this the most significant issue. Regarding the use of biopesticides, the most critical challenge is that once fresh biopesticides are mixed, they must be used immediately and cannot be stored, as their effectiveness deteriorates over time.

Mitsubishi Motors (Thailand) Co.,Ltd. This company has a zero-risk, zero-accident safety policy, and it has maintained records of all accidents that happened inside the factory in 2024.There have been 5 accidents to date, one of them was an accident that happened on the production line while the Production Engineer Assembly Department had control of it. I got this issue to be resolved as a result. by identifying issues, classifying them, and choosing solutions to address them. D using CCTV and AI cameras to identify behavior to prevent risky events from occurring by training AI with images or Equipment malfunctions, including pallets,X-Lifters, and conveyor Including designing the Concept Improvement of the software so that CCTV+AI Camera can detect it. Outcome following installation That area was accident-free after that. Avoid accidents Cut down on the losses that will happen Whether it be the costs incurred because of the accident Training new hires Resources for work or a variety of other purposes.

Center of Invention for Future and Sustainability

The " Center of Invention for Future and Sustainability Project (Continuing)" serves as a continuation of a pilot initiative focused on the retrofitting of older buildings (Vach. 7), specifically a five-story structure. The primary aim of this project is to develop methodologies for enhancing the sustainability of existing buildings in order to mitigate carbon dioxide emissions. In the execution of the Future and Sustainability Innovation Development Center Project (Continuing), a comprehensive analysis of relevant data and theoretical frameworks has been undertaken, leading to the formulation of a research methodology designed to identify optimal strategies for retrofitting older buildings to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. This approach is structured into three principal phases: the combustion of fuels associated with transportation, labor, and materials; the electricity consumption during the construction process; and the accumulation of greenhouse gases from both existing and new construction materials. The project employs an experimental research design, wherein empirical data is collected to evaluate and quantify the equivalent carbon dioxide emissions arising from the construction of new buildings compared to the retrofitting of the selected case study building. Subsequent analysis of the collected data revealed that retrofitting the existing structure—through the integration of sustainable design principles—resulted in greenhouse gas emissions of 11.88 kgCO2e/sq.m. In contrast, the emissions associated with new building construction amounted to 299.35 kgCO2e/sq.m., indicating a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions by a factor of approximately 26 when compared to the construction of new buildings.
