520			_aThe study attempts to build an optimal product i on plan for rice, soybean, mungbean, groundnut, maize, small chilly, big chilly, ginger, and cotton in three districts of Prachuap Khiri Khan province , by taking into account the availability of land, labor, and capital; and the market condit i on of these crops. This is done through the use of Linear Programming model . The model reveals that within the existing cultural practices the regional income from those 9 commodities by shifting their cropping system, with the crops which can give profitable return. Rice appear to be profitable crop only in Bangsaphan, while in Tapsakae and Bangsaphannoi soybean should be grown instead of rice, utilizing paddy l and. Big chilly, small chilly and ginger are the most profitable crops which can be grown utilizing field crop land. However, unless the marketing demand can be extended, these crops can only be produce just to fulfil the existing demand . Cotton also has opportunity to grow utilizing field crop land as well as orchard land, but this crop should also be limited t o some degree, unless the cultural practices can be improved by not applying to much chemicals . Then groundnut appear to be an alternative crop that can be grow instead of cotton. Mungbean and maize appear to be l ess profitable and not recommended to be grown in the study area unless the yield can be improved more . Under the optimal production plan, land would be fully utili zed, whil e labor is enough and abundant during dry season . Capital which is required to purchase labor and other inputs, appear to be enough even without loan from Bank . Irrigation of field crop land in Bangsaphannoi and non- farm projects development are recommended to utilize the nonuse capital and labor during dry season . Note: 1 . This Research Study was completed as part of requirements for the SPRING (Asia) Program. SPRING, an acronym for Spatial Planning for Regions in Growing Economies, is an M.Sc. program jointly offered by AIT and the University of Dortmund, Germany. Under the SPRING Program a Research Study carrying 12 credits , must be conceptualized and completed within only one term, i.e. from 1st May to 31st July . Preferably, the topic should be related to the preceding District Development Workshop. The SPRING Program thus differs from other M.Sc. programs at AIT where most students write a thesis which spans at least eight months. 2 . Professor Klaus R. Kunzmann (University of Dortmund, Germany) attended the final examinations of the SPRING (Asia) students in August 1994.
